Nutrient sulfate is essential for numerous physiological functions in mammalian growth and development. Accordingly, disruptions to any of the molecular processes that maintain the required biological ratio of sulfonated and unconjugated substrates are likely to have detrimental consequences for mammalian physiology. Molecular processes of sulfate biology can be broadly grouped into four categories: firstly, intracellular sulfate levels are maintained by intermediary metabolism and sulfate transporters that mediate the transfer of sulfate across the plasma membrane; secondly, sulfate is converted to 3′-phosphoadenosine 5′-phosphosulfate (PAPS), which is the universal sulfonate donor for all sulfonation reactions; thirdly, sulfotransferases mediate the intracellular sulfonation of endogenous and exogenous substrates; fourthly, sulfate is removed from substrates via sulfatases. From the literature, we curated 91 human genes that encode all known sulfate transporters, enzymes in pathways of sulfate generation, PAPS synthetases and transporters, sulfotransferases and sulfatases, with a focus on genes that are linked to human and animal pathophysiology. The predominant clinical features linked to these genes include neurological dysfunction, skeletal dysplasias, reduced fecundity and reproduction, and cardiovascular pathologies. Collectively, this review provides reference information for genetic investigations of perturbed mammalian sulfate biology. 相似文献

Sulfate is required for proper cell growth and development of all organisms. We have shown that the renal sulfate transport system has dual roles in euryhaline eel, namely, maintenance of sulfate homeostasis and osmoregulation of body fluids. To clarify the physiological roles of sulfate transporters in teleost fish, we cloned orthologs of the mammalian renal sulfate transporters Slc13a1 (NaSi-1) and Slc26a1 (Sat-1) from eel (Anguilla japonica) and assessed their functional characteristics, tissue localization, and regulated expression. Full-length cDNAs coding for ajSlc13a1 and ajSlc26a1 were isolated from a freshwater eel kidney cDNA library. Functional expression in Xenopus oocytes revealed the expected sulfate transport characteristics; furthermore, both transporters were inhibited by mercuric chloride. Northern blot analysis, in situ hybridization, and immunohistochemistry demonstrated robust apical and basolateral expression of ajSlc13a1 and ajSlc26a1, respectively, within the proximal tubule of freshwater eel kidney. Expression was dramatically reduced after the transfer of eels from freshwater to seawater; the circulating sulfate concentration in eels was in turn markedly elevated in freshwater compared with seawater conditions (19 mM vs. 1 mM). The reabsorption of sulfate via the apical ajSlc13a1 and basolateral ajSlc26a1 transporters may thus contribute to freshwater osmoregulation in euryhaline eels, via the regulation of circulating sulfate concentration. 相似文献

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs), via their interactions with numerous effector molecules such as FGF-2, IL-8, and VEGF, regulate the biological activity of cells by acting as co-receptors that promote signaling. The extent and nature of their role as co-receptors is often misregulated in cancer as manifested by alterations in HSPG structure and expression level. This misregulation of HSPGs can aid in promoting the malignant phenotype. In addition to expression-related changes in HSPGs, recent discoveries indicate that HSPGs localized within the tumor microenvironment can be attacked by enzymes that alter proteoglycan structure resulting in dramatic effects on tumor growth and metastasis. This review focuses on remodeling of HSPGs by three distinct mechanisms that occur in vivo; (i) shedding of proteoglycan extracellular domains from cell surfaces, (ii) fragmentation of heparan sulfate chains by heparanase, and (iii) removal of sulfates from the 6-O position of heparan sulfate chains by extracellular sulfatases. Assessing or monitoring the remodeling of HSPGs has important implications for tumor diagnosis and patient prognosis while therapeutic manipulation of the remodeling process represents an exciting new possibility for treating cancer. 相似文献

