Abstract
Human peritoneal macrophages were cultured in vitro and labeled with [35S]-sulfate. Both on day 1 and day 6 in culture the cells were found to synthesize exclusively chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan, the main part (70%) being associated with the medium after a 20 hour pulse. The glycosaminoglycan chains were found to be oversulfated both after 1 and 6 days in culture, due to the presence of disulfated disaccharide units.Entities:
