Profiling Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans in Ovarian Carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2005
: heparan sulfate, proteoglycans, syndecan, glypican, perlecan, ovarian carcinoma, angiogenesis, prognostic factors Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are ubiquitously expressed cell surface and extracellular matrix (ECM) molecules consisting of a core protein covalently attached to the structurally complex glycosaminoglycan, heparan sulfate (HS ...

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans and cancer [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Cancer, 2001
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.

Apolipoprotein F is reduced in humans with steatosis and controls plasma triglyceride‐rich lipoprotein metabolism

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Hepatic APOF transcript levels correlate inversely with plasma TG and hepatic steatosis in humans. ApoF expression in mice promotes VLDL‐TG production and lipoprotein remnant clearance in mice. Abstract Background NAFLD affects nearly 25% of the global population. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the most common cause of death among patients with NAFLD,

Adeno‐associated virus serotype 2 capsid variants for improved liver‐directed gene therapy

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Current liver‐directed gene therapies look for adeno‐associated virus (AAV) vectors with improved efficacy. With this background, capsid engineering is explored. Whereas shuffled capsid library screenings have resulted in potent liver targeting variants with one first vector in human clinical trials, modifying natural ...

Fibroblast EXT1-levels influence tumor cell proliferation and migration in composite spheroids. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Stromal fibroblasts are important determinants of tumor cell behavior. They act to condition the tumor microenvironment, influence tumor growth, support tumor angiogenesis and affect tumor metastasis.

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans at a glance [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cell Science, 2007
Proteoglycans are abundant components of the cell surface and extracellular matrix that mediate critical interactions between cells and their environment. They play a variety of biological roles in normal tissues and in response to injury and disease.

Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans Biosynthesis and Post Synthesis Mechanisms Combine Few Enzymes and Few Core Proteins to Generate Extensive Structural and Functional Diversity

open access: yesMolecules, 2020
Glycosylation is a common and widespread post-translational modification that affects a large majority of proteins. Of these, a small minority, about 20, are specifically modified by the addition of heparan sulfate, a linear polysaccharide from the ...

Evidence for the role of proteoglycans in cation-mediated gene transfer [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
We report evidence that gene complexes, consisting of polycations and plasmid DNA enter cells via binding to membrane-associated proteoglycans. Treatment of HeLa cells with sodium chlorate, a potent inhibitor of proteoglycan sulfation, reduced luciferase

Heparan sulfate proteoglycan-dependent neutrophil chemotaxis toward PR-39 cathelicidin

open access: yesJournal of Inflammation, 2006
Cathelicidins are mammalian proteins containing a C-terminal cationic antimicrobial domain. Porcine PR-39 cathelicidin affects leukocyte biology.

Identification of function-regulating antibodies targeting the receptor protein tyrosine phosphatase sigma ectodomain. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Receptor tyrosine phosphatase sigma (RPTPσ) plays an important role in the regulation of axonal outgrowth and neural regeneration. Recent studies have identified two RPTPσ ligands, chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) and heparan sulfate ...
