Abstract: Retinas were labeled in culture with [3H]glucosamine or [3H]leucine and [35S]sulfate and extracted sequentially with physiologically balanced saline and 4 M guanidine HCl. They were dialyzed into associative conditions (0.5 M NaCl) and chromatographed on agarose columns. Under these conditions, some of the proteoglycans were associated in massive complexes that showed low buoyant densities when centrifuged in CsCl density gradients under dissociative conditions (4 M guanidine HCl). Much of the label in these complexes was in molecules other than proteoglycans. Most of the proteoglycans, however, were included on the agarose columns, where they appeared to be constitutionally of low buoyant density. They resisted attempts to separate potential low buoyant density contaminants from the major proteoglycans by direct CsCl density gradient centrifugation or by the fractionation of saline or 8 M urea extracts on diethylaminoethyl-Sephacel. The diethylaminoethyl-Sephacel fractions were either subjected to CsCl density gradient centrifugation or were chromatographed on Sephacryl S-300, in both cases before and after alkaline cleavage, to confirm the presence of typical O-linked glycosaminoglycans. The medium and balanced salt extracts were enriched in chondroitin sulfate and other sul-fated macromolecules, possibly highly sulfated oligosaccharides, that resisted digestion by chondroitinase ABC but were electrophoretically less mobile than heparan sulfate. Guanidine HCl or urea extracts of the residues were mixtures of high and low density proteoglycans that were enriched in heparan sulfate.  相似文献

Rat ovarian granulosa cells were isolated from immature female rats after stimulation with pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin and maintained in culture. Proteoglycans were labeled using [35S]sulfate, [3H]serine, [3H]glucosamine, or [3H]mannose as precursors. A species of heparan sulfate proteoglycan was purified using DEAE-Sephacel chromatography under dissociative conditions in the presence of detergent. The heparan sulfate proteoglycan, which constituted approximately 15% of the 35S-labeled proteoglycans in the culture medium has a similar hydrodynamic size (Kd = 0.62 on Sepharose CL-2B) and buoyant density distribution in CsCl density gradients as the low buoyant density dermatan sulfate proteoglycan synthesized by the same granulosa cells and described in the accompanying report (Yanagishita, M., and Hascall, V. C. (1983) J. Biol. Chem. 258, 12847-12856). The heparan sulfate chains (average Mr = 28,000) have an average of 0.8-0.9 sulfate groups/repeating disaccharide, of which 50% are N-sulfate, 30% are alkaline-labile O-sulfate (presumably on the 6-position of glucosamine residues), and 20% are alkaline-resistant O-sulfate groups. Alkaline borohydride treatment released both N-linked oligosaccharide-peptides containing mannose, glucosamine, and sialic acid, and O-linked oligosaccharides. Trypsin digestion of the proteoglycan generated fragments which contain (a) glycosaminoglycan-peptides with an average of 2 heparan sulfate chains/peptide; (b) clusters of O-linked oligosaccharides on peptides; and (c) N-linked oligosaccharide-peptides, which are as small as single N-linked oligosaccharides. The compositions of the O-linked and N-linked oligosaccharides and the trypsin fragments of this heparan sulfate proteoglycan were very similar to those of the low buoyant density dermatan sulfate proteoglycan synthesized by the same cells.  相似文献

Primary cultures that contain only Schwann cells and sensory nerve cells synthesize basal lamina. The assembly of this basal lamina appears to be essential for normal Schwann cell development. In this study, we demonstrate that Schwann cells synthesize two major heparan sulfate-containing proteoglycans. Both proteoglycans band in dissociative CsCl gradients at densities less than 1.4 g/ml, and therefore, presumably, have relatively low carbohydrate-to-protein ratios. The larger of these proteoglycans elutes from Sepharose CL-4B in 4 M guanidine hydrochloride (GuHCl) at a Kav of 0.21 and contains heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate chains of Mr 21,000 in a ratio of approximately 3:1. This proteoglycan is extracted from cultures by 4 M GuHCl but not Triton X-100 and accumulates only when Schwann cells are actively synthesizing basal lamina. The smaller proteoglycan elutes from Sepharose CL-4B at a Kav of 0.44 and contains heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate chains of Mr 18,000 in a ratio of approximately 4:1. This proteoglycan is extracted by 4 M GuHCl or by Triton X-100. The accumulation of this proteoglycan is independent of basal lamina production.  相似文献

Disulfide-bonded aggregates of heparan sulfate proteoglycans   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Heparan sulfate proteoglycans have been isolated from Swiss mouse 3T3 cells by using two nondegradative techniques: extraction with 4 M guanidine or 2.5% 1-butanol. These proteoglycans were separated from copurifying chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans by using ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-cellulose in the presence of 2 M urea. The purified heparan sulfate proteoglycans are substantially smaller, ca. Mr 20 000, than those isolated from these same cells with trypsin, ca. Mr 720 000 [Johnston, L.S., Keller, K. L., & Keller, J. M. (1979) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 583, 81-94]. However, all of the heparan sulfate proteoglycans extracted by these three methods contain similar glycosaminoglycan chains (Mr 7500) and are derived from the same pool of cell surface associated molecules. The trypsin-released heparan sulfate proteoglycan (ca. Mr 720 000) can be significantly reduced in size (ca. Mr 33 000) under strong denaturing conditions in the presence of the disulfide reducing agent dithiothreitol, which suggests that this form of the molecule is a disulfide-bonded aggregate. The heparan sulfate proteoglycan isolated from the medium also undergoes a significant size reduction in the presence of dithiothreitol, indicating that a similar aggregate is formed as part of the normal release of heparan sulfate proteoglycans into the medium. These results suggest that well-shielded disulfide bonds between individual heparan sulfate proteoglycan monomers may account for the large variation in sizes which has been reported for heparan sulfate proteoglycans isolated from a variety of cells and tissues with a variety of extraction procedures.  相似文献

Confluent cultured human lung fibroblasts were labeled with 35SO4(2-). After 48 h of labeling, the pericellular matrix was prepared by Triton X-100 and deoxycholate extraction of the monolayers. Heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG) accounted for nearly 80% of the total matrix [35S]proteoglycans. After solubilization in 6 M guanidinium HCl and cesium chloride density gradient centrifugation, the majority (78%) of these [35S] HSPG equilibrated at an average buoyant density of 1.35 g/ml. This major HSPG fraction was purified by ion-exchange chromatography on Mono Q and by gel filtration on Sepharose CL-4B, and further characterized by gel electrophoresis and immunoblotting. Intact [35S]HSPG eluted with Kav 0.1 from Sepharose CL-4B, whereas the protein-free [35S]heparan sulfate chains, obtained by alkaline borohydride treatment of the proteoglycan fractions, eluted with Kav 0.45 (Mr approximately 72,000). When analyzed by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and autoradiography, core (protein) preparations, obtained by heparitinase digestion of 125I-labeled HSPG fractions, yielded one major labeled band with apparent molecular mass of approximately 300 kDa. Reduction with beta-mercaptoethanol slightly increased the apparent Mr of the labeled band, suggesting a single polypeptide structure and the presence of intrachain disulfide bonds. Immunoadsorption experiments and immunostaining of electrophoretically separated heparitinase-digested core proteins with monoclonal antibodies raised against matrix and cell surface-associated HSPG suggested that the major matrix-associated HSPG of cultured human lung fibroblasts is distinct from the HSPG that are anchored in the membranes of these cells. Binding studies suggested that this matrix HSPG interacts with several matrix components, both through its glycosaminoglycan chains and through its heparitinase-resistant core. Core (protein) interactions seem to be responsible for the association of the proteoglycan with the extracellular matrix.  相似文献

The glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchor of the plasma membrane-associated heparan sulfate (HS) proteoglycan was metabolically radiolabeled with [3H]myristic acid, [3H]palmitic acid, [3H]inositol, [3H]ethanolamine, or [32P]phosphate in rat ovarian granulosa cell culture. Cell cultures labeled with [3H]myristic acid or [3H]palmitic acid were extracted with 4 M guanidine HCl buffer containing 2% Triton X-100 and the proteoglycans were purified by ion exchange chromatography after extensive delipidation. Specific incorporation of 3H into GPI-anchor was demonstrated by removing the label with a phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC). Incorporation of 3H activity into glycosaminoglycans and core glycoproteins was also demonstrated. However, the specific activity of 3H in these structures was approximately 2 orders of magnitude lower than that in the GPI-anchor, suggesting that 3H label was the result of the metabolic utilization of catabolic products of the 3H-labeled fatty acids. PI-PLC treatment of cell cultures metabolically labeled with [3H]inositol, [3H]ethanolamine, or [32P]phosphate specifically released radiolabeled cell surface-associated HS proteoglycans indicating the presence of GPI-anchor in these proteoglycans. GPI-anchored HS proteoglycans accounted for 20-30% of the total cell surface-associated HS proteoglycans and virtually all of them were removed by PI-PLC. These results further substantiate the presence of GPI-anchored heparan sulfate proteoglycan in ovarian granulosa cells and its cell surface localization.  相似文献

