Structural insights on perlecan and Schwartz–Jampel syndrome
Perlecan is an essential multi-domain, disulfide bond rich basement membrane protein. Mutations in perlecan cause Schwartz-Jampel syndrome and dyssegmental dysplasia. While there has been a large body of experimental work reported on perlecan, there is only minimal structural information available to date. There is no prior structural data for region 3

Perlecan and synaptophysin changes in denervated skeletal muscle.
The present study observed sciatic nerve and gastrocnemius muscle changes in denervated rats using morphology methods, and assessed expression of perlecan, an extracellular matrix component, which is located at the skeletal muscle cell surface as acetylcholine esterase, as well as synaptophysin, a synaptic marker.

Background: Schwartz–Jampel syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the HSPG2 gene, leading to perlecan deficiency. Perlecan is a heparan sulfate proteoglycan critical for cartilage integrity, basement membrane stability ...
