Transverse observational, monocentric exploratory study based on physiopathological evaluation Phase of identification/characterization of biomarkers. In a second phase, investigators might also considered a multicentre study with a greater number of patients as well as with osteoarthritis patients in order to validate the specificity of the results obtained in RA. Investigators will prospectively recruit 10 patients with rheumatoid arthritis suffering from an episode of acute arthritis and requiring joint puncture. Investigators will analyse the cellular component of the joint fluid. It is an interventional clinical trial since one extra blood sample of 30 ml of blood will be collected.
