Abstract

Native supramolecular assemblies containing collagen VI microfibrils and associated extracellular matrix proteins were isolated from Swarm rat chondrosarcoma tissue. Their composition and spatial organization were characterized by electron microscopy and immunological detection of molecular constituents. The small leucine-rich repeat (LRR) proteoglycans biglycan and decorin were bound to the N-terminal region of collagen VI. Chondroadherin, another member of the LRR family, was identified both at the N and C termini of collagen VI. Matrilin-1, -3, and -4 were found in complexes with biglycan or decorin at the N terminus. The interactions between collagen VI, biglycan, decorin, and matrilin-1 were studied in detail and revealed a biglycan/matrilin-1 or decorin/matrilin-1 complex acting as a linkage between collagen VI microfibrils and aggrecan or alternatively collagen II. The complexes between matrilin-1 and biglycan or decorin were also reconstituted in vitro. Colocalization of collagen VI and the different ligands in the pericellular matrix of cultured chondrosarcoma cells supported the physiological relevance of the observed interactions in matrix assembly.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
