Abstract excerpt
Bovine tracheal submucosal gland serous cells in culture synthesize and secrete proteoglycans and not mucin glycoconjugates. We are interested in the characterization and role of these proteoglycans in airway secretions. The major [35S]methionine-labeled proteoglycan present is identified as the small chondroitin/dermatan sulfate proteoglycan decorin (PG II. PG40). Consistent with its identity as decorin this...
