We report the use of immunologic methods for detecting specific alterations in human osteoarthritic cartilage. Monoclonal antibodies with specificities for proteoglycans and link proteins have been used to define immunogenic sites in these molecules. We have identified 1 site in the protein core, 1

Forty-nine specimens of human cartilage were taken from 3 sites on the tibial plateau (center of osteoarthritic lesion, edge of lesion, and remote site) and graded histologically by the scale of Mankin. The tissue was homogenized and centrifuged to obtain an insoluble pellet. This was resuspended in

Transglutaminases (TGases) (E.C. 2.3.2.13) catalyze a posttranslational modification of proteins and are associated with biomineralization in growth plate cartilage. Type I1 TGase participates in the activation of latent transforming growth factor P (TGFP), a crucial factor for both normal cartilage
