Biosynthesis of chondroitin sulfate: Microsomal proteoglycans

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1978
Abstract A microsomal preparation from chick embryo epiphyseal cartilage was incubated with UDP-[ 14 C]glucuronic acid and UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine to form [ 14 C] chondroitin-labeled proteoglycan. Two [ 14 C]proteoglycan populations were obtained which differed in size, [ 14 C]glycosaminoglycan content, and susceptibility to alkali.

Neurocan: a brain chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2001
Neurocan is a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan of the lectican family and a component of the extracellular matrix of the central nervous system. It is mainly expressed during modeling and remodeling stages of this tissue. Neurocan can bind to various structural extracellular matrix components, such as hyaluronan, heparin, tenascin-C and tenascin-R, and

Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycans in Tumor Progression

2006
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the implication of stromal and cell surface chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) to the different aspects of tumor growth and metastasis. In a developing tumor, several CSPGs are overexpressed and deposited into extracellular matrix (ECM) during the stromal reaction. The accumulated PGs participate in the

Inhibition of Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycans by APRIL

2020
Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) are major constituents of the extracellular matrix and well-established obstacles to regeneration in the central nervous system. As such, they are promising targets for therapy in neurological pathologies where repair is needed, such as spinal cord injuries, and multiple sclerosis.

Hydraulic conductivity of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan solutions

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1989
The hydraulic conductivity of solutions of Swarm rat chondrosarcoma proteoglycan subunit and of chondroitin 4- and 6-sulfate up to concentrations of 80 mg ml-1 have been measured under physiological conditions using sedimentation velocity and membrane ultrafiltration techniques.

Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycans in the Brain

2006
Publisher Summary Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) play important roles in the morphogenesis and maintenance of various tissues, including the central nervous system (CNS), through the interactions of their core proteins and/or chondroitin sulfate (CS) chains with cell adhesion molecules, extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules, and growth ...

Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan and heparan sulfate proteoglycan production by cultured pigeon peritoneal macrophages

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 1992
Abstract Proteoglycan production was examined in cultures of thioglycollate-elicited peritoneal macrophages obtained from White Carneau and Show Racer pigeons. Following a 24-h incubation in the presence of [35S]sulfate and [3H]serine, total production and distribution of 35S-labeled proteoglycan into media (60–65%), pericellular (21–27%)

Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans in neural development and regeneration

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2005
Proteoglycans are of two main types, chondroitin sulfate (CSPGs) and heparin sulfate (HSPGs). The CSPGs act mainly as barrier-forming molecules, whereas the HSPGs stabilise the interactions of receptors and ligands. During development CSPGs pattern cell migration, axon growth pathways and axon terminations.
