Production of cartilage-typic proteoglycans in cultures of chondrocytes from elastic cartilage 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Chondrocytes from rabbit ear cartilage were isolated and cultured as monolayers in Ham's F-12 medium. The proteoglycans synthesized by short-term cultures formed a high proportion of aggregates and contained chrondroitin-4- and -6-sulfate in a 2:1 proportion. Dermatan sulfate was not present. The average molecular weight of the chondroitin sulfate was about 20,000. Keratan sulfate with an average molecular weight of about 6000 could be isolated from the proteoglycan monomers. Rabbit ear chondrocytes in culture thus produced proteoglycans comparable to those isolated from hyaline cartilage. Culture for longer periods and plating at lower density caused a decrease in the proportion of aggregated proteoglycans. Primary cultures continued to synthesize aggregated proteoglycans for at least 2 weeks, while subdivision of the cultures caused a shift toward the production of small-sized “ubiquitous proteoglycans.” The synthesis of proteoglycan aggregates could, however, be partly restored by transfer of the monolayer cells to a suspension culture. 相似文献

Osteoarthritis is complex in genetics, pathogenesis, monitoring and treatment. Current treatment of osteoarthritis does not influence progression. Much could be gained by more effective 'low-tech-low-cost' treatment. However, many patients have rapidly progressive disease, multiple joint involvement, and severe disease. We need to clarify the genetics of osteoarthritis, identify those at risk for progression and severe disease, and identify molecular processes critical for joint survival and failure. Will saving the cartilage improve patient pain and function? Effective outcome measures are needed to accelerate testing of new treatments. Further improvement is needed in joint implant technology to decrease costs, wear and loosening. 相似文献

Rib cartilage from growing guinea pigs and epiphyseal cartilage from Beagle puppie were separated into three fractions, representing non-mineralized, low mineralized, and high mineralized, tissue, by centrifuging finely ground material in acetone/bromoform density gradients. Following extraction under dissociative conditions, the proteoglycans were fractionated by density gradient ultracentrifugation under associative and dissociative conditions.With the onset of mineralization, the cartilage lost approximately half its content of proteoglycans. The proteoglycans remaining in the calcified cartilage differed in composition and in size from those of nonmineralized tissue. With the increased mineral content of the tissues the ratios of protein to polysaccharide, of chondroitin sulfate to keratan sulfate, and of 4-sulfated to 6-sulfated chondroitin sulfate increased in the proteoglycan fraction. Furthermore, gel chromatograms indicated decreased proportions of very high molecular weight proteoglycans, in mineralized tissue. 相似文献

Fetal guinea-pig epiphyseal chondrocytes were cultured in monolayers and as aggregates in the presence of antimicrotubular agents. Colchicine and vinblastine caused a dissociation of the Golgi complex, in addition to the disappearance of microtubules. Synthesis and secretion of proteoglycans and collagen were studied using radioactive precursors. Colchicine inhibited the synthesis of proteoglycans. The drug also inhibited secretion with an intracellular accumulation of these molecules. The proteoglycans secreted by the colchicine-treated cells had a smaller molecular size and contained a smaller proportion of aggregated molecules than proteoglycans in control cultures. However, there was no difference in the average size of the chondroitin sulfate side chains of the proteoglycan molecules. Nor was there any increase in the breakdown of proteoglycans in colchicine-treated cultures. Vinblastine was also found to inhibit synthesis and secretion of proteoglycans. Deuterium oxide also inhibited the synthesis of these molecules but stimulated their secretion into the medium. Colchicine caused an inhibition of both synthesis and secretion of collagen. It is suggested that the quantitative and qualitative effects of colchicine could be the result of disturbances in the Golgi complex, possibly in combination with a retarded translocation of secretory vacuoles. However, as the colchicine-treated chondrocytes were still able to continue a large part of their matrix biosynthesis with only moderate changes in the structure of the secreted molecules, it is probable that alternative pathways for the secretion of matrix molecules exist and/or the Golgi complex is able to retain a major part of its function despite the structural alterations. 相似文献

Analysis by high-performance liquid chromatography of radioactively labeled carbohydrate components of proteoglycans 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
L S Lohmander 《Analytical biochemistry》1986,154(1):75-84
Methods were developed for the separation of radioactively labeled carbohydrate components of proteoglycans by isocratic ion-moderated partition HPLC. Neutral sugars were separated after hydrolysis in trifluoroacetic acid with baseline separation between glucose, xylose, galactose, fucose, and mannose. N-Acetylneuraminic acid, N-acetylated hexosamines, glucose, galactose, and xylitol were likewise well separated from each other under isocratic elution conditions. Glucuronic acid, iduronic acid, and their lactones were separated after hydrolysis in formic acid and sulfuric acid. Glucosamine, galactosamine, galactosaminitol, and glucosaminitol were separated by HPLC on a cation exchanger with neutral buffer after hydrolysis in hydrochloric acid. The separation techniques also proved useful in fractionation of exoglycosidase digests of O- and N-linked oligosaccharides. Separations of aldoses, hexosamines, and uronic acids were adapted to sensitive photometric detection. 相似文献

The structure, biosynthesis, and metabolism of proteoglycans in the HL-60 human promyelocytes were studied by metabolic labeling in culture with [35S]sulfate, [3H]glucosamine, [3H]serine, and [3H]leucine. These cells synthesize a single predominant species of intracellular proteoglycan with an approximate molecular weight of 100,000. The cells contain about 1 microgram of proteoglycan/million cells. The proteoglycan is turned over within the cells in two apparent pools with half-lives of about 0.6 and 27 h, respectively. The fast pool represents secretion into medium in an apparently intact form, whereas the slow pool represents intracellular degradation to free chondroitin sulfate chains and smaller fragments. The proteoglycan contains a protein core with an apparent Mr on gel filtration and sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of about 20,000-30,000. To the core protein are attached an average of six or seven chondroitin sulfate chains, each with an Mr of about 10,000. The chondroitin sulfate chains contain approximately 85% 4-sulfated and approximately 15% nonsulfated disaccharides. The chondroitin sulfate attachment region of the core protein is essentially resistant to trypsin and elastase, whereas the remainder of the protein core is readily degraded by proteases. The size of the chondroitin sulfate attachment region peptide generated by trypsin was estimated to be approximately 5 kDa. Based on the molecular size, distribution of amino acids, protease susceptibility, and the extent of O-glycosylation, we propose that the intracellular proteoglycan characterized in this study is the translation product of a proteoglycan gene reported to be present in these cells (Stevens, R.L., Avraham, S., Gartner, M.C., Bruns, G.A., Austen, K.E., and Weis, J.H. (1988) J. Biol. Chem. 263, 7287-7291). 相似文献

The turnover in vivo of proteoglycans of guinea pig costal cartilage was investigated using Na235SO4 as precursor. Proteoglycans were extracted with guanidine · HCl, at both low and high ionic strength, and purified and fractionated by ultracentrifugation in CsCl gradients under associative and dissociative conditions. The results suggest that the sulfate is incorporated into macromolecules of at least two major metabolic pools with half-lives of about 3 days and about 60–70 days, respectively. Molecules with a fast turnover were enriched in the low ionic strength extracts and in fractions containing small, nonaggregated proteoglycans. No substantial evidence was found for a precursor-product relationship between different fractions. 相似文献
