ABSTRACT:
The invention discloses methods of detecting proteoglycans in synovial fluid and methods of monitoring treatment of diseases characterized by breakdown of proteoglycans into synovial fluid. A test sample of synovial fluid is contacted with antibodies specifically bindable with proteoglycan, the antibodies being bound to a solid support. Bound proteoglycan is then contacted with detectably labeled antibody specifically bindable with said proteoglycan and the detectable label is then detected.
