Decorin promotes decidual M1-like macrophage polarization via mitochondrial dysfunction resulting in recurrent pregnancy loss

open access: yesTheranostics, 2022
Rationale: Recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) is a distressing disorder that seriously affects the physical and psychological health of women. RPL is also a sentinel risk marker for future obstetric complications and warrants in-depth investigation. Abnormal

Lack of decorin expression by human bladder cancer cells offers new tools in the therapy of urothelial malignancies. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Decorin, a multifunctional small leucine-rich extracellular matrix proteoglycan, has been shown to possess potent antitumour activity. However, there is some uncertainty whether different cancer cells express decorin in addition to non-malignant stromal ...

Oncosuppressive roles of decorin through regulation of multiple receptors and diverse signaling pathways.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology - Cell Physiology, 2022
Decorin is a stromal-derived prototype member of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan gene family. In addition to its functions as a regulator of collagen fibrillogenesis and TGFb activity, soluble decorin acts as a pan-receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK ...

Decorin knockdown is beneficial for aged tendons in the presence of biglycan expression

open access: yesMatrix Biology Plus, 2022
Decorin and biglycan are two major small leucine-rich proteoglycans (SLRPs) present in the tendon extracellular matrix that facilitate collagen fibrillogenesis, tissue turnover, and cell signal transduction.

Decorin Regulates Collagen Fibrillogenesis During Corneal Wound Healing in Mouse in vivo

open access: yesExperimental Eye Research, 2022
A characteristic rigid spatial arrangement of collagen fibrils in the stroma is critical for corneal transparency. This unique organization of collagen fibrils in corneal stroma can be impacted by the presence and interactions of proteoglycans and ...

The dermatan sulfate proteoglycan decorin modulates α2β1 integrin and the vimentin intermediate filament system during collagen synthesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Decorin, a small leucine-rich proteoglycan harboring a dermatan sulfate chain at its N-terminus, is involved in regulating matrix organization and cell signaling. Loss of the dermatan sulfate of decorin leads to an Ehlers-Danlos syndrome characterized by

Decorin-mediated suppression of tumorigenesis, invasion, and metastasis in inflammatory breast cancer

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Inflammatory breast cancer (IBC) is a clinically distinct and highly aggressive form of breast cancer with rapid onset and a strong propensity to metastasize.

Focus on Molecules: Decorin [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Eye Research, 2011
Decorin (NM_133507) is a ubiquitous small extracellular proteoglycan. It is a composite molecule ~100kda in size with a protein core and attached GAGs. It was cloned from a human embryonic fibroblast line and named PG40 for its protein core, ~40Kda.

Decorin Expression in Human Vulva Carcinoma: Oncosuppressive Effect of Decorin cDNA Transduction on Carcinoma Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The extracellular matrix proteoglycan decorin is well-known for its oncosuppressive activity. Here, decorin expression was examined in human vulva carcinoma tissue samples and in primary and commercial cell lines representing this malignant disease ...

Decorin Is a Zn2+ Metalloprotein [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1999
Decorin is ubiquitously distributed in the extracellular matrix of mammals and a member of the proteoglycan family characterized by a core protein dominated by leucine-rich repeat motifs. We show here that decorin extracted from bovine tissues under denaturing conditions or produced in recombinant "native" form by cultured mammalian cells has a high ...
