Biosensors for the Detection of Interaction between Legionella pneumophila Collagen-Like Protein and Glycosaminoglycans

open access: yesSensors, 2018
The adhesin Legionella collagen-like (Lcl) protein can bind to extracellular matrix components and mediate the binding of Legionella pneumophila to host cells. In this study, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and surface plasmon resonance (SPR)

The Sea as a Rich Source of Structurally Unique Glycosaminoglycans and Mimetics

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2017
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are sulfated glycans capable of regulating various biological and medical functions. Heparin, heparan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, keratan sulfate and hyaluronan are the principal classes of GAGs found in ...

Modular automated solid phase synthesis of dermatan sulfate oligosaccharides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dermatan sulfates are glycosaminoglycan polysaccharides that serve a multitude of biological roles as part of the extracellular matrix. Orthogonally protected D-galactosamine and L-iduronic acid building blocks and a photo- cleavable linker are ...

Isolation of Keratan Sulfate Disaccharide-branched Chondroitin Sulfate E from Mactra chinensis

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
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 ...

Galactosaminoglycans from normal myometrium and leiomyoma

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2001
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.

Pharmacodynamics and pharmacokinetics of dermatan sulfate in humans [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 1989
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,

Hunter syndrome revisited [PDF]

open access: yesRomanian Medical Journal, 2020
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.

Preparation and purification of Flavobacterium heparinum chondroitinases AC and B by hydrophobic interaction chromatography

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 1999
Flavobacterium heparinum is a soil bacterium that produces several mucopolysaccharidases such as heparinase, heparitinases I and II, and chondroitinases AC, B, C and ABC. The purpose of the present study was to optimize the preparation of F.

Left-sided valvular heart disease and retinopathy in a 38-year-old woman with attenuated mucopolysaccharidosis: a case report

open access: yesTherapeutic Advances in Rare Disease, 2023
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of inherited lysosomal storage disorders caused by deficient levels and/or activity of glycosaminoglycan (GAG)-degradative enzymes.

Electron detachment dissociation of dermatan sulfate oligosaccharides [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society for Mass Spectrometry, 2008
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.
