4‐Methylumbelliferone Restores Age‐Related Changes in Perineuronal Nets, Memory, and Neuroinflammation

open access: yesGlia, Volume 74, Issue 12, December 2026.
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

open access: yes, 2018
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

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Journal, Volume 58, Issue 6, Page 1552-1569, November 2026.
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 : its relationship to aggrecan synthesis and its partial characterization

open access: yes, 1997
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

open access: yesBiomimetics
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

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 7, Page 787-800, October 2026.
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

open access: yes, 1998
Substantial experimental and clinical evidence suggests that the catabolism of extracellular matrix components is a prerequisite for invasive and metastatic behaviour of solid tumours.

Stable Isotope Labeling to Track De Novo Fatty Acid Synthesis in Mouse Cartilage‐Enriched Joint Tissue In Vivo: A Practical Workflow

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 44, Issue 10, October 2026.
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

open access: yes, 2010
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

Small Proteoglycans, Big Impact: Decorin, Biglycan, and Asporin in Musculoskeletal Tissue Health and Disease

open access: yesProteoglycan Research, Volume 4, Issue 4, October 2026.
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.
