Abstract Background Chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs) are principal pericellular
and extracellular components that form regulatory milieu involving numerous biological and …

Proteoglycans (PGs), molecules in which glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are covalently linked
to a protein core, are components of the extracellular matrix of all multicellular organisms …

Abstract Vitamin C (Vit C) benefits to human skin physiology notably by stimulating the
biosynthesis of collagen. The main cutaneous collagens are types I and III, which are less …

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are essential polysaccharides in normal physiology and
disease. However, understanding of the contribution of specific GAG structures to specific …

Proteoglycans (PGs) are a diverse family of proteins that consist of one or more
glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains, covalently linked to a core protein. PGs are major …

The presence of iduronic acid in chondroitin/dermatan sulfate changes the properties of the
polysaccharides because it generates a more flexible chain with increased binding …

Although the development of sea urchin embryos has been studied extensively and clearly
involves both cell adhesion and cell migration, rather little is known about the adhesion …

Chondroitin sulfate (CS), dermatan sulfate (DS) and heparan sulfate (HS) are covalently
attached to specific core proteins to form proteoglycans in their biosynthetic pathways. They …

The crucial roles of dermatan sulfate (DS) have been demonstrated in tissue development of
the cutis, blood vessels, and bone through construction of the extracellular matrix and cell …

We present clinical and molecular findings of three patients with an EDS VIB phenotype from
two consanguineous families. The clinical findings of EDS kyphoscoliotic type (EDS type VIA …
