  • Title: Amino acid and glycosaminoglycan composition of epiphyseal cartilage of neonate and osteoporotic lambs.
    Author: Hidiroglou M, Williams CJ, Khan SU, Siddiqui IR.
    Journal: Int J Vitam Nutr Res; 1979; 49(4):359-63. PubMed ID: 549874.
    Abstract:
    The epiphyseal plates of neonate and healthy or osteoporotic 60-day-old lambs were analyzed chemically. Uronic acid was higher in 60-day-old healthy lamb than in neonates but galactosamine was higher in neonates than in 60-day-old healthy lambs. Fourteen of the 17 amino acids identified in the epiphyseal cartilage were higher or had a tendency to be higher in 60-day-old healthy lambs than in neonates. Lower levels of uronic acid were noted in 60-day-old osteoportic lambs than in healthy lambs of the same age.
