Chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan is involved in lens vesicle morphogenesis in chick embryos.
Proteoglycans have been implicated in the invagination and formation of various embryonal cavitied primordia. In this paper the expression of chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan (CSPG) is analysed in the lens primordium during lens vesicle formation, and demonstrate that this proteoglycan has a specific distribution pattern with regard to invagination and fusion processes in the transformation of...
متن کاملBasal membrane heparan sulphate proteoglycan expression during wound healing in human skin.
Heparan sulphate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are integral components of the basement membrane (BM) in various tissues. HSPGs are important in the assembly and structure of the BM, and their putative functions include regulation of basement membrane permeability, binding of growth factors, and a role in cellular adhesion. In this study the expression of HSPG was examined during wound healing in human ...
متن کاملSpalt4 mediates invagination and otic placode gene expression in cranial ectoderm.
Vertebrate placodes are regions of thickened head ectoderm that contribute to paired sensory organs and cranial ganglia. We demonstrate that the transcription factor Spalt4 (also known as Sall4) is broadly expressed in chick preplacodal epiblast and later resolves to otic, lens and olfactory placodes. Ectopic expression of Spalt4 by electroporation is sufficient to induce invagination of non-pl...
متن کاملSprouty gene function in otic placode induction
other ions transepithelially with a suite of pumps and transporters, how these proton-secreting cells (PSCs) arise developmentally is unknown. Here, we identify a cell type in the X. laevis larval that expresses a collection of transporters strikingly similar to those observed in the mammalian kidney, including “kidney”-specific isoforms of the H+V-ATPase and Cl−/HCO3− antiporters related to pe...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of heparan sulphate proteoglycan from bovine brain.
A heparan sulphate proteoglycan was purified from adult bovine brain tissues and its structure was characterized. The major heparan sulphate proteoglycan from whole bovine brain had a molecular mass of >200 kDa on denaturing SDS/PAGE and a core protein size of 66 kDa following the removal of glycosaminoglycan chains. Fractionation on DEAE-Sephacel showed that this proteoglycan consisted of thre...
