A heparan sulfate proteoglycan in developing avian axonal tracts

open access: yes, 1993
A neuronal heparan sulfate proteoglycan was identified by a panel of four monoclonal antibodies. The antibodies were generated from mice immunized with embryonic chick retina basal lamina (clones 3A12, 3A3, and 9E10) and embryonic chick optic tract ...

Single‐Nucleus Atlas of Spinal Sarcopenia Patients Reveals Disruption of Quiescent and Regenerative Satellite Cell Niches in Fatty‐Infiltrated Muscle

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Mechanisms of Fatty Infiltration and Muscle Degeneration. Clinical metadata identified intramuscular fat accumulation as an independent driver of muscle mass decline. Single‐nucleus RNA sequencing of spinal sarcopenia muscle revealed adipogenic reprogramming of fibro‐adipogenic progenitors, satellite‐cell niche disruption, and elevated levels of the ...

Characterization of PmHS2 glycosyltransferases for the controlled synthesis of heparosan : a precursor of heparin and heparan sulfate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Heparin (Hep), a highly sulfated and complex glycosaminoglycan polysaccharides, is worldwide used as an anticoagulant compound to prevent blood clotting during surgery.

Metabolism and turnover of cell surface-associated heparan sulfate proteoglycan and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan in normal and cholesterol-enriched macrophages.

open access: yes, 1991
Analysis of sulfur-35-labeled proteoglycans indicated that cholesterol-enriched pigeon peritoneal macrophages synthesized 42% more 35S-labeled proteoglycan when compared with control macrophages during a 24-hour incubation.

Accumulation of Ym1 and formation of intracellular crystalline bodies in alveolar macrophages lacking heparanase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Heparanase is a heparan sulfate (HS) degrading endoglucuronidase that has been implicated in cell migration and inflammatory conditions. Here we used mice deficient of heparanase (Hpse−/−) to study the impact of heparanase on airway leukocytes.

CRISPR and Gene Augmentation Rescue Trabecular Meshwork Dysfunction in iPSC Models of Lowe Syndrome

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
By modeling Lowe syndrome using patient‐derived iPSCs, this study establishes a human disease model that faithfully recapitulates OCRL deficiency‐associated ciliary and cytoskeletal defects. The model enables evaluation of both mutation‐agnostic DNA augmentation and CRISPR‐mediated mutation correction strategies, both of which restore OCRL function and

Membrane-Associated Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycan Is a Receptor for Adeno-Associated Virus Type 2 Virions [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The human parvovirus adeno-associated virus (AAV) infects a broad range of cell types, including human, nonhuman primate, canine, murine, and avian. Although little is known about the initial events of virus infection, AAV is currently being developed as

Molecular Modelling of the Complex Polysaccharide Heparan Sulphate [PDF]

open access: yes
Heparan Sulphate plays an important role in many life processes and so an understanding of its role as a universal co-receptor is of great importance. Traditionally oligosaccharides derived from the related molecule heparin have been at the forefront of

Decoding Biomolecular Phase Separation: From Physiological Roles to Pathological Mechanisms and Therapeutic Biomaterials Design

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This review systematically elaborates on the mechanisms underlying physiological regulation and pathological dysregulation of biomolecular phase separation. It also summarizes advances in phase‑separation‑targeted therapeutic strategies and the design of functional biomaterials inspired by this process.

Discovery of a Novel Molecule that Regulates Tumor Growth and Metastasis

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2008
The heparan sulfate proteoglycan, Glypican-1 (GPC1), significantly impacts the growth of pancreatic cancer cells in vivo and markedly attenuates tumor angiogenesis and metastasis in athymic mice.
