Metabolism and Proliferation of Cultured Fibroblasts from Specimens of Human Palmar Fascia and Dupuytren'sContracture. The pathobiochemistry of connective tissue proliferation.

Abstract: Cell Cultures from 11 Dupuytren's contracture and 6 normal palmar fascia specimens were established. The rates of sulphated glycosaminoglycan, collagen and JDNA synthesis by means of incorporation of labelled precursors ([ 35 S]sulphate, [ 3 H]proline, [ 3 ]thymidine) äs well äs the growth characteristics of the cell lines of both healthy and diseased were compared. The incorporation rates of [ 35 S]sulphate and [ 3 H]proline were found to be significantly higher in Dupuytren than in healthy palmar fascia-deri… Show more

“…The authors thus propose that the Dupuytren's fibroblast is "not abnormal" but responds solely to the increased cellularity found in nodules. This is in contrast to Delbruck and Schroder (1983) who reported that while Dupuytren's disease cell cultures, when compared to controls, exhibited no difference in D.N.A. synthesis, there was a significant increase in the total collagen and sulphated glycosoaminoglycans synthesised by the Dupuytren's cells.…”