Antibodies were raised against a small high-density and a large low-density form of heparan sulfate proteoglycan from a basement membrane-producing mouse tumor and were characterized by radioimmunoassays, immunoprecipitation and immunohistological methods. Antigenicity was due to the protein cores and included epitopes unique to the low density form as well as some shared by both proteoglycans. The antibodies did not cross-react with other basement membrane proteins or with chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans from interstitial connective tissues. The heparan sulfate proteoglycans occurred ubiquitously in embryonic and adult basement membranes and could be initially detected at the 2-4 cell stage of mouse embryonic development. Low levels were also found in serum. Biosynthetic studies demonstrated identical or similar proteoglycans in cultures of normal and carcinoembryonic cells and in organ cultures of fetal tissues. They could be distinguished from liver cell membrane heparan sulfate proteoglycan, indicating that the basement membrane types of proteoglycans represent a unique class of extracellular matrix proteins. 相似文献

Cell surface proteoglycans help present some polypeptide growth factors such as basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) to their receptors and may act as reservoirs for others such as transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta). Betaglycan, a cell surface heparan sulfate/chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan that binds TGF-beta via its core protein, is shown here to bind bFGF via its heparan sulfate chains. We investigated the potential for regulation of betaglycan by its ligands in osteoblasts, a system in which bFGF and TGF-beta have complementary effects. We report here that the apparent molecular mass of betaglycan from an osteoblast-enriched primary culture of fetal rat calvaria is decreased in response to bFGF, as detected by an increased electrophoretic migration of betaglycan. The betaglycan forms expressed in bFGF-treated osteoblasts have a reduced content of heparan sulfate GAGs, without detectable changes in the content of chondroitin sulfate GAGs or the size of the core protein. bFGF did not affect the overall population of cell-surface-associated proteins identified by sulfate labeling, which contained primarily heparan sulfate, and had only small effects on the major secreted proteoglycans, which were, by contrast, chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans. The effect of bFGF on betaglycan is therefore a selective one. These results suggest that cells can interact with members of the TGF-beta and FGF families through separate domains of the same membrane proteoglycan, and can selectively regulate the bFGF-binding carbohydrate chains of this proteoglycan in response to bFGF. 相似文献

We used a staining procedure specific for sulfated glycosaminoglycans, cuprolinic blue dye (CBD), and immunohistochemical techniques to determine the histological distribution and ultrastructural organization of proteoglycans in developing rabbit cornea. We found several types of CBD-stained structures located throughout the corneal stroma, indicative of the distribution and perhaps the chemical heterogeneity of proteoglycans in this tissue. Keratan sulfate-specific immunohistochemical evidence supports our cytochemical findings. Our results suggest that low-sulfated keratan sulfate proteoglycans are found throughout most of the developing stroma, with the exception of the posterior margin of this tissue. Highly sulfated keratan sulfate proteoglycans in young fetal corneas, initially restricted to the subepithelial stroma, progressively extend to deeper portions of the stroma with development. Dermatan sulfate proteoglycans are located throughout the stroma, including the posterior margin. Invoking a recently published "oxygen-lack hypothesis" and correlating the tissue location of proteoglycans with the source of oxygen, we hypothesize that the distribution of proteoglycans in the developing rabbit cornea is related to the selective synthesis of keratan sulfate glycosaminoglycans under hypoxic conditions. 相似文献

IntroductionSulf1 and Sulf2 are cell surface sulfatases, which remove specific 6-O-sulfate groups from heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycans, resulting in modulation of various HS-dependent signaling pathways. Both Sulf1 and Sulf2 knockout mice show impairments in brain development and neurite outgrowth deficits in neurons.ConclusionSulfs introduce dynamic changes in HS proteoglycan sulfation patterns of the postnatal cerebellum, thereby orchestrating fundamental mechanisms underlying brain development. 相似文献

