The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Endothelial specific molecule‐1 (ESM‐1) and guanylate binding protein‐1 (GBP‐1) are proteins that are produced by activated/dysfunctional endothelial cells and are increased and decreased, respectively, during preeclampsia. It remains to be established whether ESM‐1 and GBP‐1 could potentially be included as biomarkers for the ...

Identification of chemically sulfated/desulfated glycosaminoglycans in contaminated heparins and development of a simple assay for the detection of most contaminants in heparin [PDF]
, 2010 Contaminated heparin was linked to at least 149 deaths and hundreds of adverse reactions. Published report indicates that heparin contaminants were a natural impurity, dermatan sulfate, and a contaminant, oversulfated chondroitin sulfate (OSCS). OSCS was

Long-Term Follow-up Posthematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation in a Japanese Patient with Type-VII Mucopolysaccharidosis [PDF]
, 2020 The effectiveness of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) for type-VII mucopolysaccharidosis (MPS VII, Sly syndrome) remains controversial, although recent studies have shown that it has a clinical impact. In 1998, Yamada et al.

Chondroitin sulfates and their binding molecules in the central nervous system [PDF]
, 2017 Chondroitin sulfate (CS) is the most abundant glycosaminoglycan (GAG) in the central nervous system (CNS) matrix. Its sulfation and epimerization patterns give rise to different forms of CS, which enables it to interact specifically and with a ...

Identification and Signature Sequences of Bacterial Δ4,5Hexuronate-2-O-Sulfatases
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2019 Glycosaminoglycan (GAG) sulfatases, which catalyze the hydrolysis of sulfate esters from GAGs, belong to a large and conserved sulfatase family. Bacterial GAG sulfatases are essential in the process of sulfur cycling and are useful for the structural ...

Spatial and temporal changes in the distribution of proteoglycans during avian neural crest development [PDF]
, 1991 In this study, we describe the distribution of various classes of proteoglycans and their potential matrix ligand, hyaluronan, during neural crest development in the trunk region of the chicken embryo.

Evidence for the role of proteoglycans in cation-mediated gene transfer [PDF]
, 1996 We report evidence that gene complexes, consisting of polycations and plasmid DNA enter cells via binding to membrane-associated proteoglycans. Treatment of HeLa cells with sodium chlorate, a potent inhibitor of proteoglycan sulfation, reduced luciferase
