Research Note: Effect of selection for body weight on the adipogenic conversion of turkey myogenic satellite cells by Syndecan-4 and its covalently attached N-glycosylation chains

open access: yesPoultry Science, 2020
: Adult myoblasts, satellite cells, will proliferate, and differentiate into myotubes in vitro. However, changes in environmental and nutritional conditions will result in the satellite cells differentiating into adipocyte-like cells synthesizing lipids.

The Immunosuppressant FTY720 (Fingolimod) enhances Glycosaminoglycan depletion in articular cartilage

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2011
Background FTY720 (Fingolimod) is a novel immunosuppressive drug investigated in clinical trials for organ transplantation and multiple sclerosis. It acts as a functional sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) receptor antagonist, thereby inhibiting the egress of

The potential for dietary factors to prevent or treat osteoarthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease for which there are no disease-modifying drugs. It is a leading cause of disability in the UK. Increasing age and obesity are both major risk factors for OA and the health and economic burden of this ...

Time‐of‐Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry‐Partial Least Square Regression for Quantifying Interleukin‐8 in Biopolymer Matrices

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
The power of time‐of‐flight secondary ion mass spectrometry‐partial least square regression to detect interleukin‐8, a chemokine involved in inflammation and cancer, down to mass fractions of 1 ppm within biopolymer matrices, including Matrigel and glycosaminoglycan‐based hydrogels, is demonstrated.

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.

Development of affinity-based delivery of NGF from a chondroitin sulfate biomaterial. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Chondroitin sulfate is a major component of the extracellular matrix in both the central and peripheral nervous systems. Chondroitin sulfate is upregulated at injury, thus methods to promote neurite extension through chondroitin sulfate-rich matrices and

A Glycosaminoglycan Extract from Portunus pelagicus Inhibits BACE1, the β Secretase Implicated in Alzheimer’s Disease

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2019
Therapeutic options for Alzheimer’s disease, the most common form of dementia, are currently restricted to palliative treatments. The glycosaminoglycan heparin, widely used as a clinical anticoagulant, has previously been shown to inhibit the ...

Dynamic Compression Improves Chondrogenesis in the Tissue Engineered Model of Cartilage

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hyaline cartilage is a dense avascular tissue with low regenerative potential, present at the ends of the diarthrodial joints and in the cartilage growth plate. Skeletal diseases often result from extracellular changes in this tissue; however, studies of these are hindered by the tissue complexity, the difficulty in obtaining human material ...
