Figure 1

C-terminal parathyroid hormone (C-PTHrP) concentrations in synovial fluid samples of human T lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) carrier patients and non-carrier patients with osteoarthritis. Synovial fluids were obtained from knee joints of HTLV-I carriers (n = 22) and non-carriers (n = 58) with primary osteoarthritis. The concentration of C-terminal (104–141) PTHrP was measured by radioimmunoassay. Filled circles, IgM-positive HTLV-I carriers; triangles and bars, means ± SD.
