Proliferation was assessed by cell counting, and maturation was ascertained visually as cartilage nodule formation, and histochemically by Alcian Blue staining.
1, BALB/c mice immunized with human cartilage proteoglycan started to develop arthritis after the third injection and the incidence of arthritis reached 100% at day 72 following the third immunization, whereas BALB/c mice immunized with ovalbumin or C57BL/6 mice immunized with proteoglycan were completely resistant to PGIA.
The delayed Gadolinium-Enhanced Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Cartilage (dGEMRIC) method overcomes these problems in that it is nondestructive and can be used to assess quantitatively the spatial distribution of cartilage [GAG] [ 12 13 ] . We and others previously reported on the use of dGEMRIC to monitor GAG regeneration in living cartilage tissue over time in trypsin-depleted bovine cartilage [ 14 ] and in cell-laden polymer matrices (tissue engineered cartilage) [ 15 ] . Those studies clearly demonstrated that dGEMRIC is feasible for long-term [GAG] monitoring, and that its sensitivity is sufficient to permit observation of the spatiotemporal evolution of [GAG].
In young bovine articular cartilage (a tissue that many investigators have used to investigate the impact of physical and biochemical factors on ECM metabolism [ 14 16 17 18 19 20 21 ] ), IL-1 induces a characteristic spatially heterogeneous depletion of GAG.
For example, during salamander limb regeneration, cells from muscle, bone, cartilage, nerve sheath, and connective tissues participate in the dedifferentiation process to form a pool of proliferating progenitor cells known as the regeneration blastema (Figure 1) (Chalkley 1954; Bodemer and Everett 1959; Hay and Fischman 1961; Wallace et al.
