Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans as mediators of axon growth and pathfinding

Cell and Tissue Research, 1997
This review focuses primarily on studies concerning the potential roles of two nervous-tissue-specific chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans, viz., neurocan and phosphacan, in cell interactions and neurite growth in the developing central nervous system.

Expression of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans in the chiasm of mouse embryos

The Journal of Comparative Neurology, 2000
Chondroitin sulfate (CS) proteoglycans have been implicated as molecules that are involved in axon guidance in the developing neural pathways. The spatiotemporal expression of CS was investigated in the developing retinofugal pathway in mouse embryos by using the CS-56 antibody.

Interaction of Proteoglycans and Chondroitin Sulfates with Calcium or Phosphate Ions

Canadian Journal of Biochemistry, 1971
Equilibrium dialysis was used to study the distribution of calcium or phosphate ions at equilibrium in dialysis cells containing proteoglycan or chondroitin sulfate in one compartment. A higher concentration of calcium or lower concentration of phosphate was found in the cell compartment containing the polymer than in the compartment separated from it

Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan of human leukocytes

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1969
Abstract 1. 1. A chondroitin sulfate proteogylcan was isolated from leukocyte granules and partly characterized. It had a low protein content and a relatively low molecular size. 2. 2. The incorporation of [ 35 S]sulfate, [ 14 C]glucosamine and [ 3 H]serine into chondroitin sulfate was inhibited by puromycin, indicating that the elongation of

Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans in demyelinated lesions impair remyelination

Annals of Neurology, 2012
AbstractObjective:Failure of remyelination is a critical impediment to recovery in multiple sclerosis (MS). Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) have been reported to accumulate in MS lesions, and we thus examined the functional roles of CSPGs on oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs), oligodendrocytes, and remyelination.Methods:We evaluated the ...

Structure, Metabolism, and Tissue Roles of Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycans

2006
Publisher Summary Proteoglycans (PGs) are a complex group of glycoproteins that are characterized by the presence of one or more sulfated glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains and various oligosaccharides that are covalently attached to a core protein. The majority of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) belongs to the group of large aggregating PGs ...

From barriers to bridges: chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans in neuropathology

Trends in Molecular Medicine, 2006
Emerging studies have revealed new roles for the neural extracellular matrix in neuropathologies. The structure of this matrix is unusual and uniquely enriched in chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans, particularly those of the lectican family. Historically, lecticans have attracted considerable interest in the normal and injured brain for their prominent ...

Identification and Immunolocalization of Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycans in Tooth Cementum

Connective Tissue Research, 1999
Proteoglycans (PGs) display a great diversity in their core proteins as well as carbohydrate structures and are thought to be involved in many biological functions. Recently we have identified and immunolocalized two keratan sulfate PGs, fibromodulin and lumican, in bovine tooth cementum (Cheng et al., Connect. Tissue Res. 34: 87-96, 1996).

Inhibition of anchorage-independent growth of human melanoma cells by a monoclonal antibody to a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan.

Journal of the National Cancer Institute, 1983
Anchorage-independent growth of tumor cells constitutes a phenotype highly associated with malignant transformation and appears to be important in the ultimate event of tumor metastasis, i.e., secondary tumor colonization.
