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.

Determination of Dental Lesions in Dairy Cattle and Immunochemical Detection of the Biomarker Decorin in Gingival Crevicular Fluid of Dairy Cattle [PDF]
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]
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
Background: Progressive peritoneal fibrosis is a common complication in patients on long-term peritoneal dialysis (PD). PD-associated peritonitis is a major exacerbating factor.

Decorin Inhibits Dermal Mesenchymal Cell Migration and Induces Scar Formation
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]
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]
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