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans are thought to mediate the action of growth factors. The heparan sulfate-containing proteoglycans in extracts of the bovine fetal rib growth plate were detected using the monoclonal antibody 3G10, which recognizes a neoepitope generated by heparitinase digestion (David, G., Bai, X. M., Van der Schueren, B., Cassiman, J. J., and Van den Berghe, H. (1992) J. Cell Biol. 119, 961-975). The heparan sulfate proteoglycans that react with this antibody were identified using antisera to known proteoglycans; purified using CsCl density gradient centrifugation, molecular sieve, and ion exchange chromatography; and then characterized. The major heparan sulfate proteoglycans in the growth plate had core proteins of 200 kDa and larger and were identified as perlecan and aggrecan. These two heparan sulfate proteoglycans could be effectively separated from each other by CsCl density gradient centrifugation alone. Perlecan contained 25% heparan sulfate and 75% chondroitin sulfate. The heparan sulfate chains on growth plate perlecan were considerably smaller than the chondroitin sulfate chains, and the heparan sulfate disaccharide content was different than that found for heparan sulfate from either kidney, tumor tissue, or growth plate aggrecan. Aggrecan contained only 0.1% heparan sulfate, which was localized to the CS-1 domain of aggrecan. These results indicate that perlecan and aggrecan would be the principal candidate proteoglycans involved in the action of heparan sulfate-binding proteins in the developing growth plate. 相似文献

Immunolocalization of an FGF-binding protein reveals a widespread expression pattern during different stages of mouse embryo development 总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4
Fibroblast growth factors (FGFs) play important roles during fetal and embryonic development. FGF-2 (basic FGF, bFGF) is widely expressed in the embryo and has been linked to tissue growth and remodeling. However, it is tightly bound to heparin sulfate proteoglycans of the extracellular matrix which quenches its biological activity. We showed previously that a secreted FGF-binding protein (FGF-BP) can mobilize and activate FGF-2 from the extracellular matrix. While considerable data exist on the expression and pivotal role of FGF-BP in tumor growth, less is known about FGF-BP during embryonic development. In this immunohistochemical study in mice, we show FGF-BP protein expression in a broad spectrum of tissues at various stages between day 8 and day 16 of embryonal development, and compare FGF-BP and FGF-2 immunolocalization. FGF-BP is detected in the digestive system, thymus, skin, hair follicles, dental germ, respiratory tract, various glandular tissues, kidney, liver, and certain areas of the CNS, with immunoreactivity being mainly confined to cells of primitive epithelia. The putative significance of these findings with regard to mobilization of FGF-2 or other molecules is discussed. From the locally confined, time-dependent, and apparently tightly regulated FGF-BP expression we propose that FGF-BP may play an important role in embryonic development. 相似文献

The human sulfatase family has 17 members, 13 of which have been characterized biochemically. These enzymes specifically hydrolyze sulfate esters in glycosaminoglycans, sulfolipids, or steroid sulfates, thereby playing key roles in cellular degradation, cell signaling, and hormone regulation. The loss of sulfatase activity has been linked to severe pathophysiological conditions such as lysosomal storage disorders, developmental abnormalities, or cancer. A novel member of this family, arylsulfatase K (ARSK), was identified bioinformatically through its conserved sulfatase signature sequence directing posttranslational generation of the catalytic formylglycine residue in sulfatases. However, overall sequence identity of ARSK with other human sulfatases is low (18–22%). Here we demonstrate that ARSK indeed shows desulfation activity toward arylsulfate pseudosubstrates. When expressed in human cells, ARSK was detected as a 68-kDa glycoprotein carrying at least four N-glycans of both the complex and high-mannose type. Purified ARSK turned over p-nitrocatechol and p-nitrophenyl sulfate. This activity was dependent on cysteine 80, which was verified to undergo conversion to formylglycine. Kinetic parameters were similar to those of several lysosomal sulfatases involved in degradation of sulfated glycosaminoglycans. An acidic pH optimum (∼4.6) and colocalization with LAMP1 verified lysosomal functioning of ARSK. Further, it carries mannose 6-phosphate, indicating lysosomal sorting via mannose 6-phosphate receptors. ARSK mRNA expression was found in all tissues tested, suggesting a ubiquitous physiological substrate and a so far non-classified lysosomal storage disorder in the case of ARSK deficiency, as shown before for all other lysosomal sulfatases. 相似文献

