You need to have the leading and ending symbol $.
e.g., ylabel('$J_{1}(\rho)$','interpreter','latex')

Matlab basically understands all the basic symbols that the amsmath package uses, so you can include subscript and superscript, as well as functions like \cos and \frac{}{}. The comment above covers you, but I have some additional examples in this video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5TwChCWGllI
