Proteoglycan form of macrophage colony-stimulating factor binds low density lipoprotein [PDF]
We recently isolated a proteoglycan form of macrophage colony-stimulating factor (PG-M-CSF) that carries a chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycan chain. Here, we examined the interaction of PG-M-CSF with low density lipoprotein (LDL).

Expanding the Chondroitin Sulfate Glycoproteome — But How Far?
Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) are found at cell surfaces and in connective tissues, where they interact with a multitude of proteins involved in various pathophysiological processes.

PTPσ Is a Receptor for Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycan, an Inhibitor of Neural Regeneration
Toward Neuronal Regeneration Neurons in the central nervous system that are severed or crushed do not regenerate well. Part of the problem derives from the glial scars left behind after such damage.

Neuroendocrine tumors are found throughout the body and are important as they give rise to distinct clinical syndromes. Glycosaminoglycans, in proteoglycan form or as free chains, play vital roles in every step of tumor progression.

Avian neural crest cell migration is diversely regulated by the two major hyaluronan-binding proteoglycans PG-M/versican and aggrecan [PDF]
It has been proposed that hyaluronan-binding proteoglycans play an important role as guiding cues during neural crest (NC) cell migration, but their precise function has not been elucidated.

ADAMTS -1 and -4 are up-regulated following transient middle cerebral artery occlusion in the rat and their expression is modulated by TNF in cultured astrocytes [PDF]
ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) enzymes are a recently described group of metalloproteinases. The substrates degraded by ADAMTS-1, -4 and -5 suggests that they play a role in turnover of extracellular matrix in the

Contributions of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans to neurodevelopment, injury, and cancer [PDF]
Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) are a diverse family of extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules that make significant contributions to the patterning and routing of migrating neural cells and extending axons. Three distinct modes of migration mediation result from the relative abundance and positioning of expressed CSPGs, the profile of CSPG ...

Glycans and glycosaminoglycans in neurobiology: key regulators of neuronal cell function and fate [PDF]
The aim of the present study was to examine the roles of l-fucose and the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) keratan sulfate (KS) and chondroitin sulfate/dermatan sulfate (CS/DS) with selected functional molecules in neural tissues.

Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycans Are Associated with the Lesions of Alzheimer's Disease
Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPG) are extracellular matrix proteins inhibitory to neurite outgrowth in vitro and correlated with decreased neurite outgrowth after CNS injury. Previously, heparan sulfate proteoglycan and dermatan sulfate proteoglycan have been shown to be associated with senile plaques (SPs) and neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs) but