Proteoglycans, metabolically labelled with [3H]leucine and 35SO4(2-), were isolated from the spent media and from guanidinium chloride extracts of cultured human umbilical-vein endothelial cells by using isopycnic density-gradient centrifugation, gel filtration and ion-exchange h.p.l.c. The major proteoglycan species were subjected to SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis before and after enzymic degradation of the polysaccharide chains. The cell extract contained mainly a heparan sulphate proteoglycan that has a buoyant density of 1.31 g/ml and a protein core with apparent molecular mass 300 kDa. The latter was heterogeneous and migrated as one major and one minor band. After reduction, the apparent molecular mass of the major band increased to approx. 350 kDa, indicating the presence of intrachain disulphide bonds. The proteoglycan binds to octyl-Sepharose and its polysaccharide chains are extensively degraded by heparan sulphate lyase. The proteoglycans of the medium contained 90% of all the incorporated 35SO4(2-). Here the predominant heparan sulphate proteoglycan was similar to that of the cell extract, but was more heterogeneous and contained an additional core protein with apparent molecular mass 210 kDa. Furthermore, two different chondroitin sulphate proteoglycans were found: one 200 kDa species with a high buoyant density (approx. 1.45 g/ml) and one 100 kDa species with low buoyant density (approx. 1.3 g/ml). Both these proteoglycans have a core protein of molecular mass approx. 47 kDa.  相似文献

Heparan sulfate proteoglycans were extracted from rat brain microsomal membranes or whole forebrain with deoxycholate and purified from accompanying chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans and membrane glycoproteins by ion-exchange chromatography, affinity chromatography on lipoprotein lipase-Sepharose, and gel filtration. The proteoglycan has a molecular size of approximately 220,000, containing glycosaminoglycan chains of Mr = 14,000-15,000. In [3H]glucosamine-labeled heparan sulfate proteoglycans, approximately 22% of the radioactivity is present in glycoprotein oligosaccharides, consisting predominantly of N-glycosidically linked tri- and tetraantennary complex oligosaccharides (60%, some of which are sulfated) and O-glycosidic oligosaccharides (33%). Small amounts of chondroitin sulfate (4-6% of the total glycosaminoglycans) copurified with the heparan sulfate proteoglycan through a variety of fractionation procedures. Incubation of [35S]sulfate-labeled microsomes with heparin or 2 M NaCl released approximately 21 and 13%, respectively, of the total heparan sulfate, as compared to the 8-9% released by buffered saline or chondroitin sulfate and the 82% which is extracted by 0.2% deoxycholate. It therefore appears that there are at least two distinct types of association of heparan sulfate proteoglycans with brain membranes.  相似文献

