The results show that the growrth of chondrocytes is inhibited and the morphology of the cells altered. The collagen synthesizing capability of the damaged cell changes somewhat. A noteworthy change of the type of collagen synthesized by the abnormal cells was observed by CMC-chromatography and amino acid analysis. The results indicated that the abnonml cells tend to synthesize type I instead of type II collagen, which is synthesized and secreted by the intact chondrocyte.展开更多

The results from amino acid analysis of the damaged collagen are characterized by a decrease in hydroxyproline and proline contents, and an increase in glutamic acid content. The change arc dependent on·OH and FA concentration. It is postulated that the FA or other toxic xenobiotics induce the generation of free radicals, which play the role of the trigger in KBD development.展开更多
