Spatial and temporal changes in the distribution of proteoglycans during avian neural crest development [PDF]

, 1991
In this study, we describe the distribution of various classes of proteoglycans and their potential matrix ligand, hyaluronan, during neural crest development in the trunk region of the chicken embryo.

Cellular internalization of alpha-synuclein aggregates by cell surface heparan sulfate depends on aggregate conformation and cell type. [PDF]

, 2017
Amyloid aggregates found in the brain of patients with neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, are thought to spread to increasingly larger areas of the brain through a prion-like seeding mechanism.

Opticin Binds to Heparan and Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycans

Investigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2005
The extracellular matrix glycoprotein opticin is a small leucine-rich repeat proteoglycan/protein family member that was discovered associated with vitreous humor collagen fibrils. Opticin is present throughout the vitreous, but is particularly concentrated at the internal limiting lamina, where it colocalizes with type XVIII collagen.

Physiological pH Transition‐Driven Protein Corona Dynamics Regulate Cellular Uptake and Inflammatory Responses of Silica Nanoparticles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Physiological pH transitions modulate protein corona dynamics on nanoparticles, altering their cellular uptake and inflammatory responses. Acidic pHs enhance protein adsorption, induce structural changes, and promote cellular uptake. Simultaneously, inflammatory responses are reduced due to altered protein composition, including decreased ...

Syndecan-1 Promotes Hepatocyte-Like Differentiation of Hepatoma Cells Targeting Ets-1 and AP-1

Biomolecules, 2020
Syndecan-1 is a transmembrane heparan sulfate proteoglycan which is indispensable in the structural and functional integrity of epithelia. Normal hepatocytes display strong cell surface expression of syndecan-1; however, upon malignant transformation ...

Proteoglycan neofunctions: regulation of inflammation and autophagy in cancer biology. [PDF]

, 2017
Inflammation and autophagy have emerged as prominent issues in the context of proteoglycan signaling. In particular, two small, leucine-rich proteoglycans, biglycan and decorin, play pivotal roles in the regulation of these vital cellular pathways and ...

Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycan Is a Mechanosensor on Endothelial Cells [PDF]

Circulation Research, 2003
The objective of this study was to test whether a glycosaminoglycan component of the surface glycocalyx layer is a fluid shear stress sensor on endothelial cells (ECs). Because enhanced nitric oxide (NO) production in response to fluid shear stress is a characteristic and physiologically important response of ECs, we evaluated NO

RIPK1 Drives JAK1‐STAT3 Signaling to Promote CXCL1‐Mediated Neutrophil Recruitment in Sepsis‐Induced Lung Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This article examines the central role of RIPK1 in the pathogenesis of sepsis‐induced lung injury. It elucidates how RIPK1 initiates an inflammatory cascade by activating JAK1‐STAT3 signaling, leading to CXCL1‐mediated neutrophil infiltration. Importantly, it demonstrates that pharmacological inhibition of RIPK1 effectively attenuates inflammation and ...

Discovery of a Novel Molecule that Regulates Tumor Growth and Metastasis

The 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.

Congenital Disorders of Deficiency in Glycosaminoglycan Biosynthesis

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) including chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, and heparan sulfate are covalently attached to specific core proteins to form proteoglycans, which are distributed at the cell surface as well as in the extracellular matrix ...
