Brain aging alters perineuronal nets and neuroinflammation. 4‐methylumbelliferone reversed these aging‐associated changes. 4‐methylumbelliferone reduced age‐associated cognitive decline. Six months of chronic oral treatment was well tolerated. ABSTRACT Aging‐associated cognitive decline is closely linked to dysregulated glial activity and chronic ...

Aggrecan directs extracellular matrix mediated neuronal plasticity
In the adult brain, the extracellular matrix (ECM) influences recovery after injury,susceptibility to mental disorders, and is in general a strong regulator of neuronal plasticity.

Proteomic signatures of equine dental tooth tissues in ageing and disease
Abstract Background Ageing and dental disease in horses lead to structural and functional deterioration of dental tissues, yet their molecular signatures remain poorly characterised. Understanding how these processes alter the protein composition of enamel, dentin, cementum and pulp is essential for improving equine oral health and identifying ...

The chondroitin sulphate epitope 846 of aggrecan is abundant in foetal cartilage, barely detectable in normal adult cartilage, but reappears in the cartilage and body fluids of arthritic patients. This epitope has been proposed to be a marker of aggrecan

Self-Consistent Field Modeling of Bottle-Brush with Aggrecan-like Side Chain
Bottle-brush polymers with aggrecan-like side chains represent a class of biomimetic macromolecules that replicate key structural and functional features of natural complexes of aggrecans with hyaluronic acid (HA) which are the major components of ...

Histopathologic Analysis of the Morpho‐Functional Zones of the Human Acetabular Labrum
ABSTRACT The structural and functional adaptation of soft tissues to mechanical load controls their ability to withstand injury and influences their capacity for healing. Similar to the knee meniscus, the acetabular labrum exhibits zonal differences in mechanical load distribution, resulting in distinct regions with unique structural and functional ...

Matrix metalloproteinase digestion of aggrecan in human cartilage tumours
Substantial experimental and clinical evidence suggests that the catabolism of extracellular matrix components is a prerequisite for invasive and metastatic behaviour of solid tumours.

ABSTRACT Cartilage is traditionally viewed as a metabolically quiescent tissue that relies primarily on exogenous lipid uptake to meet its energetic and structural demands. However, increasing evidence suggests that chondrocytes exhibit metabolically active behaviors, particularly under aging and pathological conditions.

Calpain is involved in C-terminal truncation of human aggrecan
Mature aggrecan is generally C-terminally truncated at several sites in the CS (chondroitin sulfate) region. Aggrecanases and MMPs (matrix metalloproteinases) have been suggested to be responsible for this digestion. To identify whether calpain, a common

ABSTRACT The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a dynamic and information‐rich network that integrates structural support with biochemical and mechanical signaling. Among its key regulatory components are the Small Leucine‐Rich Proteoglycans (SLRPs), a family of matrix molecules that coordinate extracellular architecture with cell signaling.
