Galactosaminoglycans from normal myometrium and leiomyoma
In many tumors, the amount of chondroitin sulfate in the extracellular matrix has been shown to be elevated when compared to the corresponding normal tissue. Nevertheless, the degree of chondroitin sulfate increase varies widely.

Hunter syndrome revisited [PDF]
Hunter syndrome is the type II of mucopolysaccharidose. With impaired glycosaminoglycan catabolism, heparan and dermatan sulfate accumulate in lysosomes. Multiple organ dysfunction is a consequence of this effect.

Isolation of Keratan Sulfate Disaccharide-branched Chondroitin Sulfate E from Mactra chinensis
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) including chondroitin sulfate (CS), dermatan sulfate (DS), heparin (HP), heparan sulfate (HS) and keratan sulfate (KS) are linear, sulfated repeating disaccharide sequences containing hexosamine and uronic acid (or galactose in ...

Arterial pathology in canine mucopolysaccharidosis-I and response to therapy. [PDF]
Mucopolysaccharidosis-I (MPS-I) is an inherited deficiency of α-L-iduronidase (IdU) that causes lysosomal accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) in a variety of parenchymal cell types and connective tissues.

The Dermatan Sulfate-Protein Linkage Region
A study was made to identify the components of the region of linkage between polysaccharide and protein of dermatan sulfate from umbilical cord. The sulfated mucopolysaccharides were obtained after digestion of the tissue with pepsin and trypsin, and a dermatan sulfate-polypeptide preparation was isolated and purified.

Sulfated glycosaminoglycans in human vocal fold lamina propria
Introduction: The distribution, concentration and function of glycosaminoglycans in the various vocal fold tissues are still unclear. Objective: To evaluate the distribution and concentration of sulfated glycosaminoglycans in different layers of the ...

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 ...

The endothelial glycocalyx: composition, functions, and visualization [PDF]
This review aims at presenting state-of-the-art knowledge on the composition and functions of the endothelial glycocalyx. The endothelial glycocalyx is a network of membrane-bound proteoglycans and glycoproteins, covering the endothelium luminally.
