title: Recognition of IL1-activated chondrocytes in porcine articular cartilage.
abstract: A polyclonal antiserum has been raised against interleukin 1 (IL1)-induced epitopes on the surface of porcine articular chondrocytes. Using this antiserum in immunolocalization studies we have been able to identify individual chondrocytes in situ both in experimentally activated articular cartilage and in pathological tissue from pigs with induced polyarthritis.
