Nature of the interaction of chondroitin 4-sulphate and chondroitin sulphate-proteoglycan with collagen.
The electrostatic interaction of chondroitin sulphate and the chondroitin sulphate-proteoglycan with collagen was studied by chromatography of the glycosaminoglycan and the proteoglycan on a collagen gel. The observed binding between the macromolecules increased with decreasing pH and ionic strength, and was significant under physiological conditions. A study of the interaction between chondroi...
متن کاملInhibition of hydroxyapatite formation in collagen gels by chondroitin sulphate.
Crystal growth in native collagen gels has been used to determine the role of extracellular matrix macromolecules in biological calcification phenomena. In this system, type I collagen gels containing sodium phosphate and buffered at pH 7.4 are overlayed with a solution containing CaCl2. Crystals form in the collagen gel adjacent to the gel-solution interface. Conditions were determined which p...
متن کاملZonal distribution of chondroitin-4-sulphate/dermatan sulphate and chondroitin-6-sulphate in normal and diseased human synovium.
OBJECTIVES Chondroitin sulphate is the major sulphated glycosaminoglycan present in the extracellular matrix of soft connective tissues and the aim of this study was to investigate the distribution of chondroitin sulphate species in normal and diseased synovium. METHODS Distribution of chondroitin-4-sulphate/dermatan sulphate (Ch4S/DS) and chondroitin-6-sulphate in normal (n = 6), osteoarthri...
متن کاملChondroitin sulphate and keratan sulphate are almost isosteric.
Keratan sulphate and chondroitin sulphate (KS and CS) in the 2-fold helical configurations that are prevalent in solution are of very similar tacticity. The chiral centres, anionic sites and hydrophobic patches are in identical conformations. Only the position of the acetamido group varies from CS to KS, but part of its intramolecular H-bonding potential in CS is retained in KS. The formation o...
متن کاملDIFFERENT DISTRIBUTION OF HEPARAN SULPHATE, CHONDROITIN SULPHATE AND DERMATAN SULPHATE IN VARIOUS FRACTIONS OF THE CELL CULTURE By INGRID
Foetal human lung fibroblasts, grown in monolayer, were allowed to incorporate 35SO42for various periods of time. 35S-labelled macromolecular anionic products were isolated from the medium, a trypsin digest of the cells in monolayer and the cell residue. The various radioactive polysaccharides were identified as heparan sulphate and a galactosaminoglycan population (chondroitin sulphate and der...