Confluent adult and fetal human glomerular epithelial cells were incubated for 24 h in the presence of [3H]-amino acids and [35S]sulfate. Two heparan-35SO4 proteoglycans were released into the culture medium. These 35S-labeled proteoglycans eluted as a single peak from anion exchange chromatographic columns, but were separable by gel filtration on Sepharose CL-6B columns. The larger heparan-35SO4 proteoglycan eluted with the column void volume and at a Kav of 0.26 from Sepharose CL-4B columns. The most abundant medium heparan-35SO4 proteoglycan was a high buoyant density proteoglycan similar in hydrodynamic size (Sepharose CL-6B Kav 0.23) to those previously described in glomerular basement membranes and isolated glomeruli. Heparan-35SO4 chains from both proteoglycans were 36 kDa. A smaller proportion of Sepharose CL-6B excluded dermatan-35SO4 proteoglycan was also synthesized by these cells. The predominant protein cores of both medium heparan-35SO4 proteoglycans were approximately 230 and 180 kDa. A hybrid chondroitin/dermatan-heparan-35SO4 proteoglycan with an 80-kDa protein core copurified with the smaller medium heparan-35SO4 proteoglycan. This 35S-labeled proteoglycan appeared as a diffuse, chondroitinase ABC sensitive 155-kDa fluorographic band in sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gels after the Sepharose CL-6B Kav 0.23 35S-labeled proteoglycan fraction was digested with heparitinase. The heparitinase generated heparan sulfate proteoglycan protein cores and the 155-kDa hybrid proteoglycan fragment had molecular weights similar to those previously identified in rat glomerular basement membrane and glomeruli using antibodies against a basement membrane tumor proteoglycan precursor (Klein et al. J. Cell Biol. 106, 963-970, 1988). Thus, human glomerular epithelial cells in culture are capable of synthesizing, processing, and releasing heparan sulfate proteoglycans which are similar to those synthesized in vivo and found in the glomerular basement membrane. These proteoglycans may belong to a family of related basement membrane proteoglycans.  相似文献

The murine embryonal carcinoma derived cell line M1536-B3 secretes the basement membrane components laminin and entactin and, when grown in bacteriological dishes, produces and adheres to sacs of basement membrane components. Heparan sulfate proteoglycans have been isolated from these sacs, the cells, and the medium. At least three different heparan sulfate proteoglycans are produced by these cells as determined by proteoglycan size, glycosaminoglycan chain length, and charge density. The positions of the N- and O-sulfate groups in the glycosaminoglycan chains from each proteoglycan appear to be essentially the same despite differences in the size and culture compartment locations of the heparan sulfate proteoglycan. Additionally, small quantities of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans are found in each fraction and copurify with each heparan sulfate proteoglycan. Because this cell line appears to synthesize at least three different heparan sulfate proteoglycans which are targeted to different final locations (basement membrane, cell surface, and medium), this will be a useful system in which to study the factors which determine final heparan sulfate proteoglycan structures and culture compartment targeting and the possible effects of the protein core(s) on heparan sulfate carbohydrate chain synthesis and secretion.  相似文献

Heterogeneity of heparan sulfate proteoglycans synthesized by PYS-2 cells   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
Antibodies to the basement membrane proteoglycan produced by the EHS tumor were used to immunoprecipitate [35S]sulfate-labeled protoglycans produced by PYS-2 cells. The immunoprecipitated proteoglycans were subsequently fractionated by CsCl density gradient centrifugation and Sepharose CL-4B chromatography. The culture medium contained a low-density proteoglycan eluting from Sepharose CL-4B at Kav = 0.18, containing heparan sulfate side chains of Mr = 35-40,000. The medium also contained a high-density proteoglycan eluting from Sepharose CL-4B at Kav = 0.23, containing heparan sulfate side chains of Mr = 30,000. The corresponding proteoglycans of the cell layer were all smaller than those in the medium. Since the antibodies used to precipitate those proteoglycans were directed against the protein core, this suggests that these proteoglycans share common antigenic features, and may be derived from a common precursor which undergoes modification by the removal of protein segments and a portion of each heparan sulfate chain.  相似文献

We have isolated and characterized the cell-associated and secreted proteoglycans synthesized by a clonal line of rat adrenal medullary PC12 pheochromocytoma cells, which have been extensively employed for the study of a wide variety of neurobiological processes. Chondroitin sulfate accounts for 70-80% of the [35S] sulfate-labeled proteoglycans present in PC12 cells and secreted into the medium. Two major chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans were detected with molecular sizes of 45,000-100,000 and 120,000-190,000, comprising 14- and 105-kDa core proteins and one or two chondroitin sulfate chains with an average molecular size of 34 kDa. In contrast to the chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans, one major heparan sulfate proteoglycan accounts for most of the remaining 20-30% of the [35S] sulfate-labeled proteoglycans present in the PC12 cells and medium. It has a molecular size of 95,000-170,000, comprising a 65-kDa core protein and two to six 16-kDa heparan sulfate chains. Both the chondroitin sulfate and heparan sulfate proteoglycans also contain O-glycosidically linked oligosaccharides (25-28% of the total oligosaccharides) and predominantly tri- and tetraantennary N-glycosidic oligosaccharides. Proteoglycans produced by the original clone of PC12 cells were compared with those of two other PC12 cell lines (B2 and F3) that differ from the original clone in morphology, adhesive properties, and response to nerve growth factor. Although the F3 cells (a mutant line derived from B2 and reported to lack a cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan) do not contain a large molecular size heparan sulfate proteoglycan species, there was no significant difference between the B2 and F3 cells in the percentage of total heparan sulfate released by mild trypsinization, and both the B2 and F3 cells synthesized cell-associated and secreted chondroitin sulfate and heparan sulfate proteoglycans having properties very similar to those of the original PC12 cell line but with a reversed ratio (35:65) of chondroitin sulfate to heparan sulfate.  相似文献

