## 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 amino‐terminal 21

Proteoglycans (PGs) purified from 19-year-old male (19M), 53-year-old female (53F), and 15-16-year-old adolescent idiopathic scoliotic (AIS) disc tissues were characterised by their aggregation properties with hyaluronic acid (HA), glycosaminoglycan (GAG), and amino acid composition, electrophoretic
Leucine-rich repeats (LRRs) with 20 -30 amino acids in unit length are present in many proteins from prokaryotes to eukaryotes. The LRRcontaining proteins include a family of nine small proteoglycans, forming three distinct subfamilies: class I contains biglycan/PG-I and decorin/PG-II; class II: lum
