The influence of physiological load on proteoglycan synthesis in trypsin-treated discs.

, 2014
Proteoglycan content was evaluated by the DMMB assay in NP tissue of loaded and unloaded IVDs after 14 days of culture. The IVDs were injected with 0, 10 or 100 µg trypsin prior to loading. Proteoglycan content was normalized to tissue weight (n 6, error

Multi‐Technique Integration Identifies O‐GlcNAc Transferase in Fibroblast‐Like Synoviocytes as a Therapeutic Target for Rheumatoid Arthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
AI‑guided single‑cell transcriptomics identifies OGT as a key regulator enriched in rheumatoid arthritis fibroblast‑like synoviocytes (RA‐FLSs). Inflammatory stimuli activate the OGT–SAP130 axis, which modulates the H3K27ac/H3K27me3 balance and epigenetically silences BTG2, promoting aggressive transformation of RA‑FLSs.

Endosomal signalling via exosome surface TGFβ-1

Journal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2019
Extracellular vesicles such as exosomes convey biological messages between cells, either by surface-to-surface interaction or by shuttling of bioactive molecules to a recipient cell’s cytoplasm.

Increased Disarray of Extracellular Matrix Collagen‐I Fiber Network and Compromised Biomechanics in Aortae From Marfan‐Syndrome Mice Assessed Through Combined Opto‐Biomechatronics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Combined structure‐function assessment in aortic rings from Marfan mice using MechaMorph Opto‐Biomechatronics technology relates increased elasticity (stiffness) and dynamic viscosity and less ordered extracellular matrix 3D‐structure (collagen) as potential causes for impaired Windkessel function and compromised haemodynamics in Marfan's syndrome ...

Interleukin‐1α Mediates Pancreatic Fibroblast Activation, Regulates Immune Cell Recruitment and Fibrosis in Acute and Chronic Pancreatitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
During pancreatitis, IL‐1α is released from necrotic acinar cells. In response to IL‐1α, pancreatic fibroblasts release chemokines and cytokines that regulate the recruitment of immune cells to the damaged organ. Furthermore, IL‐1α primes fibroblasts, resulting in increased tissue fibrosis during chronic pancreatitis.

A Systematic Review of Extracellular Matrix-Related Alterations in Parkinson’s Disease

Brain Sciences
The role of the extracellular matrix (ECM) in Parkinson’s disease (PD) is not well understood, even though it is critical for neuronal structure and signaling.

TGFBI Maintains Fibrocartilage Homeostasis by Restraining O‐GlcNAcylation to Inactivate and Destabilize ADAMTS16 in Temporomandibular Joint Osteoarthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
TGFBI deficiency elevates O‐GlcNAcylation, promoting the transcriptional activation of ADAMTS16 and OGT‐mediated post‐translational modification of ADAMTS16 at Ser1170. This leads to its stabilization and accumulation, driving chondrocyte metabolic disorders and senescent phenotypes, ultimately resulting in fibrocartilage dysfunction and TMJOA ...

Smad and p38 MAP kinase-mediated signaling of proteoglycan synthesis in vascular smooth muscle [PDF]

, 2008
Atherosclerosis is the underlying pathological process of most cardiovascular disease. A critical component of the "response to retention" hypothesis of atherogenesis is proteoglycan/low density lipoprotein (LDL) binding.

Longitudinal Multifrequency MR Elastography Reveals Biomechanical Signatures of Progression in a Translational Liver Tumor Model

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Longitudinal multifrequency magnetic resonance elastography (mMRE) performed on a clinical 3 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging system reveals early biomechanical alterations during liver tumor progression in a translational VX2 model. Changes in tumor stiffness and viscosity precede diffusion‐related alterations and are associated with extracellular ...