The proteoglycans synthesized by fibroblasts derived from healthy human gingivae were isolated and characterized. The largest medium proteoglycan was excluded from Sepharose CL-4B but not from Sepharose CL-2B; it was recovered in the most-dense density gradient fraction and identified as a chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan. The medium contained two smaller proteoglycans; one contained predominantly chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan, while the other was comprised predominantly of dermatan sulfate proteoglycan and was quantitatively the major species. The largest proteoglycan in the cell layer fraction, excluded from both Sepharose CL-2B and Sepharose CL-4B, was found in the least-dense density gradient fraction and contained heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan. It could be further dissociated by treatment with detergent, suggesting an intimate association with cell membranes. Two other proteoglycan populations of intermediate size were identified in the cell layer extracts which contained variable proportions of heparan sulfate, dermatan sulfate, or chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan. Some small molecular weight material indicative of free glycosaminoglycan chains was also associated with the cell layer fraction. Carbohydrate analysis of the proteoglycans demonstrated the glycosaminoglycan chains to have approximate average molecular weights of 25,000. In addition, N- and O-linked oligosaccharides which were associated with the proteoglycans appeared to be sulfated in varying degrees.  相似文献

The proteoglycans secreted by a malignant human breast cell line (MDA-MB-231) were compared with the corresponding proteoglycans from a normal human breast cell line (HBL-100). The physicochemical characteristics of these proteoglycans were established by hexosamine analysis, chemical and enzymatic degradations, and dissociative cesium chloride density gradient centrifugation, and by gel filtration before and after alkaline beta-elimination. Both cell lines secreted approximately 70% of the synthesized proteoglycans, which were composed of 20% heparan sulfate and 80% chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans. The MDA cell line secreted large hydrodynamic size (major) and small hydrodynamic size heparan sulfate proteoglycan. In contrast HBL cells secreted only one species having a hydrodynamic size intermediate to the above two. The chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans from MDA medium were slightly larger than the corresponding polymers from HBL medium. All proteoglycans except the small hydrodynamic size heparan sulfate proteoglycan from MDA medium were of high buoyant density. The proteoglycans of both cell lines contained significant proportions of disulfide-linked lower molecular weight components which were more pronounced in the proteoheparan sulfate polymers, particularly those from MDA medium, than in chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans. The glycosaminoglycans of heparan sulfate proteoglycans from MDA medium were more heterogeneous than those from HBL medium. The glycosaminoglycan chains of large hydrodynamic size heparan sulfate proteoglycans from MDA medium were larger in size than those from HBL medium while small hydrodynamic size heparan sulfate proteoglycans contained shorter glycosaminoglycan chains. In contrast to the glycosaminoglycans derived from chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans of both MDA and HBL medium were comparable in size. The heparan sulfate as well as chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans of both cell lines contained both neutral (di- and tetrasaccharides) and sialylated (tri- to hexasaccharides) O-linked oligosaccharides.  相似文献

Two different forms of cell-associated [35S]-heparan sulfate proteoglycans were identified in prelabeled cultured cells, including glial cells, endothelial cells and fibroblasts. One of them migrated characteristically in the excluded volume fraction in Sepharose CL-2B chromatography and flotated in CsCl density gradient centrifugation. Further, it showed affinity for a hydrophobic gel, Octyl-Sepharose. The molecular size was markedly reduced and the density elevated by treatment with detergent or lipid solvents. These findings indicate an admixture of lipid in this proteoglycan and suggest a location for the molecule in the plasma membrane. This proteoglycan was found in all cell species examined. - The other type of heparan sulfate proteoglycan had a larger molecular size than most previously described heparan sulfate proteoglycans and had a buoyant density around 1.32 g/ml, probably due to an unusually high ratio of protein to carbohydrate. This heparan sulfate proteoglycan was found only in extracts of cells capable of forming a fibrillar extracellular matrix, but not in extracts of cells devoid of matrix. It was retained in cell-free preparations of extracellular matrix, indicating that it may be a specific product of this compartment.  相似文献

