Structure, Metabolism, and Tissue Roles of Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycans
2006Publisher 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, 2006Emerging 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, 1999Proteoglycans (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).

Deglycosylation of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan by hydrogen fluoride in pyridine
Analytical Biochemistry, 1985The original deglycosylation procedure using HF/pyridine has been modified for maximal removal of carbohydrate from chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan, with minimal alteration of the core protein. Gas-liquid chromatography analysis after treatment for various times showed that 95% of xylose and mannose and 70-85% of other sugars were removed within 30 ...

Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycans and Neuronal Network Formation [PDF]
Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans play important roles in the development of the nervous system including neuronal migration, neurite extension, and synapse formation (Maeda 2007). The physiological functions of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans in the developing nervous system can be investigated using various in vitro culture systems as described ...

Functional and Clinical Relevance of Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycan 4
2010The lack of effective conventional therapies for the treatment of advanced stage melanoma has stimulated interest in the development of novel strategies for the management of patients with malignant melanoma. Among them, immunotherapy has attracted much attention because of the potential role played by immunological events in the clinical course of ...

Characteristics of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans of differentiating nonchondrogenic tissues
Canadian Journal of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, 1983The chondroitin 4- and 6-sulfate proteoglycan monomers from two differentiating tissues (brain and muscle of 14-day chick embryos) were compared by indirect means, including use of chondroitinase AC, with the major class of cartilage chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan monomers.

AN ANTIGEN OF CHONDROITIN SULFATE PROTEOGLYCAN; A MARKER FOR CARTILAGE DIFFERENTIATION
Development, Growth and Differentiation, 1980Antisera to the chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan complex (CPG) of cartilage were used to study the specificity of the CPG-associated antigen as a biochemical marker for cartilage differentiation and to study the expression of differentiation by cultured chondrocytes.
