Binding of von Willebrand factor to the small proteoglycan decorin [PDF]

, 2004
The small proteoglycan decorin plays an important role in the organisation of the extracellular matrix by binding to several components, including collagen and fibronectin.

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.

Decorin ameliorates peritoneal fibrosis in peritoneal dialysis related peritonitis [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Peritonitis is a leading cause of peritoneal membrane failure in patients on peritoneal dialysis (PD). Decorin is a dermatan sulfate proteoglycan that possesses anti-fibrotic properties.

Potential use of decorin in preventing cerebral vasospasm through the inhibition of transforming growth factor-beta activity: Insights from an experimental rabbit subarachnoid hemorrhage model

World Neurosurgery: X
Objective: The development of vasospasm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) is a major cause of death and disability. It leads to structural changes such as smooth muscle and myofibroblast proliferation, necrosis, intimal hyperplasia, and vascular ...

A central role for decorin during vertebrate convergent extension [PDF]

, 2009
Decorin, an archetypal member of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan gene family, regulates collagen fibrillogenesis and cell growth. To further explore its biological function, we examined the role of Decorin during zebrafish development.

Differential roles for small leucine-rich proteoglycans in bone formation

European Cells & Materials, 2003
This paper reviews our current state of knowledge of the roles the small leucine-rich proteoglycans (SLRPs) play in the formation of connective tissue and mineralised tissue matrices.

Role of decorin in control of endothelial cell behaviour [PDF]

Angiogenesis is a complex process regulated by co-ordination of extracellular matrix (ECM) and growth factor signalling (via integrins and growth factor receptors respectively).
