Summary Antiinflammatory drugs, as well as glucosamine salts are widely used for the treatment of osteoarthrosis. Antiinflammatory drugs relieve pain, but they inhibit cartilage proteoglycan (PP) synthesis. A standard method which uses “in vitro” cultures of articular cartilage capsules from rat femoral heads removed from the acetabular cavity and radioactive precursors as well as analytical determinations has been chosen for these studies. Glucosamine HCl enhances tritiated proline as well as… CONTINUE READING
