Biomarkers

A neo-epitope fragment of type I collagen generated by MMP activity, quantifying pathological soft tissue destruction and extracellular matrix turnover.

A neo-epitope fragment of type II collagen generated by matrix metalloproteinase activity, enabling direct assessment of cartilage degradation and turnover.

A matrix metalloproteinase-generated fragment of type III collagen, reflecting extracellular matrix remodeling and enabling assessment of fibrotic activity.

A fragment of the N-terminal propeptide of type IIB fibrillar collagen, enabling non-invasive monitoring of cartilage formation and chondrocyte anabolic activity in joint diseases such as osteoarthritis.
