Identification and Action Patterns of Two Chondroitin Sulfate Sulfatases From a Marine Bacterium Photobacterium sp. QA16

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Chondroitin sulfate (CS)/dermatan sulfate (DS) is a kind of sulfated polyanionic, linear polysaccharide belonging to glycosaminoglycan. CS/DS sulfatases, which specifically hydrolyze sulfate groups from CS/DS oligo-/polysaccharides, are potential tools ...

Kinetic and optical properties of a new probe for sulfatase activity assay

open access: yesData in Brief, 2017
A new probe for detecting sulfatase activity generated fluorescent N-methylisoindole when it was treated with sulfatase. Detailed synthetic procedures of reaction intermediates are described along with their spectral data.

Purification, Characterization, and Structural Studies of a Sulfatase from Pedobacter yulinensis

open access: yesMolecules, 2021
Sulfatases are ubiquitous enzymes that hydrolyze sulfate from sulfated organic substrates such as carbohydrates, steroids, and flavones. These enzymes can be exploited in the field of biotechnology to analyze sulfated metabolites in humans, such as ...

Estrogen Formation and Inactivation Following TBI: What we Know and Where we Could go

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2020
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is responsible for various neuronal and cognitive deficits as well as psychosocial dysfunction. Characterized by damage inducing neuroinflammation, this response can cause an acute secondary injury that leads to widespread ...

Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea—Resveratrol, Sulfotransferases and Sulfatases—A Long and Turbulent Journey from Intestinal Absorption to Target Cells

open access: yesMolecules, 2023
For nearly 30 years, resveratrol has attracted the scientific community’s interest. This has happened thanks to the so-called French paradox, that is, the paradoxically low mortality from cardiovascular causes in the French population despite a diet rich

Drug delivery in overcoming the blood-brain barrier: role of nasal mucosal grafting [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The blood–brain barrier (BBB) plays a fundamental role in protecting and maintaining the homeostasis of the brain. For this reason, drug delivery to the brain is much more difficult than that to other compartments of the body. In order to bypass or cross

Unraveling Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycan Binding Motif for Cancer Cell Selectivity

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2019
Membrane heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) regulate cell proliferation, migration, and differentiation and are therefore considered key players in cancer cell development processes.

Sulfatases: Critical Enzymes for Algal Polysaccharide Processing

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Microbial sulfatases are important biocatalysts in the marine environment where they play a key role in the catabolic biotransformation of abundant sulphated algal polysaccharides. The sulphate esters decorating algal polysaccharides, such as carrageenan,

Sulfatase 1 and sulfatase 2 as novel regulators of macrophage antigen presentation and phagocytosis [PDF]

open access: yesYeungnam University Journal of Medicine, 2021
Background Sulfation of heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) is critical for the binding and signaling of ligands that mediate inflammation. Extracellular 6-O-endosulfatases regulate posttranslational sulfation levels and patterns of HSPGs.

Resveratrol given intraperitoneally does not inhibit the growth of high-risk t(4;11) acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells in a NOD/SCID mouse model. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The efficacy of resveratrol as a preventive agent against the growth of t(4;11) acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) was evaluated in NOD.CB17-Prkdcscid/J mice engrafted with the human t(4;11) ALL SEM cell line.
