Glucosamine effects on macrophage (A) and smooth muscle cells (SMC) (B) PG. THP-1 human monocyte-macrophages or confluent monolayers of rat aortic SMC were labeled with 35SO4 in medium or medium containing 2.5 mM glucosamine or medium containing 30 mM glucose (for SMC) for 16 hours. Total PG and CS/DS PG and HSPG were determined as described in Figure 1B. (data not mentioned in the Result)
