Frontiers in Chemistry, 2021 Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are important constituents of human glycome. They are negatively charged unbranched polysaccharides that are usually covalently attached to proteins, forming glycan-protein conjugates, called proteoglycans. Glycosaminoglycans play critical roles in numerous biological processes throughout individual development and are also ...

Glycosaminoglycans, protein aggregation and neurodegeneration.
, 2011 International audienceA number of neurodegenerative diseases, as Parkinson, prion, and Alzheimer's diseases, has been directly associated with altered conformations of certain peptides or proteins that assemble to form highly organized aggregates, also ...

Glycosaminoglycans in biomedicine [PDF]
WIREs Nanomedicine and Nanobiotechnology, 2013 AbstractGlycosaminoglycans (GAGs) compose one of four classes of mammalian biopolymers, and are arguably the most complex. The research areas of glycobiology, glycopolymers, and the use of GAGs within tissue engineering and regenerative medicine have grown exponentially during the past decade.

Production and HPLC-Based Disaccharide Analysis of Xyloside-Primed Glycosaminoglycans
, 2021 Although glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are known to be involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes, knowledge about their expression by cells or tissues, the GAGome, is limited.

Glycosaminoglycans and infection [PDF]
Frontiers in Bioscience, 2016 Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are complex linear polysaccharides expressed in intracellular compartments, at the cell surface, and in the extracellular environment where they interact with various molecules to regulate many cellular processes implicated in health and disease. Subversion of GAGs is a pathogenic strategy shared by a wide variety of microbial

Glycosaminoglycans and the peritoneaum [PDF]
Nephrology, 2002 SUMMARY: The introduction of peritoneal dialysis (PD) over two decades ago has allowed us to manipulate the peritoneal membrane to perform as a continuous dialysing organ. to maximize the efficacy of solute transport and waste removal, conventional PD fluids require unphysiological concentrations of glucose to provide the osmotic drive, lactate to ...
