Figure 2From: Altered expression of inflammatory cytokines in primary osteoarthritis by human T lymphotropic virus type I retrovirus infection: a cross-sectional studyCorrelation between C-terminal parathyroid hormone (C-PTHrP) concentrations and (a) soluble IL-2 receptor (sIL-2R), (b) IL-6 and (c) deoxypyridinoline (DPD) in synovial fluid samples of human T lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I) carriers with osteoarthritis. The concentrations of sIL-2R, IL-6 and DPD were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Filled circles, IgM-positive HTLV-I carriers; open circles, IgM-negative HTLV-I carriers.Back to article page
