Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) nằm ở trên bề mặt tế bào hoặc trong khoảng gian bào của tất cả các mô động vật. HSPG và các protein liên kết với chúng tham gia vào nhiều quá trình sinh học của tế bào như: sự liên kết tế bào - tế bào, quá trình phân bào, biệt hóa, sự di chuyển và các quá trình sinh bệnh lý của tế bào [1, 2, 6]. Khoảng gian bào là nơi lưu giữ và giải phóng các enzyme proteinase, các chất ức chế và các yếu tố phát triển tế bào. Những tác nhân gây ra sự giải phóng các yếu tố...

In seminiferous tubules, Sertoli cells provide structural and nutritional support for the developing germinal cells. Cellto-cell signaling and cell adhesion require proteoglycans expressed at the cell membrane. A preliminary biochemical and structural approach indicated that cell surface proteoglycans are mostly heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG). Glypican-1, syndecans-1 and -4 were identified using a molecular approach.

Decorin is a small leucine-rich chondroitin/dermatan sulfate proteoglycan reported to interact with ®brillar collagens through its protein core and to localize atdandebands of the collagen ®bril banding pattern. Using a solid-phase assay, we have determined the interaction of peptides derivedbyCNBr cleavage of type I and type II collagenwith decorin extracted from bovine tendon and its protein core and with a recombinant decorin preparation.

Basic ®broblast growth factor (bFGF) regulates diversi®ed biological functions in rat Sertoli cells. This report demon-strates that bFGF inhibits steroidogenesis in developing rat Sertoli cells. Follicle stimulating hormone (FSH)-stimulated estradiol production was reduced by bFGF. Moreover, the amount of cytochrome P450 aromatase, responsible for the irreversible transformation of androgens into estrogens, is decreased by bFGF at the transcriptional level.

Testican-1, a secreted proteoglycan enriched in brain, has a single thyropin domain that is highly homologous to domains previously shown to inhibit cysteine proteases. We demonstrate that purified recombinant human testican-1 is a strong competitive inhibitor of the lysosomal cysteine pro-tease, cathepsin L,withaKiof 0.7nM, but it does not inhibit the structurally related lysosomal cysteine protease cathep-sin B. Testican-1 inhibition of cathepsin L is independent of its chondroitin sulfate chains and is effective at both pH 5.5 and7.2.

In the leukemic macrophage cell-line THP-1, a fraction of the secreted matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) is linked to the core protein of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPG). Unlike the monomeric and homodimeric forms of MMP-9, the addition of exogenous CaCl2 to the proMMP-9/CSPG complex resulted in an active gelatinase due to the induction of an autocatalytic removal of the N-terminal prodomain.

The importance of proteoglycans for secretionof proteolytic enzymes was studied in the murine macrophage cell line J774. Untreated or 4b-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA)-stimulated macrophages were treated with hexyl-b-D-thioxyloside to interfere with the attachment of glycosaminoglycan chains to their respective protein cores. Activation of the J774 macrophages with PMA resulted in increased secretion of trypsin-like serine proteinase activity.

Stromal cell-derived factor-1 (SDF-1)⁄CXCL12, the ligand for CXCR4, induces signal transduction. We previously showed that CXCL12 binds to high- and low-affinity sites expressed by primary cells and cell lines, and forms complexes with CXCR4 as expected and also with a proteoglycan, syndecan-4, but does not form complexes with syndecan-1, syndecan-2, CD44 or beta-glycan. We also demonstrated the occurrence of a CXCL12-independent heteromeric complex between CXCR4 and syndecan-4.

The small leucine-rich proteoglycan decorin can bind via its core protein to different types of collagens such as type I and type VI. To test whether decorin can act as a bridging molecule between these collagens, the binding properties of wild-type decorin, two full-length decorin species with single amino acid substitutions (DCN E180K, DCN E180Q), which previously showed reduced binding to collagen type I fibrils, and a truncated form of decorin (DCN Q153) to the these collagens were investi-gated. ...

Lactoferrin (Lf), a multifunctional molecule present in mammalian secretions and blood, plays important roles in host defense and cancer. Indeed, Lf has been reported to inhibit the proliferation of cancerous mammary gland epi-thelial cells and manifest a potent antiviral activity against human immunodeficiency virus and human cytomegalo-virus. The Lf-binding sites on the cell surface appear to be proteoglycans and other as yet undefined protein(s).

This work investigated the kinetics of catabolism and the catabolic fate of the newly synthesized 35 S-labelled proteo-glycans present in explant cultures of tendon. Tissue from the proximal region of bovine deep flexor tendon was incu-bated with [ 35 S]sulfate for 6 h and then placed in explant cultures for periods of up to 15 days. The amount of radi-olabel associatedwithproteoglycans and free [ 35 S]sulfate lost to themediumand retained in thematrixwas determined for each day in culture.

Madin–Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells, which do not normally express the proteoglycan (PG) serglycin, were stably transfected with cDNA for human serglycin fused to a polyhistidine tag (His-tag). Clones with differ-ent levels of serglycin mRNA expression were generated. One clone with lower and one with higher serglycin mRNA expression were selected for this study.

This study investigated the effects of two highly sulfated polysaccharides, calcium pentosan polysulfate and heparin, on the loss of newly synthesized proteoglycans from the matrix of explant cultures of bovine tendon. The tensional region of deep flexor tendon was incubated with [ 35 S]sulfate for 6 h and then placed in culture for up to 15 days.

In the absence of serglycin proteoglycans, connective tissue-type mast cells fail to assemble mature metachromatic secretory granules, and this is accompanied by a markedly reduced ability to store neutral proteases. However, the mechanisms behind these phenomena are not known.

The expression of proteoglycans (PGs), essential macromolecules of the tumor microenvironment, is markedly altered during malignant transforma-tion and tumor progression. Synthesis of stromal PGs is affected by factors secreted by cancer cells and the unique tumor-modified extracellular matrix may either facilitate or counteract the growth of solid tumors.

Heparanase is an endo-b-D-glucuronidase capable of cleaving heparan sul-fate side chains at a limited number of sites, yielding heparan sulfate frag-ments of still appreciable size. Importantly, heparanase activity correlates with the metastatic potential of tumor-derived cells, attributed to enhanced cell dissemination as a consequence of heparan sulfate cleavage and remod-eling of the extracellular matrix and basement membrane underlying epithe-lial and endothelial cells.

Proteolytic processes in the extracellular matrix are a major influence on cell adhesion, migration, survival, differentiation and proliferation. The syndecan cell-surface proteoglycans are important mediators of cell spread-ing on extracellular matrix and respond to growth factors and other bio-logically active polypeptides.

The small leucine-rich proteoglycans (SLRPs) are involved in many aspects of mammalian biology, both in health and disease. They are now being rec- ognized as key signaling molecules with an expanding repertoire of molecu- lar interactions affecting not only growth factors, but also various receptors involved in controlling cell growth, morphogenesis and immunity.
