The heparitin sulfates (heparan sulfates)
Carbohydrate Research, 1973Heparitin sulfate has been isolated from several sources, namely: a commercial lung polysaccharide preparation, beef lung, beef aorta, human amyloid liver, human intestine, and urine of a patient with mucopolysaccharidosis. The polysaccharides isolated were extensively purified, fractionated, and characterized.

The heparan sulfate of rat brain
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 1972Heparan sulfate comprises 14% of the total mucopolysaccharide content of rat brain. Two heparan sulfate fractions (HS-I and HS-II) can be obtained by gradient elution from Dowex I (chloride). HS-I is eluted with i.o. M NaCl and accounts for approximately one third of the total heparan sulfate, while HS-II, accounting for the remaining two thirds of the

Heparan sulfate: a piece of information
The FASEB Journal, 1996The sulfated glycosaminoglycans, heparan sulfate and heparin, are increasingly implicated in cell‐biological processes such as cytokine action, cell adhesion, and regulation of enzymic catalysis. These activities generally depend on interactions of the polysaccharides with proteins, mediated by distinct saccharide sequences, and ...

Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans in Diabetes
Seminars in Thrombosis and Hemostasis, 2021AbstractDiabetes is a complex disorder responsible for the mortality and morbidity of millions of individuals worldwide. Although many approaches have been used to understand and treat diabetes, the role of proteoglycans, in particular heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs), has only recently received attention.

Antithrombin, heparin, and heparan sulfate
Critical Care Medicine, 2002To review the experimental and clinical evidence that antithrombin has multiple mechanisms for both its anticoagulant and anti-inflammatory properties. The interaction between antithrombin and specific polysulfated, acidic oligosaccharide moieties found on heparin and related proteoglycan molecules within the circulation and on endothelial surfaces ...

Biological Activities of Heparan Sulfate
2014Heparan sulfate was isolated from two bivalve mollusks such as Tridacna maxima and Perna viridis. The isolated heparin was quantified in crude as well as purified samples and they were estimated as 2.72 and 2.2g/kg (crude) and 260 and 248 mg/g (purified) in T. maxima and P. viridis, respectively.

Heparan Sulfate in the Tumor Microenvironment
2020The biology of tumor cells strictly depends on their microenvironment architecture and composition, which controls the availability of growth factors and signaling molecules. Thus, the network of glycosaminoglycans, proteoglycans, and proteins known as extracellular matrix (ECM) that surrounds the cells plays a central role in the regulation of tumor ...

Tinkering with heparan sulfate sulfation to steer development
Trends in Cell Biology, 2007Heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycans, at the cell surface and extracellular matrix, facilitate ligand-receptor interactions crucial to many physiological processes. The distinct sulfation patterns of HS sugar chains presented by their protein core are key to HS proteoglycan activity. Tight regulation of several Golgi complex enzyme families is crucial to

The anticoagulant effect of heparan sulfate and dermatan sulfate
Thrombosis Research, 1976Abstract The potency of the various glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) as anticoagulants in the activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) test system has been investigated. Heparin, heparan sulfate (HS) and dermatan sulfate (DS) exhibit anticoagulant effect.

Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans in Amyloidosis
2010Amyloidosis is a generic term for a group of diseases characterized by deposits in different organ systems of insoluble materials composed mainly of distinct fibrillar proteins named amyloid. Besides amyloid, heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG), is commonly found in most amyloid deposits, suggesting that HS/HSPG may be functionally involved in the ...