Hormone epidermal growth factor interactions in development 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Epidermal growth factor (EGF) is the most important member of a family of growth factors which exert their effects via a single 170,000 Mr plasma membrane receptor. Other members include transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha), amphiregulin and several viral growth factors. The receptor is widely distributed in fetal and postnatal tissues. The predominant family member in the fetus appears to be TGF-alpha. EGF production in tissues matures in the perinatal period. Activation of the receptor in the fetal and neonatal periods in rodents evokes important growth and development actions. Tissue EGF and EGF receptor concentrations are modulated by thyroid hormones, estrogen, testosterone and growth hormone, suggesting that selected growth and developmental actions of thyroid and steroid hormones may be mediated by EGF. 相似文献

Abstract: In the anaerobic treatment of sulfate-containing wastewater, sulfate reduction interferes with methanogenesis. Both mutualistic and competitive interactions between sulfate-reducing bacteria and methanogenic bacteria have been observed. Sulfate reducers will compete with methanogens for the common substrates hydrogen, formate and acetate. In general, sulfate reducers have better growth kinetic properties than methanogens, but additional factors which may be of importance in the competition are adherence properties, mixed substrate utilization, affinity for sulfate of sulfate reducers, relative numbers of bacteria, and reactor conditions such as pH, temperature and sulfide concentration. Sulfate reducers also compete with syntrophic methanogenic consortia involved in the degradation of substrates like propionate and butyrate. In the absence of sulfate these methanogenic consortia are very important, but in the presence of sulfate they are thought to be easily outcompeted by sulfate reducers. However, at relatively low sulfate concentrations, syntrophic degradation of propionate and butyrate coupled to HZ removal via sulfate reduction rather than via methanogenesis may become important. A remarkable feature of some sulfate reducers is their ability to grow fermentatively or to grow in syntrophic association with methanogens in the absence of sulfate. 相似文献

Cells having a fibroblast-like morphology were cultured from explants of adult rat lung tissue. (35S)Sulfate was incorporated into sulfated proteoglycans in the medium at a linear rate for up to 96 h, while the rate of incorporation into the cell layer increased gradually until reaching a plateau at 40 h. The culture medium contained proteoglycans which migrated as a single peak with Kav = 0.10 on Bio-Gel A-15. Their glycosaminoglycan components (Kav = 0.70 on Bio-Gel A-15) contained predominantly chondroitin sulfate (33 to 44% of the total galactosaminoglycans) or dermatan sulfate chains. Based on the results of chondroitinase AC-II and periodate degradation, disaccharide repeating units of the dermatan sulfate were composed of 36% iduronic acid, 50% 2-sulfoiduronate, and 14% glucuronic acid. A similar composition was found for the dermatan sulfate in the cell fraction. Almost one-half of the sulfate label in the cell fraction was in a heparan sulfate proteoglycan which migrated on Bio-Gel A-15 with Kav = 0.30. The heparan sulfate chains (Kav = 0.81 on Bio-Gel A-15) had few, if any, sulfated N-acetylglucosamine residues and did not contain 2-sulfoiduronic acid in neighboring disaccharide repeat sequences. These results indicate that fibroblast-like lung cells synthesize several types of multichain sulfated proteoglycans which have properties in common with those found in lung tissues. 相似文献

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans are complex molecules composed of a core protein with covalently attached glycosaminoglycan chains. While the protein part determines localization of the proteoglycan on the cell surfaces or in the extracellular matrix, the glycosaminoglycan component, heparan sulfate, mediates interactions with a variety of extracellular ligands such as growth factors and adhesion molecules. Through these interactions, heparan sulfate proteoglycans participate in many events during cell adhesion, migration, proliferation and differentiation. We are determining the multitude of proteoglycan functions, as their intricate roles in many pathways are revealed. They act as coreceptors for growth factors, participate in signalling during cell adhesion, modulate the activity of a broad range of molecules, and partake in many developmental and pathological processes, including tumorigenesis and wound repair. This review concentrates on biological roles of cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans, namely syndecans and glypicans, and outlines the progress achieved during the last decade in unraveling the molecular interactions behind proteoglycan functions. 相似文献

