Wingless, Hedgehog and Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans [PDF]
Development, 2004 Several recent papers published in Development challenge some of the previous views published by our group and others that: (1) the Drosophila glypican molecules Dally and Dally-like protein (Dlp) are involved in Wingless (Wg) signaling; and (2) Tout-velu/Ext/Ttv affects Hedgehog (Hh) but not ...

Regulation of stem cell fate by HSPGs: implication in hair follicle cycling
npj Regenerative Medicine, 2022 Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are part of proteoglycan family. They are composed of heparan sulfate (HS)-type glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains covalently linked to a core protein.

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans in glomerular inflammation [PDF]
Kidney 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.

Heparan Sulfate and Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans in Cancer Initiation and Progression [PDF]
Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2018 Heparan sulfate (HS) are complex unbranched carbohydrate chains that are heavily modified by sulfate and exist either conjugated to proteins or as free, unconjugated chains. Proteins with covalently bound Heparan sulfate chains are termed Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans (HSPGs). Both HS and HSPGs bind to various growth factors and act as co-receptors for

Heparanase affects food intake and regulates energy balance in mice. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Mutation of the melanocortin-receptor 4 (MC4R) is the most frequent cause of severe obesity in humans. Binding of agouti-related peptide (AgRP) to MC4R involves the co-receptor syndecan-3, a heparan sulfate proteoglycan.
