DSE promotes aggressive glioma cell phenotypes by enhancing HB-EGF/ErbB signaling. [PDF]
Remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in the tumor microenvironment promotes glioma progression. Chondroitin sulfate (CS) proteoglycans appear in the ECM and on the cell surface, and can be catalyzed by dermatan sulfate epimerase to form ...

Electron detachment dissociation of dermatan sulfate oligosaccharides [PDF]
The structural characterization of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) oligosaccharides has been a long-standing challenge in the field of mass spectrometry. In this work, we present the application of electron detachment dissociation (EDD) Fourier transform mass spectrometry to the analysis of dermatan sulfate (DS) oligosaccharides up to 10 residues long.

Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of dermatan sulfate in humans [PDF]
Dermatan sulfate (DS), a catalyst of the thrombin-heparin cofactor II interaction, has antithrombotic activity and is devoid of significant hemorrhagic risk in several animal models. We investigated the pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties of DS in humans. DS was injected in single bolus intravenous injections of four increasing doses (0.5, 1,

Glycosaminoglycans in the human cornea: age-related changes [PDF]
AIM: To investigate possible age-related changes in glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in the human cornea. The substances today called GAGs were previously referred to as mucopolysaccharides.

Exogenous addition of a C-xylopyranoside derivative stimulates keratinocyte dermatan sulfate synthesis and promotes migration. [PDF]
As C-Xyloside has been suggested to be an initiator of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) synthesis, and GAGs such as Dermatan sulfate (DS) are potent enhancers of fibroblast growth factor (FGF)--10 action, we investigated if a C-Xylopyranoside derivative, (C-β-D ...

Secondary Storage of Dermatan Sulfate in Sanfilippo Disease [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidoses are a group of genetically inherited disorders that result from the defective activity of lysosomal enzymes involved in glycosaminoglycan catabolism, causing their intralysosomal accumulation. Sanfilippo disease describes a subset of mucopolysaccharidoses resulting from defects in heparan sulfate catabolism.

Metabolomics in psoriatic disease: pilot study reveals metabolite differences in psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. [PDF]
ImportanceWhile "omics" studies have advanced our understanding of inflammatory skin diseases, metabolomics is mostly an unexplored field in dermatology.ObjectiveWe sought to elucidate the pathogenesis of psoriatic diseases by determining the differences

The role of epidermal growth factor-like module containing mucin-like hormone receptor 2 in human cancers. [PDF]
G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) are among the most diverse and ubiquitous proteins in all of biology. The epidermal growth factor-seven span transmembrane (EGF-TM7) subfamily of adhesion GPCRs is a small subset whose members are mainly expressed on ...
