Variation in proteoglycan metabolism by articular chondrocytes in different joint regions is determined by post-natal mechanical loading [PDF]
SummaryIn this study we investigated the hypothesis that cartilage from defined regions of ovine stifle joints, which were subjected to differing mechanical stresses, contained phenotypically distinct chondrocyte populations.

Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA or Morquio A syndrome is characterized by the lack of N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate-sulfatase and the accumulation of keratan sulfate and chondroitin-6-sulfate in the lysosomes.

Iron oxide-coupled CRISPR-nCas9-based genome editing assessment in mucopolysaccharidosis IVA mice
Mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS) IVA is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by mutations in the GALNS gene that leads to the lysosomal accumulation of keratan sulfate (KS) and chondroitin 6-sulfate, causing skeletal dysplasia and cardiopulmonary complications.

Effects of a synthetic bioactive peptide on neurite growth and nerve growth factor release in chondroitin sulfate hydrogels. [PDF]
Previous work has revealed robust dorsal root ganglia neurite growth in hydrogels of chondroitin sulfate. In the current work, it was determined whether addition of a synthetic bioactive peptide could augment neurite growth in these matrices via enhanced

Bisphosphonate Treatment in a Patient Affected by MPS IVA with Osteoporotic Phenotype
Morquio A syndrome (Mucopolysaccharidosis type IVA) (MPS IVA) is a rare inherited metabolic disorder characterized by the defective degradation of keratan sulfate and chondroitin-6-sulfate.
