Figure 3

Localization of Sulf-1 and Sulf-2 in normal-appearing and fibrillated cartilage from the same osteoarthritis (OA) donor. Sulf localization was determined with 16 donors (19 to 82 years old). Cartilage from a representative 65-year-old donor had both normal areas (Mankin score: 2) and OA areas (Mankin score: 8). Sulf-positive cells were more frequent in OA areas than in normal-appearing cartilage. Magnifications: ×10 (a, c, e, g, i, k) and ×100 (b, d, f, h, j, l).
