The inflammation-associated protein TSG-6 cross-links hyaluronan via hyaluronan-induced TSG-6 oligomers.
Tumor necrosis factor-stimulated gene-6 (TSG-6) is a hyaluronan (HA)-binding protein that plays important roles in inflammation and ovulation. TSG-6-mediated cross-linking of HA has been proposed as a functional mechanism (e.g. for regulating leukocyte adhesion), but direct evidence for cross-linking is lacking, and we know very little about its impact on HA ultrastructure. Here we used films o...
متن کاملTSG-6: a multifunctional protein associated with inflammation.
TSG-6 expression is upregulated in many cell types in response to a variety of proinflammatory mediators and growth factors. This protein is detected in several inflammatory disease states (e.g. rheumatoid arthritis) and in the context of inflammation-like processes, such as ovulation, and is often associated with extracellular matrix remodelling. TSG-6 has anti-inflammatory and chondroprotecti...
متن کاملAnti-inflammatory protein TSG-6 reduces inflammatory damage to the cornea following chemical and mechanical injury.
Previous reports demonstrated that adult stem/progenitor cells from bone marrow (multipotent mesenchymal stem cells; MSCs) can repair injured tissues with little evidence of engraftment or differentiation. In exploring this phenomenon, our group has recently discovered that the therapeutic benefits of MSCs are in part explained by the cells being activated by signals from injured tissues to exp...
متن کاملTSG-6: a pluripotent inflammatory mediator?
TSG-6 is a multifunctional protein that is up-regulated in many pathological and physiological contexts, where it plays important roles in inflammation and tissue remodelling. For example, it is a potent inhibitor of neutrophil migration and can modulate the protease network through inhibition of plasmin. TSG-6 binds a wide range of GAGs (glycosaminoglycans) [i.e. HA (hyaluronan), chondroitin 4...
متن کاملPredictive values of plasma KL-6 in bronchopulmonary dysplasia in preterm infants.
BACKGROUND/AIM It has been suggested that plasma KL-6 increases in premature infants with bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). We aimed to evaluate the predictive values of KL-6 in BPD. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study was performed in preterm neonates with birthweight ≤1500 g and gestational age ≤32 weeks. Plasma KL-6 levels were measured on postnatal days 1, 7, and 14. RESULTS BPD was identif...
