Glycosaminoglycan content in tissues and body fluids of rats treated with atherogenic diet.
An increase of total glycosaminoglycan content in aortic wall and liver as well as changes in the concentration of glycosaminoglycan fractions in aorta, skin, liver, and blood serum were found in white rats fed with atherogenic diet. Urinary excretion of glycosaminoglycans was increased in experimental animals.
