TLDR
Proteoglycan monomer (D1) and aggregate (A1) preparations were isolated from 4 M guanidinium chloride extracts of the Swarm rat chondrosarcoma and contained only small proteoglycan fragments, indicating that extensive enzymatic degradation had occurred.

A murine tumor producing a matrix of basement membrane

TL;DR: A murine tumor previously classified as a poorly differentiated chondrosarcoma is studied, and it is shown at the ultrastructural level that the tumor matrix is a homogeneous, nonfibrillar material, resembling basement membrane.

Culture and growth characteristics of chondrocytes encapsulated in alginate beads.

TL;DR: Preliminary studies with collagen and chitosan matrixes encapsulated in "hollow" beads suggest that cell growth and morphology are profoundly influenced by the composition of the cellular environment.

Isolation and characterization of two sialoproteins present only in bone calcified matrix.

- 15 Dec 1985 - 
TL;DR: Antigenicity of sialoprotein II was not affected by reduction and alkylation, was only partially lost upon trypsin digestion and was completely lost upon fragmentation of the core protein by alkaline-borohydride treatment, indicating that all antigenic sites were located in the protein portion.

Structure and Metabolism of Connective Tissue Proteoglycans

TL;DR: The segregation of the proteoglycans into a separate category is based on a few specific characteristics, including the fact that the d-glucuronic-acid-containing repeating disaccharide of chondroitin, N-acetylchondrosine, has recently been identified as a component of thyroglobulin.

Identification of a monoclonal antibody that specifically recognizes corneal and skeletal keratan sulfate. Monoclonal antibodies to cartilage proteoglycan

TL;DR: The 1/20/5-D-4 monoclonal antibody appears to recognize a common determinant in their polysaccharide moieties, consistent with several biochemical analyses showing the absence of keratan sulfate in proteoglycan synthesised by this tissue.

Structure of the Neutral Trisaccharide of the Chondroitin 4-Sulfate-Protein Linkage Region

TL;DR: The following structure is proposed for the carbohydrate sequence in the chondroitin 4-sulfate-protein linkage region of bovine nasal septum: O-β-d-galactopyranosyl-(1 → 4)-d-xylose, respectively.

Characteristics of the protein-keratan sulfate core and of keratan sulfate prepared from bovine nasal cartilage proteoglycan.

TL;DR: The data suggest that the core molecules contain a protein (or combination of proteins) with a molecular weight of about 200,000 to which different amounts of keratan sulfate are attached, and that polysaccharide molecules with larger molecular weights have higher ratios of glucosamine to galactosamine.

Characterization of chondroitin sulfate isolated from trypsin-chymotrypsin digests of cartilage proteoglycans

TL;DR: The data in sum indicate that peptide fragments which contain from 1 to 8 polysaccharide chains are released when the proteoglycans are digested with trypsin-chymotrypsin digestion, which indicates that some peptides contain large numbers of keratan sulfate chains.

Cathepsins B1 and D. Action on human cartilage proteoglycans

TL;DR: It is concluded that the results are consistent with both cathepsins B1 and D playing a part in the catabolism of cartilage matrix.
