Human Proteoglycan Linkage Region Glycosyltransferases are Dimeric and Show Unexpected Specificities
Non‐canonical glycopeptides of the proteoglycan linkage region are accessible by the enzymes B3GalT6 and GlcAT‐1 confirming a recently discovered rescue mode in glycosaminoglycan (GAG) biosynthesis. The crystal structure of B3GalT6 revealed a covalent dimer linked by a disulfide. Abstract We selected the N,O‐glycosylated proteoglycan bikunin as a model

Extracellular matrix alterations in the Peyronie’s disease
Peyronie’s disease is characterized by fibrous plaque formation of the tunica albuginea, causing penile deformity and fertility problems. The aim of the present study was to investigate alterations in the extracellular matrix in Peyronie’s disease.

The extracellular matrix plays a critical role in modulating cell behaviour in the central nervous system influencing neural cell morphology and growth. However, a better understanding of the impact of individual matrix proteins on both neurons and astrocytes is critical for advancing the development of matrix‐based neural repair strategies.

Invariant chain is the core protein of the Ia-associated chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan
The murine Ia-associated chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CSPG) was studied both biochemically and immunochemically to determine the nature of its core protein.

Collagen organisation in the fibrous joint capsules in the digits of the human hand
The function of the finger joints is important for daily life. In this review of the literature, we consider the role of collagen and its organization within the fibrous finger joint capsules of the interphalangeal (IP) joints and investigate the relationships between collagen orientation and joint function. Abstract Normal function of the hand and, in

Optimization of photobiomodulation therapy for spinal cord injury: A review
Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy in the red and near‐infrared range can significantly modulate the secondary injury response and promote the reparative and regenerative potential of neural tissue after spinal cord injury (SCI). At present, due to the nature of delivery methods, the most effective dose and irradiance at the injury site to optimize ...

Abstract Knee osteoarthritis is experienced by hundreds of millions of people worldwide and is a major cause of disability. Although enhancing physical activity levels and the participation in exercise programmes has been proved to improve the debilitating illness of osteoarthritis, many do not engage in recommended levels of physical activity.
