Age-Specific Excretion of Calcium, Oxalate, Citrate, and Glycosaminoglycans and Their Ratios in Healthy Children and Children with Urolithiasis

Biomolecules, 2021
We analyzed children with urolithiasis with age- and gender-matched healthy children. Calcium (mmol/mmol creatinine) and the calcium/citrate ratio (mol/mmol) are the only variables that differentiate children before puberty from healthy children (ROC ...

High sensitivity analysis of nanogram quantities of glycosaminoglycans using ToF-SIMS

Communications Chemistry, 2021
Glycosaminoglycans are an important class of carbohydrates, but pose substantial analytical challenges. Here ToF-SIMS combined with multivariate analysis distinguishes six classes of glycosaminoglycans, including distinguishing heparin samples from ...

Roles of Proteoglycans and Glycosaminoglycans in Cancer Development and Progression

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
The extracellular matrix (ECM) spatiotemporally controls cell fate; however, dysregulation of ECM remodeling can lead to tumorigenesis and cancer development by providing favorable conditions for tumor cells.

Metabolism of multiple glycosaminoglycans by Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron is orchestrated by a versatile core genetic locus

Nature Communications, 2020
The human gut microbiota (HGM), which is critical to human health, utilises complex glycans as its major carbon source. Glycosaminoglycans represent an important, high priority, nutrient source for the HGM.

Decorating the Anammox House: Sialic Acids and Sulfated Glycosaminoglycans in the Extracellular Polymeric Substances of Anammox Granular Sludge

Environmental Science and Technology, 2020
Anammox (anaerobic ammonium oxidation) bacteria are important for the nitrogen cycle in both natural environments and wastewater treatment plants. These bacteria have a strong tendency to grow in aggregates like biofilms and granular sludge.

Diagnosis of Mucopolysaccharidoses and Mucolipidosis by Assaying Multiplex Enzymes and Glycosaminoglycans

Diagnostics, 2021
Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) and mucolipidosis (ML II/III) are a group of lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) that occur due to a dysfunction of the lysosomal hydrolases responsible for the catabolism of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs).

Evaluation of urinary glycosaminoglycans and matrix metalloproteinase-7 in lung cancer patients

Egyptian Journal of Chest Disease and Tuberculosis, 2013
Lung cancer accounts for one-third of all cancer-related deaths worldwide. Glycosaminoglycans and matrix metalloproteinase-7 (MMP-7) have been found to be involved in cancer.
