Electron microscopic immunolocalization and radioimmunoassay have been used to determine the variation with depth of the hyaluronate-binding region of proteoglycan in articular cartilage. The cartilage was cut into serial sections from the articular surface to the bony margin, the proteoglycans were extracted from each section and determined by radioimmunoassay using antibodies raised against proteoglycan binding region. Proteoglycans were found to be most abundant in the middle zone and least abundant near the articular surface. Biochemical analysis for hexuronate in the same extracts showed a distribution of proteoglycan in agreement with these and other published results. The binding region antiserum was used for electron microscopic immunolocalization of proteoglycan with ultrathin sections of cartilage embedded in Lowicryl K4M resin. After digestion of the sections with chondroitinase ABC, the proteoglycans were localized using the antiserum and protein A-coated gold particles as immunolabel. The density of labeling was quantified using a Magiscan image analysis system. Throughout the depth of the cartilage matrix labeling was higher in the pericellular regions compared to the intercellular regions, and variation of the amount of immunolabel with depth was found to show a good correlation with the results from radioimmunoassay. Intracellular labeling of proteoglycans was mainly found over the Golgi region and in membrane-bound (secretory) vesicles.
