  • Title: The extracellular matrix of rat spinal cord: a comparative study on the localization of hyaluronic acid, glial hyaluronate-binding protein, and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan.
    Author: Bignami A, Asher R, Perides G.
    Journal: Exp Neurol; 1992 Jul; 117(1):90-3. PubMed ID: 1377637.
    Abstract:
    The localization of hyaluronic acid (HA), glial hyaluronate-binding protein (GHAP), and chondroitin sulfate (CS) proteoglycan was compared in cryostat sections of rat spinal cord. HA, GHAP, and CS proteoglycan were similarly distributed in white matter where they surrounded myelinated axons. In gray matter, large motoneurons were surrounded by a rim of reaction product in sections stained for HA and CS proteoglycan. GHAP immunoreactivity as well as HA had disappeared in hyaluronidase-digested sections, while CS proteoglycan immunoreactivity was not abolished under these conditions.
