## Abstract A study of the organization of proteoglycans in articular cartilage indicates that nonaggregated proteoglycans existed in larger numbers in osteoarthritic than in normal cartilage and that proteoglycan aggregates in arthritic cartilage were smaller than normal. After dissociation from h

Proteases have been postulated to account for the progressive disappearance of matrix proteoglycans in osteoarthritic (OA) cartilage. The digestion of endogenous proteoglycans by neutral proteases in human OA cartilage homogenates has been measured and compared with that of normal age-matched contro
## Abstract The study was designed to determine the contents and distributions of the proteoglycans decorin and biglycan in adult human femoral condylar cartilage and whether these may change in osteoarthritis. New radioimmunoassays were established using peptides representing the aminoβterminal 21
## Abstract An arthritis was induced in rabbits immunized with human serum albumin by injection of antigen into the hind knee joint. Histological changes in the synovial membrane and an increase in polymorphonuclear granulocytes in the synovial fluid indicated an inflammatory response similar to th
## Abstract Growth plate chondrocytes isolated from the proliferative and hypertrophic zones of bovine costochondral junctions were grown in vitro in the presence of various oxygen tensions ranging from 3 to 60%. Using [^35^S] sulfate as an index of glycosaminoglycan synthesis, incorporation was fo
