Role of Biomarkers in Diagnosing Disease, Assessing the Severity and Progression of Disease, and Evaluating the Efficacy of Therapies

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 48, Issue 3, May 2025.
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

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2003
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 ...

Analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates by matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry: An update for 2021–2022

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, Volume 44, Issue 3, Page 213-453, May/June 2025.
Abstract The use of matrix‐assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates is a well‐established technique and this review is the 12th update of the original article published in 1999 and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2022.

Fibulin‐4 and latent‐transforming growth factor beta‐binding protein‐4 interactions with syndecan‐2 and syndecan‐3 are required for elastogenesis

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 7, 15 April 2025.
Molecular mechanisms in cell‐associated elastic fiber assembly. Abstract Elastogenesis is a cell surface‐located hierarchical process that requires the core components tropoelastin and fibrillins and several accessory proteins, including fibulin‐4 (FBLN4) and latent TGF‐β binding protein‐4 (LTBP4).

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

open access: yes, 2010
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]

open access: yes, 2012
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]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
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 ...
