Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans in Infection
To cause infections, microbial pathogens elaborate a multitude of factors that interact with host components. Using these host–pathogen interactions to their advantage, pathogens attach, invade, disseminate, and evade host defense mechanisms to promote their survival in the hostile host environment.

Status quo and future developments in the diagnosis and treatment of hereditary angioedema
Summary Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is a rare hereditary disease characterized by edema, which can be life‐threatening in case of swelling in the larynx. The most common form of HAE is caused by a mutation of the SERPING1 gene and is characterized by a deficiency (type I) or loss of function (type II) of the C1 inhibitor (C1‐INH), leading to excessive ...

Osteochondrosis in horses: An overview of genetic and other factors
Abstract Osteochondrosis (OC) is a frequent manifestation of developmental orthopaedic disease, and its severe clinical presentation is known as OC dissecans (OCD). OC is defined as a disruption of the endochondral ossification process in the epiphyseal cartilage, and this disease has been reported in different mammalian species, including humans, dogs,

Glycosaminoglycans and Glycosaminoglycan Mimetics in Cancer and Inflammation [PDF]
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are a class of biomolecules expressed virtually on all mammalian cells and usually covalently attached to proteins, forming proteoglycans.

N‐terminal helix formation and dimer–monomer transition of FGF10 in specific recognition of FGFR2b
FGF10 specifically recognizes FGFR2b with a conformational change of the N‐terminal part. The N‐terminal part of FGF10 and two loops of FGFR2b constituting the interaction interface are the most varied regions in FGF and FGFR family members. FGF10 shows a concentration‐dependent dimerization.

CLEC18A is a previously poorly characterized C‐type lectin. We mapped the expression of CLEC18A to the proximal tubule of the kidney and found CLEC18A to interact with sulfated glycosaminoglycans on proteoglycans. Furthermore, we found that CLEC18A plays an important role in hindering the progression of clear cell renal cell carcinomas in humans and in
