Heparan sulfate proteoglycans present PCSK9 to the LDL receptor [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
PCSK9 interacts with LDL receptor, causing its degradation, and consequently reduces the clearance of LDL. Here, Gustafsen et al. show that PCSK9 interacts with heparan sulfate proteoglycans and this binding favors LDLR degradation.

Functions of Cell Surface Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans

open access: yesAnnual Review of Biochemistry, 1999
▪ Abstract  The heparan sulfate on the surface of all adherent cells modulates the actions of a large number of extracellular ligands. Members of both cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan families, the transmembrane syndecans and the glycosylphosphoinositide-linked glypicans, bind these ligands and enhance formation of their receptor-signaling ...

R-spondins engage heparan sulfate proteoglycans to potentiate WNT signaling [PDF]

open access: yeseLife, 2020
R-spondins (RSPOs) amplify WNT signaling during development and regenerative responses. We previously demonstrated that RSPOs 2 and 3 potentiate WNT/β-catenin signaling in cells lacking leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptors (LGRs) 4,

Opticin Binds to Heparan and Chondroitin Sulfate Proteoglycans

open access: yesInvestigative 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.

Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2011
Heparan sulfate proteoglycans are found at the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix, where they interact with a plethora of ligands. Over the last decade, new insights have emerged regarding the mechanism and biological significance of these interactions.

Heparan sulfates and heparan sulfate proteoglycans in hematopoiesis.

open access: yesBlood
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]

open access: yesProteoglycan Res
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 ...

Alterations in heparan sulfate proteoglycan synthesis and sulfation and the impact on vascular endothelial function

open access: yesMatrix Biology Plus, 2022
The glycocalyx attached to the apical surface of vascular endothelial cells is a rich network of proteoglycans, glycosaminoglycans, and glycoproteins with instrumental roles in vascular homeostasis.
