ABSTRACT This paper reviews biomarkers in lysosomal disease according to their categories and definitions. There are numerous biomarkers in lysosomal diseases. Some are disease or organ‐specific, but most are not. Organ‐specific biomarkers are especially useful, but most biomarkers help with diagnosis, assessing disease severity, prognosis, and ...

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 ...

Galactosaminoglycan Function and Oligosaccharide Structure Determination
This review will discuss the importance of sequencing long chondroitin sulfate and dermatan sulfate chains specifically derived from decorin. Decorin is a member of the small leucine-rich repeat proteoglycans and ubiquitously expressed primarily in the ...

Sulodexide: implicazioni cliniche ed economiche
Sulodexide is a highly purified glycosaminoglycan approved for leg ulcers treatment. It contains two principal components: heparan sulfate, a fast-moving heparin fraction, (80%) and dermatan sulfate (20%).

Identification of chemically sulfated/desulfated glycosaminoglycans in contaminated heparins and development of a simple assay for the detection of most contaminants in heparin [PDF]
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

Changes in glycosaminoglycans and proteoglycans of normal breast and fibroadenoma during the menstrual cycle [PDF]
Background: Fibroadenoma is the most common breast tumor in young women, and its growth and metabolism may be under hormonal control. in the present paper we described the proteoglycan (PG) composition and synthesis rate of normal breast and fibroadenoma

A Mechanistic Model of Annual Sulfate Concentrations in the United States [PDF]
We develop a mechanistic model to analyze the impact of sulfur dioxide emissions from coal-fired power plants on average sulfate concentrations in the central United States. A multivariate Ornstein-Uhlenbeck (OU) process is used to approximate the dynamics of the underlying space-time chemical transport process, and its distributional properties are ...

Mimicking the Dystrophic Cardiac Extracellular Environment through DystroGel
This research introduces DystroGel, a cutting‐edge biocompatible pathological hydrogel derived from decellularized dystrophic porcine heart tissue, suitable for tissue modeling applications. Rheological and proteomic analyses reveal structural and protein composition modifications, underscoring its unique properties.
