This disclosure relates to methods and kits for diagnosing osteoarthritis and for determining the progression of osteoarthritis in a subject.

Disclosed are methods for diagnosing a myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in a subject. In some embodiments, the method involves assaying a sample from the subject to detect inflammasome activation, wherein an increase in inflammasome activation in the sample compared to a control is an indication of MDS in the subject. The disclosed methods can further involve treating the subject for MDS if an increase in inflammasome activation is detected.
