35SO42(-)- and [3H]leucine-labelled proteoglycans were isolated from the medium and cell layer of human skin fibroblast cultures. Measures were taken to avoid proteolytic modifications during isolation by adding guanidinium chloride and proteolysis inhibitors immediately after harvest. The proteoglycans were purified and fractionated by density-gradient centrifugation, followed by gel and ion-exchange chromatography. Our procedure permitted the isolation of two major proteoglycan fractions from the medium, one large, containing glucuronic acid-rich dermatan sulphate chains, and one small, containing iduronic acid-rich ones. The protein core of the latter proteoglycan had an apparent molecular weight of 47000 as determined by polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis, whereas the protein core of the former was considerably larger. The major dermatan sulphate proteoglycan of the cell layer was similar to the large proteoglycan of the medium. Only small amounts of the iduronic acid-rich dermatan sulphate proteoglycan could be isolated from the cell layer. Instead most of the iduronic acid-rich glycans appeared as free chains. The heparan sulphate proteoglycans found in the cell culture were largely confined to the cell layer. This proteoglycan was of rather low buoyant density and seemed to contain a high proportion of protein. The major part of the heparan sulphate proteoglycan from the medium had a higher buoyant density and contained a smaller amount of protein.
