Isolation, N-glycosylations and Function of a Hyaluronidase-Like Enzyme from the Venom of the Spider Cupiennius salei. [PDF]
Hyaluronidases are important venom components acting as spreading factor of toxic compounds. In several studies this spreading effect was tested on vertebrate tissue. However, data about the spreading activity on invertebrates, the main prey organisms of

Chondroitin sulfate (CS)/dermatan sulfate (DS) is a kind of sulfated polyanionic, linear polysaccharide belonging to glycosaminoglycan. CS/DS sulfatases, which specifically hydrolyze sulfate groups from CS/DS oligo-/polysaccharides, are potential tools ...

R17 Drives Heparan Sulfate Clearance via Endolysosomal Trafficking
R17 is a viral protein that binds heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans and traffics them to the lysosome, leading to their degradation in a manner that does not require the presence of the cation‐independent mannose‐6‐phosphatre receptor. In BxPC3 pancreatic cancer cells, this loss in heparan sulfate results in the reduction of cell migration.

Collagens and proteoglycans of the corneal extracellular matrix
The cornea is a curved and transparent structure that provides the initial focusing of a light image into the eye. It consists of a central stroma that constitutes 90% of the corneal depth, covered anteriorly with epithelium and posteriorly with ...

ABSTRACT The Ehlers–Danlos syndromes (EDS) are a group of heritable connective tissue disorders, characterized by varying degrees of joint hypermobility, skin hyperextensibility and extracellular matrix defects. Spondylodysplastic type of EDS (spEDS) is a rare type of this group that can be caused by pathogenic variants in the B3GALT6 gene, coding for ...

Immunocytochemical investigation on the distribution of small chondroitin sulfate-dermatan sulfate proteoglycan in the human. [PDF]
Polyclonal antibodies against the core protein of the small chondroitin sulfate-dermatan sulfate proteoglycan from human skin fibroblast secretions were used, after affinity-purification, as a probe to study localization of crossreactive material in ...

Endothelial glycocalyx degradation during sepsis: Causes and consequences
The glycocalyx is a ubiquitous structure found on endothelial cells that extends into the vascular lumen. It is enriched in proteoglycans, which are proteins attached to the glycosaminoglycans heparan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate ...
