Examination of synovial fluid and serum following intravenous injections of hyaluronan for the treatment of osteoarthritis in dogs

A randomized, blinded, prospective clinical trial was performed to determine the effects of intravenous (IV) administration of hyaluronan sodium (HA) on serum glycosaminoglycans (GAG) concentrations, synovial fluid (SF) hyaluronan concentrations and viscosity in dogs treated for unilateral rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament...

Fine characterization of mitral valve glycosaminoglycans and their modification with degenerative disease

Background: The levels and fine structure of complex polysaccharides, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), were determined in segments of the posterior mitral valve leaflet (MVL) taken from 15 patients affected by mitral regurgitation and degenerative disease and were compared with segments from 15 multiorgan donors.

Methods: MVL GAGs were analyzed by agarose gel electrophoresis, and by HPLC and fluorophore-assisted carbohydrate electrophoresis to evaluate disaccharide patterns after treatment with chondroitinase ABC.

Results: GAGs from the control group were composed of approximately 37% hyaluronic acid and 63% chondroitin sulfate/dermatan sulfate with a charge density of approximately 0.61...
