Abstract
Articular tissue was obtained at surgery for a femoral neck fracture in a patient with psoriasis without arthritis. The proteoglycan of the cartilage of the sample was analysed biochemically. Normal cartilage is known to produce two types of proteoglycan monomers (fast- and slow-sedimenting groups), which are distinguishable by density-gradient ultracentrifugation. In the psoriatic cartilage analysed in the present study, it was shown that the former group was absent and only the latter group remained.
