Possible effects of EXT2 on mesenchymal differentiation - lessons from the zebrafish [PDF]
Mutations in the EXT genes disrupt polymerisation of heparan sulphates (HS) and lead to the development of osteochondroma, an isolated/sporadic- or a multifocal/hereditary cartilaginous bone tumour. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a very powerful animal model which has shown to present the same cartilage phenotype that is commonly seen in mice model and ...

Cytoskeletal Abnormalities in Chondrocytes with EXT1 and EXT2 Mutations [PDF]
Abstract The EXT genes are a group of putative tumor suppressor genes that previously have been shown to participate in the development of hereditary multiple exostoses (HME), HME-associated and isolated chondrosarcomas. Two HME disease genes, EXT1 and EXT2, have been identified and are expressed ubiquitously.

Heparanase and Syndecan-4 Are Involved in Low Molecular Weight Fucoidan-Induced Angiogenesis
Induction of angiogenesis is a potential treatment for chronic ischemia. Low molecular weight fucoidan (LMWF), the sulfated polysaccharide from brown seaweeds, has been shown to promote revascularization in a rat limb ischemia, increasing angiogenesis ...

Carriers of loss-of-function mutations in EXT display impaired pancreatic beta-cell reserve due to smaller pancreas volume. [PDF]
Exotosin (EXT) proteins are involved in the chain elongation step of heparan sulfate (HS) biosynthesis, which is intricately involved in organ development.

Gedanken experiments for the determination of two-dimensional linear second gradient elasticity coefficients [PDF]
In the present paper, a two-dimensional solid consisting of a linear elastic isotropic material, for which the deformation energy depends on the second gradient of the displacement, is considered.

New Insights into Potocki-Shaffer Syndrome: Report of Two Novel Cases and Literature Review
Potocki-Shaffer syndrome (PSS) is a rare non-recurrent contiguous gene deletion syndrome involving chromosome 11p11.2. Current literature implies a minimal region with haploinsufficiency of three genes, ALX4 (parietal foramina), EXT2 (multiple exostoses),

Objective To find novel potential gene mutations other than EXT1 and EXT2 mutations, to expand the mutational spectrum of EXT and to explore the correlation between clinical outcome and genotype in patients with hereditary multiple exostoses (HME ...
