Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans in Tauopathy [PDF]
Tauopathies are a class of neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s disease, and are characterized by intraneuronal tau inclusion in the brain and the patient’s cognitive decline with obscure pathogenesis.

Heparan Sulfate and Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans in Cancer Initiation and Progression [PDF]
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

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans in glomerular inflammation [PDF]
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 Proteoglycans in Human Colorectal Cancer [PDF]
Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer worldwide, accounting for more than 610,000 mortalities every year. Prognosis of patients is highly dependent on the disease stage at diagnosis.

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans are highly glycosylated proteins in which heparan sulfate, a glycosaminoglycan sugar chain, is an acidic sugar chain consisting of a repeating disaccharide structure of glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine is locally ...

A Genome-Wide CRISPR/Cas9-Based Screen Identifies Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans as Ligands of Killer-Cell Immunoglobulin-Like Receptors [PDF]
While human leukocyte antigen (HLA) and HLA-like proteins comprise an overwhelming majority of known ligands for NK-cell receptors, the interactions of NK-cell receptors with non-conventional ligands, particularly carbohydrate antigens, is less well ...

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans and cancer [PDF]
Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are widely distributed in mammalian tissues and involved in a number of processes related to malignancy. They are composed of a core protein to which chains of the glycosaminoglycan, heparan sulfate (HS), are attached.

Heparan sulfates and heparan sulfate proteoglycans in hematopoiesis.
Abstract From signaling mediators in stem cells to markers of differentiation and lineage commitment to facilitators for the entry of viruses, such as HIV-1, cell surface heparan sulfate (HS) glycans with distinct modification patterns play important roles in hematopoietic biology.

Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans in Immunity. [PDF]
ABSTRACT In immune cells, heparin was first identified in mast cells in the 1940s, followed by the discovery of heparan sulfate in lymphocytes and granulocytes during the 1970s and 1980s. Subsequent decades of research have revealed how heparan sulfate and heparin, conjugated to core proteins as heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs ...

Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans as Relays of Neuroinflammation. [PDF]
Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are implicated as inflammatory mediators in a variety of settings, including chemokine activation, which is required to recruit circulating leukocytes to infection sites. Heparan sulfate (HS) polysaccharide chains are highly interactive and serve co-receptor roles in multiple ligand:receptor interactions.
