Enzyme Replacement Therapy With Elosulfase Alfa Decreases Storage of Glycosaminoglycan in White Blood Cells of Patients With Morquio A Syndrome

open access: yesJournal of Inborn Errors of Metabolism and Screening, 2015
Mucopolysaccharidosis IVA (MPS IVA; Morquio A syndrome) is a lysosomal storage disorder caused by a deficient N-acetylgalactosamine-6-sulfate sulfatase activity, leading to cellular storage of undegraded keratan sulfate.

Isoforms of corneal keratan sulfate proteoglycan.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1990
Bovine corneal keratan sulfate proteoglycan was found to contain three major protein components. Two proteins (37 and 25 kDa) were released from the proteoglycan by endo-beta-galactosidase, N-glycanase, or chemical deglycosylation. A smaller protein (20 kDa), not covalently linked to keratan sulfate, co-purified with the proteoglycan by conventional ...

Proteolytic remodelling of the extracellular matrix by pericytes

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, Volume 293, Issue 13, Page 3899-3953, July 2026.
Pericytes are specialised perivascular cells intimately connected with endothelial cells and essential for the maintenance of vascular beds. They contribute to the formation and remodelling of the extracellular matrix by actively secreting proteases and protease inhibitors.

Macular corneal dystrophy with isolated peripheral Descemet membrane deposits

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2019
Purpose: Macular Corneal Dystrophy (MCD, MIM #217800) is a category 1 corneal stromal dystrophy as per the current IC3D classification. While characterized by macular stromal deposits, we report a case of MCD type II with isolated bilateral peripheral ...

Capillary endothelial cell heterogeneity in skeletal muscle of female and male mice

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, Volume 14, Issue 14, July 2026.
Abstract In skeletal muscle, capillaries have been shown to be critical to active hyperemia by sensing skeletal muscle activity and directing blood flow to contracting muscle fibers. There is evidence to suggest that capillary endothelial cell (EC) characteristics may change along the length of a capillary.

Preclinical Efficacy and Safety Study of a Novel Dermal Fibroblast Modulating Drug, SLI‐F06, in Cutaneous Wound Healing

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2026.
A novel, chemically synthesized fibromodulin (FMOD)‐derived peptide, SLI‐F06, has been developed to significantly improve scar appearance, tensile strength, and histological outcomes among multiple preclinical animal models. Demonstrating no genotoxicity or systemic/local toxicity, SLI‐F06 has received United States Food and Drug Administration ...

Prediction of progression of damage to articular cartilage 2 years after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: use of aggrecan and type II collagen biomarkers in a retrospective observational study

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2017
Background We aimed to determine whether synovial fluid (SF) biomarkers can predict the progression of articular cartilage damage as determined by arthroscopic evaluation during and after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.

The Linkage Region of Cartilage Keratan Sulfate to Protein

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1974
Abstract Glycopeptides derived from bovine nasal septum keratan sulfate by acid hydrolysis and gel chromatography are shown to be enriched in the carbohydrate-protein linkage region. The effects of alkali on these glycopeptides are compared to the effects on the starting material.

Integration of clinical data with a genome‐scale metabolic model of the human adipocyte

open access: yesMolecular Systems Biology, 2013
We evaluated the presence/absence of proteins encoded by 14 077 genes in adipocytes obtained from different tissue samples using immunohistochemistry. By combining this with previously published adipocyte‐specific proteome data, we identified proteins ...
