Strain-dependent porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) entry and replication in T-lymphoblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Porcine circovirus type 2 (PCV2) is the etiological agent of PCV2-associated diseases (PCVAD). PCV2 targets lymphoblasts, and pigs suffering from PCVAD display lymphocyte depletion in lymphoid tissues. PCV2 infection of lymphoblasts has not been studied.

A Robust Heparin‐Mimicking Polyglycerol‐Based Coating for Blood‐Contacting Devices with Long‐Term Hemocompatibility and Preliminary Anti‐Inflammatory Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A robust heparin‐mimicking coating based on sulfated polyglycerol is constructed via layer‐by‐layer assembly on bloodcontacting surfaces. The coating exhibits long‐term anticoagulant and anti‐inflammatory properties by resisting protein adsorption, preventing platelet activation, and suppressing immune responses, offering a promising strategy for ...

Control of cell division in the adult brain by heparan sulfates in fractones and vascular basement membranes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Regulation of cell division in adult tissues and organs requires the coordination of growth factors at the surface of potentially-dividing cells in specific anatomic loci named germinal niches.

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans in glomerular inflammation [PDF]

open access: yesKidney International, 2004
Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are glycoproteins consisting of a core protein to which linear heparan sulfate side chains are covalently attached. These heparan sulfate side chains can be modified at different positions by several enzymes, which include N-deacetylases, N- and O-sulfotransferases, and an epimerase.

A Heparin‐Functionalized Scaffold with HB‐EGF Immobilization for Tissue Engineering

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, a heparin‐functionalized scaffold is designed for bio‐mimicking growth factors reservoir function of extracellular matrix. Due to the presence of heparin‐binding domain, heparin‐binding epidermal growth factor‐like growth factor (HB‐EGF) is effectively and spatially captured by heparin‐functionalized scaffold.

Iron‐Catalyzed Highly Stereospecific Glycosylation with Glycal Epoxides

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We report an iron‐catalyzed, highly stereospecific glycosylation method with glycal epoxides, which is effective for a broad range of substrates, including previously challenging, sterically hindered secondary acceptors and glucuronic ester epoxide donors.

Cell-to-cell transmission of p53 aggregates: a novel player in oncology?

open access: yesMolecular & Cellular Oncology, 2021
The mutants of the tumor suppressor protein p53 form protein aggregates. It has been proposed that these aggregates propagate like prions, albeit the detailed mechanism of the propagation is unclear.

Heparan sulfate proteoglycan is an important attachment factor for cell entry of Akabane and Schmallenberg viruses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Akabane (AKAV) and Schmallenberg (SBV) viruses are Orthobunyavirus transmitted by arthropod vectors with a broad cellular tropism in vitro as well as in vivo Both AKAV and SBV cause arthrogryposis-hydranencephaly syndrome in ruminants.

Chemoselective Characterization of New Extracellular Matrix Deposition in Bioengineered Tumor Tissues

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Understanding the bi‐directional crosstalk between cells and their surrounding extracellular matrix (ECM) is critical for tissue engineering. This study presents a chemoselective strategy for proteomic profiling of newly deposited ECM from resident cells.

Characterization of two heparan sulphate-binding sites in the mycobacterial adhesin Hlp

open access: yesBMC Microbiology, 2008
Background The histone-like Hlp protein is emerging as a key component in mycobacterial pathogenesis, being involved in the initial events of host colonization by interacting with laminin and glycosaminoglycans (GAGs).
