A Biochemical and Immunohistochemical Study of the Proteoglycans of Alveolar Bone

P.M. Bartold

Department of Pathology, University of Adelaide, G.P.O. Box 498, Adelaide, South Australia, Australia

The purpose of this investigation was to study the proteoglycans in alveolar bone of three animal species. Alveolar bone was obtained from humans, pigs, and rabbits. Portions were fixed, sectioned, and stained with monoclonal antibodies against keratan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate. In other samples, biochemical analyses were performed. After removal of the organic matrix by 4 mol/L guanidinium HCl extraction in the presence of proteinase inhibitors, proteoglycans in the mineralized matrix were extracted with 4 mol/L guanidinium HCI/0.5 mol/L EDTAlproteinase inhibitors, and characterized on the basis of their glycosaminoglycan content (cellulose acetate membrane electrophoresis), charge (DEAE-Sephacel and hydroxylapatite chromatography), size (Sepharose CL-6B chromatography and agarose/ polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis), and amino acid content. The results indicated that keratan sulfate could be detected immunohistochemically and biochemically in rabbit bone only. The predominant glycosaminoglycan in pig and human alveolar bone was chondroitin sulfate, although some hyaluronate, dermatan sulfate, and heparan sulfate were also detected. The proteoglycans were found to be slightly smaller than gingival proteoglycans, but similar to those in cementum, dentin, and other bones. In addition to intact proteoglycans, some free glycosaminoglycan chains were also extracted from the mineralized matrix. Amino acid analyses showed some subtle differences between alveolar bone proteoglycan and those of the soft tissues of the periodontium.
