Probing nanomechanics of aggrecan and the aggrecan-rich pericellular matrix of chondrocytes in cartilage

, 2005
The mechanical properties of articular cartilage are associated with the extracellular matrix network of type II collagen and the proteoglycan, aggrecan, which in combination provide the tensile, shear, and compressive stiffness of the tissue. While the collagen network mainly provides resistance to tensile and shear deformation, aggrecan enmeshed ...
