Specifications
Target Information
Chondroitin sulfate (CS) is a sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) composed of a chain of alternating sugars: N-acetylgalactosamine and glucuronic acid. It is usually found attached to proteins as part of a proteoglycan. Chondroitin sulfate is an important structural component of cartilage, providing much of its resistance to compression. Along with glucosamine, chondroitin sulfate is commonly used as a dietary supplement for the treatment of osteoarthritis. In a previous research, treatment with glucosamine and CS consistently downregulated mRNA expression for inflammatory mediators and matrix degrading enzymes in bovine cartilage explants.
