Proteomic Biomarkers Are Linked to QTc Interval in Patients With Chronic Heart Failure
ABSTRACT Objective This study investigates the link between circulating proteins and rate‐corrected QT (QTc) interval in patients with heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) and their association with cardiovascular outcomes. Methods and Results We analyzed 197 HFrEF patients from the prospective Serial Biomarker Measurements and New ...

Differential roles for small leucine-rich proteoglycans in bone formation
This paper reviews our current state of knowledge of the roles the small leucine-rich proteoglycans (SLRPs) play in the formation of connective tissue and mineralised tissue matrices.

Angiotensin II (angII) is known to promote atherosclerosis; however, the mechanisms involved are not fully understood. To determine whether angII stimulates proteoglycan production and LDL retention, LDL receptor-deficient mice were infused with angII (1,

Investigation of Inflammation and Autophagy due to Biglycan-mediated TLR2/4 Signaling in Oral Lichen Planus Tissues [PDF]
Objective: Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic oral mucosal disease of unknown etiology. Cellular immune response, basement membrane, and extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules are also noteworthy in the pathogenesis.

Biglycan-mediated upregulation of MHC class I expression in HER-2/neu-transformed cells
The extracellular matrix protein biglycan (BGN) has oncogenic or tumor suppressive potential depending on the cellular origin. HER-2/neu overexpression in murine fibroblasts and human model systems is inversely correlated with BGN expression.

Biglycan modulates angiogenesis and bone formation during fracture healing
Matrix proteoglycans such as biglycan (Bgn) dominate skeletal tissue and yet its exact role in regulating bone function is still unclear. In this paper we describe the potential role of (Bgn) in the fracture healing process. We hypothesized that Bgn could regulate fracture healing because of previous work showing that it can affect normal bone ...

Introduction: Ischemic conditionings (ICon) were intensively investigated and several protective signaling pathways were identified. Previously, we have shown the role of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury (MIRI ...

Atherosclerosis is the main cause of morbidity and mortality in diabetes, yet the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Retention of atherogenic lipoproteins by vascular proteoglycans is thought to play a key role in the development of atherosclerotic ...
