LehenkariFrom each group, the highest grade was chosen. All images are from posterior recesses with HE staining; 5x magnification on the left, 20x magnification on the right panel. In pictures A and B, a strong synovitis in a vehicle-treated rat is seen. In C-D, a slightly milder synovitis is seen in a calcipotriol-treated rat. Pictures E-F represent a dexamethasone-treated rat with strong synovitis. Also note the thinner synovium in the tibial side of calcipotriol-treated knee (C) compared to other knees (A, E).
