Abstract
Peptides synthesized to match N-telopeptide components of type III collagen degradation products in body fluids, selected from among DVKSGVAVGG (SEQ ID NO 33), YDVKSGVAVGG (SEQ ID NO 34), SYDVKSGVAVGG (SEQ ID NO 35), DSYDVKSGVAVGG (SEQ ID NO 36), JYDSYDVKSGVAVGG (SEQ ID NO 37), and KSGVAVGG (SEQ ID NO 45) are claimed. The peptides are useful as immunogens and antigens in collagen resorption assays.
