## Abstract Proteoglycan aggregates isolated from normal bovine knee cartilage were larger than those from osteoarthritic cartilage of the same joints and appeared relatively more resistant to digestion with leech hyaluronidase. Incubation of proteoglycan subunits from the arthritic cartilage with
## Abstract Previous work has shown that alterations in proteoglycan aggregates are among the first changes detected with aging, disuse, and degeneration of articular cartilage, yet the cause or causes of these alterations remain unknown. To determine if differences in link protein concentration ca
The aim of this study was to analyze the mechanisms by which neutral metalloproteoglycanases (NMPE) degrade proteoglycans (PGs) in the cartilage of an experimental model of osteoarthritis (OA). We demonstrated that chondrocytes in osteoarthritic cartilage synthesize PGs with the same functional char
