Compressive nanomechanics of opposing aggrecan macromolecules

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanics, 2006
In this study, we have measured the nanoscale compressive interactions between opposing aggrecan macromolecules in near-physiological conditions, in order to elucidate the molecular origins of tissue-level cartilage biomechanical behavior. Aggrecan molecules from fetal bovine epiphyseal cartilage were chemically end-grafted to planar substrates ...

The Different Roles of Aggrecan Interaction Domains [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Histochemistry and Cytochemistry, 2012
The aggregating proteoglycans of the lectican family are important components of extracellular matrices. Aggrecan is the most well studied of these and is central to cartilage biomechanical properties and skeletal development. Key to its biological function is the fixed charge of the many glycosaminoglycan chains, that provide the basis for the ...

Degradation of cartilage aggrecan by collagenase-3 (MMP-13) [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1996
Degradation of the large cartilage proteoglycan aggrecan in arthritis involves an unidentified enzyme aggrecanase, and at least one of the matrix metalloproteinases. Proteinase-sensitive cleavage sites in the aggrecan interglobular domain (IGD) have been
