## 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
## 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 This article describes the effects of bound forms of insulinβlike growth factors (IGFs) on proteoglycan metabolism by bovine articular cartilage in explant culture. When these growth factors were added to articular cartilage explants complexed with their native serum binding proteins (B
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
