Abstract

See full text

Disclosed is a reagent for diagnosing osteoarthritis or predicting the prognosis of osteoarthritis, the reagent containing a peptide having the amino acid sequence (CQRPPR) of SEQ ID NO: 1 as an active ingredient. The present peptide can be used to accurately diagnose osteoarthritis in its early stage based on the molecular imaging technique. The present peptide has a small molecular weight, and thus has advantages of fast clearance from the blood, effective permeation into the tissue, low immunogenicity, and low-production cost. Further, the present reagent can diagnose osteoarthritis in its early stage in which the destruction of cartilage is in a reversible phase and thus can be recovered to a normal state, thereby significantly contributing to effective treatment of osteoarthritis.
