  • Cartilage intermediate layer protein 2 C1 and its use to differentiate osteoarthritis from rheumatoid arthritis and non-disease conditions
    Patent number: 8663944
    Abstract: A method for differentiation of osteoarthritis from rheumatoid arthritis and non-disease conditions in a sample, comprising measuring in the sample the concentration of human cartilage intermediate layer protein 2 (CILP-2) in body fluids and more specifically, measuring in the sample the concentration of the N-terminal part of CILP-2 (2C1) or fragments thereof.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 17, 2010
    Date of Patent: March 4, 2014

  • METHOD TO DETECT TISSUE DEGRADATION LEADING TO INFLAMMATION
    Publication number: 20130084584
    Abstract: This invention relates generally to a method, an assay and a kit for determining a tissue degradation process that leads to inflammatory responses opening up for a vicious circle of increased tissue destruction. More specifically the invention relates to kits and methods for an assay that can analyzee human samples, for the presence of a COMP fragment complex that have activated complement exemplified by the complex between COMP and complement factor C3b or natural breakdown fragments of C3b.
