OBJECTIVE Heparan sulfate proteoglycans regulate key steps of blood vessel formation. The present study was undertaken to investigate if there is a functional overlap between heparan sulfate proteoglycans and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans during sprouting angiogenesis. METHODS AND RESULTS Using cultures of genetically engineered mouse embryonic stem cells, we show that angiogenic sproutin...
Profound changes occur in the uterine cervix during pregnancy. In particular, the extracellular matrix of the connective tissue is remodelled extensively. To elucidate the mechanisms involved in this process, we have analysed the proteoglycan pattern in the human cervix from pregnant and non-pregnant women. Proteoglycans of the cervix tissue specimen were extracted with 4 M guanidine hydrochlor...
Proteoglycans are abundantly expressed in the pathways of developing and regenerating neurons, yet the responses of neurons to specific proteoglycans are not well characterized. We have shown previously that one chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan (CSPG), aggrecan, is potently inhibitory to sensory axon extension in short-term assays and that over time, embryonic neurons adapt to aggrecan-mediated...
3T3-L1 fibroblasts were induced to differentiate to 3T3-L1 adipocytes by dexamethasone, isobutyl-methylxanthine, and insulin. To study how differentiation affects extracellular matrix production, the accumulation of proteoglycans was studied by labeling the 3T3-L1 cells with [35S]sulphate for 24 h. The labeled proteoglycans were isolated from the medium and cell layer extracts by anion-exchange...
Proteoglycans are involved in a variety of cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. These include cell adhesion, growth regulation and a number of developmental processes. Their involvement in such interactions may be of particular importance in retinitis pigmentosa (RP) because of the detachment and migration of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells often associated with this condition. Becaus...
Tendon remodeling occurs in response to changes in loading and mobilization. Though the normal mechanical function depends on precise alignment of collagen fibrils, it is proteoglycans that regulate collagen fibrillogenesis and thus, indirectly, tendon function. In this paper we discuss the basic biochemical structure of several members of two proteoglycans families. Decorin, biglycan, fibromod...
