Lytic and mechanical stability of clots composed of fibrin and blood vessel wall components. [PDF]

, 2013
Background Proteases expressed in atherosclerotic plaque lesions generate collagen fragments, release glycosaminoglycans (chondroitin sulfate [CS] and dermatan sulfate [DS]) and expose extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins (e.g.

Dermal Glycosaminoglycans in Psoriasis

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1970
Six dermal specimens from active plaques of psoriasis were subjected to biochemical analysis of glycosaminoglycans. The technique used consisted of digestion of the dermal samples with papain and trypsin, uronic acid determination by the carbazol method and identification of hyaluronic acid (HA) and dermatan sulfate (DS) by cellulose acetate ...

Advances in glycosaminoglycan detection

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2020
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are negatively charged long linear (highly sulfated) polysaccharides consisting of repeating disaccharide units that are expressed on the surfaces of all nucleated cells. The expression of GAGs is required for embryogenesis, regulation of cell growth and proliferation, maintenance of tissue hydration, and interactions of the ...

4D Bioprinted Self‐Folding Scaffolds Enhance Cartilage Formation in the Engineering of Trachea

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 10, Issue 6, March 18, 2025.
A bilayer self‐folding scaffold, triggerable by humidity, is fabricated via 4D bioprinting for trachea engineering. An analytical model is derived to predict its radius of curvature, enabling its scalability. Cartilage progenitor cells seeded on the scaffold perceive scaffold final curvature and react to it, by enhancing the upregulation of pro ...

Glycosaminoglycans as Biomarkers for Mucopolysaccharidoses and Other Disorders

Diagnostics, 2021
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are present in proteoglycans, which play critical physiological roles in various tissues. They are known to be elevated in mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS), a group of rare inherited metabolic diseases in which the lysosomal enzyme ...

Decorin as a multivalent therapeutic agent against cancer. [PDF]

, 2016
Decorin is a prototypical small leucine-rich proteoglycan that epitomizes the multifunctional nature of this critical gene family. Soluble decorin engages multiple receptor tyrosine kinases within the target-rich environment of the tumor stroma and tumor
