See full text

Methods are disclosed for assessing risk of developing osteoarthritis. Said methods comprise determining the cellular localizations, blood or synovial fluid concentrations, sumoylation states and post-translational modifications of pituitary homeobox transcription factor 1 (pitx-1) repressor proteins, identifying mutations in genes which encode said proteins and identifying any mutations or post-translational modifications causing the nuclear accumulation or retention of said proteins. Said proteins include prohibitin (PHB-I), prohibitone (PHB-2) and B cell lymphoma-6 transcriptional repressor interacting co-repressor (BCoR).
