Radioimmunoassay of Proteoglycans

Journal of Immunoassay, 1984
Human articular cartilage proteoglycan monomers (PG) were purified and used for developing a radioimmunoassay. Its analytical sensitivity is 0.6 ng/tube and its clinical sensitivity is 20 microliter/tube for serum and 0.12 microliter/tube for synovial fluid.

Proteoglycans and proteoglycan mimetics for tissue engineering

American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology, 2022
Proteoglycans play a crucial role in proper tissue morphology and function throughout the body that is defined by a combination of their core protein and the attached glycosaminoglycan chains. Although they serve a myriad of roles, the functions of extracellular proteoglycans can be generally sorted into four categories: modulation of tissue ...

Proteoglycans in retina

Progress in Retinal and Eye Research, 2002
In this article, we summarize the roles of proteoglycans in retinal tissue. Chondroitin sulfate and heparan sulfate proteoglycans are the major constituents in proteoglycans expressed in retinal tissue. Soluble heparan sulfate proteoglycans are found in the extracellular matrices of the basement membrane, such as the inner limiting membrane and Bruch's

Small proteoglycans

Experientia, 1993
In this review the structure and functions of two non-related proteoglycan families are discussed. One family represents a group of extracellular matrix macromolecules characterized by core proteins with leucine-rich repeat motifs. Within this family special attention is given to those members which carry chondroitin or dermatan sulfate ...

Proteoglycans in Dentinogenesis

Critical Reviews in Oral Biology & Medicine, 2001
The predominant proteoglycans present in predentin and dentin are the chondroitin-sulphate-rich decorin and biglycan and the keratan-sulphate-rich lumican and fibromodulin. These are small, interstitial, leucine-rich proteoglycans which have recently been shown to exist in gradients across the predentin.

Proteoglycans in the Eye

Cornea, 2002
Various proteoglycans are expressed in ocular tissues. We investigated and reviewed the distribution and the potential roles of proteoglycans in cornea, trabecular meshwork, and retinal tissues.Immunohistochemical studies were performed in rat ocular tissues. The concentration of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta2, which regulates the expression of

Proteoglycans and Diabetes

Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2017
Most proteoglycans are heterogeneous molecules composed of a protein core with glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) attached. GAGs are highly negatively charged molecules that readily bind to enzymes, growth factors, cytokines etc. and as such have many functions.

Cytokines and proteoglycans

1994
Cytokines play an important regulatory role in the metabolism of proteoglycans. Proteoglycans are found in plasma membranes, but predominantly in the extra-cellular matrix. In the latter they are quantitatively and qualitatively essential components. Especially in a tissue like cartilage without any blood vessels, the cells are dependent on cytokines ...

Proteoglycans and cells

Bulletin of Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1996
Studies of proteoglycans for their capacity to perform the function of steric exclusion of cells are reviewed. The ability of the proteoglycans hyaluronic acid and protein-chrondroitinkeratosulfate and their aggregates to effect cell aggregation and steric exclusion is determined by the structure of glycosaminoglycan components and the amount of ...
