Dermatan sulfate oligosaccharides having reducing end 2,5-anhydro-d-talose were prepared by partial N-deacetylation of dermatan sulfate polysaccharide with hydrazine followed by deamination with nitrous acid, and the effect of these oligosaccharides on the activity of bovine testicular hyaluronidase was investigated. Hydrolysis activity and transglycosylation activity of this enzyme were assessed in an independent reaction system by analyzing the products by HPLC. Dermatan sulfate oligosaccharides inhibited hyaluronan hydrolysis by bovine testicular hyaluronidase. Kinetic analysis of the hydrolysis reaction revealed that the inhibition mode by dermatan sulfate oligosaccharides was as competitive as that previously shown by chondroitin sulfate oligosaccharides. Transglycosylation of hyaluronan by bovine testicular hyaluronidase, as a reverse reaction of hydrolysis of hyaluronan, was also inhibited. These inhibitory effects were dependent on the dose and sulfation degree of dermatan sulfate.

Introduction: Musculocontractural Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (mcEDS) is a rare autosomal recessive connective tissue disorder caused by systemic depletion of dermatan sulfate. Symptoms characteristic of mcEDS include multiple contractures, fragile skin with subcutaneous bleeding, and hypermobile joints, which suggest difficulty in perioperative management. However, safe surgical techniques and perioperative management of this disorder remain unknown because of its rarity.

Cadmium is a heavy metal risk factor for various cardiovascular diseases, such as atherosclerosis. In atherosclerotic lesions, hyaluronan, a glycosaminoglycan consisting of β4-glucuronic acid-β3-N-acetylglucosamine disaccharides repeats, is highly accumulated, regulating signal transduction, cell migration, and angiogenesis. Hyaluronan is synthesized by hyaluronan synthase (HAS)1-3 in the plasma membrane and secreted into the extracellular space.

Cartilage destruction in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is diagnosed, often too late, on basis of clinical evaluation and radiographic imaging. This case-control study investigated serum chondroitin/dermatan sulfate (CS/DS) as a potential biochemical marker of cartilage metabolism, aiming to improve early diagnosis and precision treatment for JIA. We also measured the levels of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and insulin-like growth factor-binding protein-3 (IGFBP-3) (using ELISA methods) in JIA patients ( = 55) both before and after treatment (prednisone, sulfasalazine, methotrexate, administered together), and analyzed their relationships with CS/DS levels.

Purpose: We developed human cornea organoids (HCOs) from induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) where single-cell RNA-sequence (scRNA-seq) analysis suggested similarity with developing rather than mature human corneas. We performed immunohistology to determine the presence of corneal glycosaminoglycans as an assessment of maturity. We undertook a detailed comparison of the HCO scRNA-seq data with a recent scRNA-seq study of human fetal corneas at different stages to gauge the HCO's maturity.

RNA interference, a naturally occurring regulatory mechanism in which small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules are responsible for the sequence-specific suppression of gene expression, emerged as one of the most promising gene therapies in cancer. In this work, we investigate a microfluidics double self-assembly method based on micellization and polyelectrolyte complex formation for the encapsulation of siRNA targeting the BIRC5 gene, a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis gene family, that codes for survivin a protein of theinhibitorof apoptosis protein family that is involved in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) proliferation and metastasis within nanoparticles of an amphiphilic chitosan-graft-poly(methyl methacrylate) copolymer and low-molecular weight dermatan sulfate, a polysaccharide targeting the CD44 receptor overexpressed in this tumor. Nanoparticles are spherical and display a hydrodynamic diameter of ∼ 200 nm, as measured by dynamic light scattering and scanning electron microscopy.
