A Direct Spectrophotometric Microassay for Sulfated Glycosaminoglycans in Cartilage Cultures

Richard W. Farndale, C A Sayers, A. John Barrett · 1 Jan 1982

A rapid spectrophotometric procedure is described for the estimation of sulfated glycosaminoglycans in cartilage cultures. Papain digestion of tissue or culture medium provides glycosaminoglycans in solution for assay; an aliquot of the digest is mixed with the dye 1,9-dimethylmethylene blue. The assay is based on the metachromatic shift in absorption maximum which occurs when the…

Osteoblast–osteoclast interactions

Xiao Chen, Zhongqiu Wang, Na Duan et al. · 8 Feb 2017

Bone homeostasis depends on the resorption of bones by osteoclasts and formation of bones by the osteoblasts. Imbalance of this tightly coupled process can cause diseases such as osteoporosis. Thus, the mechanisms that regulate communication between osteoclasts and osteoblasts are critical to bone cell biology. It has been shown that osteoblasts and osteoclasts can communicate…

The Multicomposite Structure of Tendon

J. Kastelic, Andrzej Gałęski, E. Baer · 1 Jan 1978

A revised morphological model for the crimp structure of tendon is presented. The 300-500 mu diameter tendons of the mature rat tail are comprised of from one to more than ten substructures, called fascicles, of 80-320 mu diameter. Fascicles each possess a "crimp structure" demonstrable in the polarizing microscope and neighboring fascicles within a tendon…

The Nature and Significance of Osteopontin

William T. Butler · 1 Jan 1989

Osteopontin is an acidic glycoprotein of about 41,500 daltons that has been isolated from rat, human and bovine bone. It is rich in aspartic acid, glutamic acid and serine and contains about 30 monosaccharides, including 10 sialic acids. Several types of data suggest that the carbohydrate is present as 1 N-glycoside and 5-6 O-glycosides while…

Nutrition of the Intervertebral Disc: Solute Transport and Metabolism

Søren Holm, Alice Maroudas, J Urban et al. · 1 Jan 1981

The metabolism of the canine nucleus pulposus was investigated at different oxygen tensions. It was found that even at high oxygen tensions the metabolism is mainly anaerobic, only approximately 1.5% of the glucose being converted to carbon dioxide. The concentration dependence of oxygen consumption is limited to very low oxygen tensions. Values of oxygen consumption…

Connective Tissue Research template — frequently asked questions

How do I write a paper in the Connective Tissue Research format?
In DocuGuru you write your manuscript in a normal editor — no LaTeX setup required — and select the Connective Tissue Research template. When you export, DocuGuru compiles the paper into the official Taylor & Francis format and hands you a submission-ready PDF along with the editable LaTeX source.
What reference style does Connective Tissue Research use?
Connective Tissue Research uses Author–year (Chicago, T&F) references, shown as author–year markers such as (Smith, 2023) in the text. DocuGuru formats every in-text citation and the reference list in this exact style automatically. A reference appears like this: Smith, Ada, Ben Jones, and Cara Lee. 2023. "A Representative Article Title." Connective Tissue Research 12 (3): 45–58.
Do I need to know LaTeX to submit to Connective Tissue Research?
No. DocuGuru generates the interact LaTeX class and compiles the PDF for you in the background, so you get a Taylor & Francis-ready Connective Tissue Research document without writing any LaTeX. If you do want it, the LaTeX source is included in the export.
Can I import an existing draft into the Connective Tissue Research template?
Yes. Paste or upload your current manuscript — Word, LaTeX, Markdown, or plain text — and DocuGuru reflows it into the Connective Tissue Research format with correct headings, figures, tables, and author–year citations.
Who publishes Connective Tissue Research?
Connective Tissue Research is a multidisciplinary journal published by Taylor & Francis. DocuGuru's Connective Tissue Research template matches Taylor & Francis's official submission format.
Can I export a submission-ready Connective Tissue Research PDF?
Yes — DocuGuru produces a PDF built with the official Connective Tissue Research template (the interact class) that is ready to submit to Taylor & Francis, together with the matching LaTeX source files.
How much does the Connective Tissue Research template cost?
You can start writing in the Connective Tissue Research template for free. Exporting the final submission-ready Connective Tissue Research PDF and LaTeX source is part of DocuGuru's paid plans — see the app for current pricing.
