Decorin inhibits glucose-induced lens epithelial cell apoptosis via suppressing p22phox-p38 MAPK signaling pathway

bioRxiv, 2019
Purpose To determine the effect of decorin on oxidative stress and apoptosis of human lens epithelial (HLE) cells under high glucose condition. Methods HLE cell line (HLEB3) was incubated in normal glucose (5.5 mM) or high glucose (60 mM) medium. Decorin

Decorin Suppresses Prostate Tumor Growth through Inhibition of Epidermal Growth Factor and Androgen Receptor Pathways

Neoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2009
Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and androgen receptor (AR) pathways play pivotal roles in prostate cancer progression. Therefore, agents with dual-targeting ability may have important therapeutic potential.

Biological activity differences between TGF-β1 and TGF-β3 correlate with differences in the rigidity and arrangement of their component monomers [PDF]

, 2014
[Image: see text] TGF-β1, -β2, and -β3 are small, secreted signaling proteins. They share 71–80% sequence identity and signal through the same receptors, yet the isoform-specific null mice have distinctive phenotypes and are inviable.

Sustained release of decorin to the surface of the eye enables scarless corneal regeneration

npj Regenerative Medicine, 2018
Disorganization of the transparent collagenous matrix in the cornea, as a consequence of a variety of infections and inflammatory conditions, leads to corneal opacity and sight-loss.

Tissue-selective controlled decorin gene delivery in the rabbit cornea significantly retards corneal angiogenesis in vivo [abstract] [PDF]

, 2010
Recent studies have shown that decorin gene therapy inhibits neovascularization in many non-ocular tissues. We tested the efficacy of decorin gene delivery into stroma with AAV5 to impede vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-induced angiogenesis in ...

Bioactive IGF-1 release from collagen-GAG scaffold to enhance cartilage repair in vitro. [PDF]

, 2015
Tissue engineering is a promising technique for cartilage repair. Toward this goal, a porous collagen-glycosaminoglycan (CG) scaffold was loaded with different concentrations of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and evaluated as a growth factor ...

Endorepellin remodels the endothelial transcriptome toward a pro-autophagic and pro-mitophagic gene signature. [PDF]

, 2018
Regulation of autophagy by proteolytically cleaved fragments of heparan sulfate proteoglycans is a novel and current research focus in tumor biology. Endorepellin is the C-terminal angiostatic fragment of the heparan sulfate proteoglycan perlecan and ...

Gene expression and matrix turnover in overused and damaged tendons [PDF]

, 2005
Chronic, painful conditions affecting tendons, frequently known as tendinopathy, are very common types of sporting injury. The tendon extracellular matrix is substantially altered in tendinopathy, and these changes are thought to precede and underlie the

Human trophoblast stem cell self-renewal and differentiation: Role of decorin

Scientific Reports, 2018
The origin and regulation of stem cells sustaining trophoblast renewal in the human placenta remain unclear. Decorin, a leucine-rich proteoglycan restrains trophoblast proliferation, migration/invasiveness and endovascular differentiation, and local ...

Lentiviral-Encoded shRNA Silencing of Proteoglycan Decorin Enhances Tendon Repair and Regeneration within a Rat Model

Cell Transplantation, 2013
Injured tendons often heal with scar tissue formation, resulting in uniformly smaller collagen fibrils and poor mechanical properties. The small leucine-rich proteoglycan decorin is well known to regulate fusion of collagen fibrils.
