Decorin

open access: yesThe American Journal of Pathology, 2012
Decorin, an archetypal member of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan gene family, has a broad binding repertoire that encompasses matrix structural components, such as collagens, and growth factors, particularly those that belong to the transforming growth factor-β ligand superfamily.

Bone marrow plasma level of decorin may be associated with improved treatment outcomes in a subset of multiple myeloma patients

open access: yesJournal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2022
Background/purpose: Decorin is a small leucine-rich proteoglycan rich in extracellular matrix with potential antitumor activity. However, the role of decorin in hematological malignancies remains unclear, especially in the case of multiple myeloma (MM ...

Determination of Dental Lesions in Dairy Cattle and Immunochemical Detection of the Biomarker Decorin in Gingival Crevicular Fluid of Dairy Cattle [PDF]

open access: yesVet Med Sci
This study identified dental and gingival lesions in dairy cattle, revealing the significance of routine periodontal assessment for animal welfare. Decorin levels in GCF samples were compared between healthy and diseased cattle, indicating its potential as a non‐invasive biomarker for dental inflammation.

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 ...

Anti-fibrotic effect of decorin in peritoneal dialysis and PD-associated peritonitis

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2020
Background: Progressive peritoneal fibrosis is a common complication in patients on long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD). PD-associated peritonitis is a major exacerbating factor.

Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts Promote Vascular Invasion of Hepatocellular Carcinoma via Downregulating Decorin-integrin β1 Signaling

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignancy worldwide, and the high ratio of recurrence and metastasis remains the main cause of its poor prognosis. Vascular invasion of HCC includes microvascular invasion (MVI) and portal vein tumor thrombosis

Decorin Inhibits Dermal Mesenchymal Cell Migration and Induces Scar Formation

open access: yesPlastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2022
Background:. Variations in skin healing capacities are observed during different murine embryonic developmental stages. Through embryonic day 16 (E16), embryos are able to regenerate dermal architecture following flank skin wounding; however, after E17 ...

Selective inactivity of TGF‐β/decorin complexes [PDF]

open access: bronzeFEBS Letters, 1994
Previous studies had shown that binding of TGF‐β to the small proteoglycan decorin results in its inactivation. Indeed, in osteosarcoma cells the addition of decorin prevented the TGF‐β1‐mediated up‐regulation of biglycan synthesis. However, the down‐regulation of proteoglycan‐100 remained unaltered.

MicroRNA 181b regulates decorin production by dermal fibroblasts and may be a potential therapy for hypertrophic scar. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Hypertrophic scarring is a frequent fibroproliferative complication following deep dermal burns leading to impaired function and lifelong disfigurement. Decorin reduces fibrosis and induces regeneration in many tissues, and is significantly downregulated
