Quantitative analysis of the effects of hyaluronan and aggrecan concentration and hyaluronan size on the elasticity of hyaluronan–aggrecan solutions

Biorheology: The Official Journal of the International Society of Biorheology, 2004
We determined elasticity (G′) and viscosity (G″) of various aggrecan–hyaluronan solutions using a controlled‐stress rheometer with high (10 Hz) to low (0.1 Hz) frequencies. Aggrecan solution (50 mg/ml) alone showed little elasticity at any frequency, but the addition of 3300 kDa hyaluronan at 0.001–0.1 mg/ml markedly increased the elasticity, but not ...

Changes in aggrecan populations in experimental osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis and Cartilage, 1994
Adult articular cartilage contains at least two distinct populations of aggrecan: one is larger and richer in chondroitin sulfate (CS), while the other is smaller with less CS. The smaller form is thought to be derived from the larger. The amount of CS in cartilage decreases with maturation and aging, mainly because of a decrease in the proportion of ...

Hyaluronics and aggrecanics

2002
Hyaluronan (HA) is a high molecular weight (105-107Da) unbranched glycosaminoglycan, composed of repeating disaccharides of D-N-Acetylglucosamine and D-Glucuronic acid. It is a widely distributed component of the extracellular matrix of vertebrate tissues [1].

Sensitivity of monoclonal antibody, 5-D-4, for the detection of aggrecan, aggrecan fragments, and keratan sulfate

Agents and Actions, 1993
Bovine nasal septum aggrecan and selected proteinase-digested products of aggrecan were evaluated in an inhibition ELISA using the anti-keratan sulfate (KS) monoclonal antibody 5-D-4 (5D4). Undegraded aggrecan was recognized with an IC50 of 0.27 microgram/ml.

Analysis of Aggrecan Catabolism by Immunoblotting and Immunohistochemistry

2011
Aggrecan is essential for the normal function of articular cartilage and intervertebral disc, where it provides the ability for the tissues to withstand compressive loading. This property depends on both the high charge density endowed by its numerous chondroitin sulfate and keratan sulfate chains and its ability to form large molecular aggregates via ...
