Heparan Sulfate Identification and Characterisation: Method I. Heparan Sulfate Identification by NMR Analysis

open access: yesBio-Protocol, 2017
Heparin and heparan sulfate (HS) may be purified from complex biological matrices and are often isolated in sub-milligram quantities but not unequivocally identified by spectroscopic means.

Alteration in oral and non‐oral tissues in ligature‐induced periodontitis mice with the Alzheimer's disease risk factor APOE4

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract The APOE4 gene, particularly the ε4 allele, is linked to susceptibility to Alzheimer's disease, and periodontitis can cause pathological changes in multiple organs, but combined effects of these conditions and the impact of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)‐α regulation on the combined effects remain unclear.

Role of Heparan Sulfate 2-O-Sulfotransferase in Prostate Cancer Cell Proliferation, Invasion, and Growth Factor Signaling

open access: yesProstate Cancer, 2011
Heparan-sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are required for maximal growth factor signaling in prostate cancer progression. The degree of sulfate modification on the covalently attached heparan sulfate (HS) chains is one of the determining factors of growth ...

A Fluorogenic Heparan Sulfate Disaccharide for the Measurement of Heparanase Activity

open access: yes, 2020
The endo-β-glucuronidase heparanase mediates mammalian heparan sulfate catabolism, and is of considerable medical interest due to its prominent role in cancer aggression and metastasis.

Extracellular matrix and proteolysis: mechanisms driving irreversible changes and shaping cell behavior

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Irreversible ECM proteolysis by remodeling enzymes shapes development, homeostasis, and disease. ECM‐degrading proteases display cell specificity and are governed by shared mechanisms, exhibiting functional redundancy in generating matrikines, growth factors, and cytokines.

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular

Fibroblast EXT1-levels influence tumor cell proliferation and migration in composite spheroids.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BackgroundStromal fibroblasts are important determinants of tumor cell behavior. They act to condition the tumor microenvironment, influence tumor growth, support tumor angiogenesis and affect tumor metastasis. Heparan sulfate proteoglycans, present both

Coxsackievirus A16 utilizes cell surface heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans as its attachment receptor

open access: yesEmerging Microbes and Infections, 2017
Coxsackievirus A16 (CVA16) is one of the major pathogens responsible for hand, foot and mouth disease, which affects more than two million children in the Asian-Pacific region annually.