Alveolar formation or alveolarization is orchestrated by a finely regulated and complex interaction between growth factors and extracellular matrix proteins. The lung parenchyma contains various extracellular matrix proteins including proteoglycans, which are composed of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) linked to a protein core. Although GAGs are known to regulate growth factor distribution and activity according to their degree of sulfation the role of sulfated GAG in the respiratory system is not well understood. The degree of sulfation of GAGs is regulated in part, by sulfatases that remove sulfate groups. In vertebrates, the enzyme Sulfatase-Modifying Factor 1 (Sumf1) activates all sulfatases. Here we utilized mice lacking Sumf1(-/-) to study the importance of proteoglycan desulfation in lung development. The Sumf1(-/-) mice have normal lungs up until the onset of alveolarization at post-natal day 5 (P5). We detected increased deposition of sulfated GAG throughout the lung parenchyma and a decrease in alveolar septa formation. Moreover, stereological analysis showed that the alveolar volume is 20% larger in Sumf1(-/-) as compared to wild type (WT) mice at P10 and P30. Additionally, pulmonary function test was consistent with increased alveolar volume. Genetic experiments demonstrate that in Sumf1(-/-) mice arrest of alveolarization is independent of fibroblast growth factor signaling. In turn, the Sumf1(-/-) mice have increased transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) signaling and in vivo injection of TGFβ neutralizing antibody leads to normalization of alveolarization. Thus, absence of sulfatase activity increases sulfated GAG deposition in the lungs causing deregulation of TGFβ signaling and arrest of alveolarization. 相似文献

Confluent testicular peritubular cells derived from immature rats were used to study membrane associated proteoglycans (PG) Peripheral material (heparin releasable), membrane and intracellular material (Triton X-100 releasable) were collected, purified by anion exchange chromatography then characterized by gel filtration and by hydrophobic interaction chromatography, followed by enzymatic digestion and chemical treatment. The peripheral material was constituted of two populations of PG (Kav=0 and 0.10 on Superose 6 column), each containing both heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) and chondroitin proteoglycans (CSPG) and perhaps a hybrid PG (HSCSPG). These PG being not retained on an octyl Sepharose column they were devoided of hydrophobic properties. The integral membrane proteoglycans isolated on the basis of their hydrophobic properties represented 20% of the Triton X-100 releasable material, and were exclusively constituted of proteoheparan sulfate. There were no relationships between this membrane HSPG and the peripheral HSPG as evidenced by pulse chase experiments. The mode of intercalation of the hydrophobic HSPG in the cell membrane was studied. The majority of these macromolecules (80%) were sensitive to trypsin and only a minor proportion (20%) were sensitive to phosphatidylinositol specific phospholipase C. Thus, about 80% of the hydrophobic HSPG were intercalated in the cell membrane by a hydrophobic segment of the core protein whereas about 20% were associated with the cell membrane via a phosphatidylinositol residue covalently bound to the core protein of the PG.Abbreviations PG

Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is a serious complication in diabetes. Major typical
morphological changes are the result of changes in the extracellular matrix (ECM). Thus,
basement membranes are thickened and the glomerular mesangial matrix and the
tubulointerstitial space are expanded, due to increased amounts of ECM. One important ECM
component, the proteoglycans (PGs), shows a more complex pattern of changes in DN. PGs in
basement membranes are decreased but increased in the mesangium and the tubulointerstitial
space. The amounts and structures of heparan sulfate chains are changed, and such changes
affect levels of growth factors regulating cell proliferation and ECM synthesis, with cell
attachment affecting endothelial cells and podocytes. Enzymes modulating heparan sulfate
structures, such as heparanase and sulfatases, are implicated in DN. Other enzyme classes
also modulate ECM proteins and PGs, such as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and serine
proteases, such as plasminogen activator, as well as their corresponding inhibitors. The
levels of these enzymes and inhibitors are changed in plasma and in the kidneys in DN.
Several growth factors, signaling pathways, and hyperglycemia per se affect ECM synthesis
and turnover in DN. Whether ECM components can be used as markers for early kidney changes
is an important research topic, whereas at present, the clinical use remains to be
established. 相似文献