A rat hepatoma cell line was shown to synthesize heparan sulfate and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans. Unlike cultured hepatocytes, the hepatoma cells did not deposit these proteoglycans into an extracellular matrix, and most of the newly synthesized heparan sulfate proteoglycans were secreted into the culture medium. Heparan sulfate proteoglycans were also found associated with the cell surface. These proteoglycans could be solubilized by mild trypsin or detergent treatment of the cells but could not be displaced from the cells by incubation with heparin. The detergent-solubilized heparan sulfate proteoglycan had a hydrophobic segment that enabled it to bind to octyl- Sepharose. This segment could conceivably anchor the molecule in the lipid interior of the plasma membrane. The size of the hepatoma heparan sulfate proteoglycans was similar to that of proteoglycans isolated from rat liver microsomes or from primary cultures of rat hepatocytes. Ion-exchange chromatography on DEAE-Sephacel indicated that the hepatoma heparan sulfate proteoglycans had a lower average charge density than the rat liver heparan sulfate proteoglycans. The lower charge density of the hepatoma heparan sulfate can be largely attributed to a reduced number of N-sulfated glucosamine units in the polysaccharide chain compared with that of rat liver heparan sulfate. Hepatoma heparan sulfate proteoglycans purified from the culture medium had a considerably lower affinity for fibronectin-Sepharose compared with that of rat liver heparan sulfate proteoglycans. Furthermore, the hepatoma proteoglycan did not bind to the neoplastic cells, whereas heparan sulfate from normal rat liver bound to the hepatoma cells in a time-dependent reaction. The possible consequences of the reduced sulfation of the heparan sulfate proteoglycan produced by the hepatoma cells are discussed in terms of the postulated roles of heparan sulfate in the regulation of cell growth and extracellular matrix formation.  相似文献

The biologic properties of two major proteoglycans of bovine aorta, heparan sulfate proteoglycan and chondroitin sulfate-dermatan sulfate proteoglycan were compared. The heparan sulfate proteoglycan was isolated either by elastase digestion or by 4.0 M guanidine hydrochloride extraction, of aorta tissue, fractionated by CsCl isopycnic centrifugation and purified by chondroitinase ABC treatment. The first method resulted in considerably greater yield (about 70% of the total heparan sulfate proteoglycan of the tissue) than the second procedure (12% of total). The chondroitin sulfate-dermatan sulfate proteoglycan was obtained by 4.0 M guanidine-HCl extraction of aorta tissue followed by CsCl isopycnic centrifugation. The chemical composition of both heparan sulfate proteoglycan preparations was similar. Unlike the chondroitin sulfate-dermatan sulfate proteoglycan, which eluted in the void volume of Sepharose CL-6B column, the heparan sulfate proteoglycan preparations were each resolved into a high molecular weight fraction (kav = 0.18 and 0.13) and a low molecular weight fraction (kav = 0.47 and 0.36). The heparan sulfate proteoglycan preparations exhibited significantly more potent anticoagulant and platelet aggregation inhibitory activities than the chondroitin sulfate-dermatan sulfate proteoglycan. The protein core of the proteoglycan molecules did not seem to be essential for their hemostatic properties. The complex forming ability of the heparan sulfate proteoglycan with serum low density lipoproteins (LDL) was much less than that of chondroitin sulfate-dermatan sulfate proteoglycan in the presence and absence of Ca2+. Interaction between heparan sulfate proteoglycan and LDL was also much more sensitive to changes in the ionic strength of the medium than that of chondroitin sulfate-dermatan sulfate proteoglycan and the lipoprotein. Since the total sulfate content of both proteoglycans is almost similar, the smaller molecular size and hence the lower overall charge density of the heparan sulfate proteoglycan appears to be partly responsible for its low affinity for LDL. The differences in biologic properties of the two proteoglycans might have implications in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases.  相似文献

Evidence suggests that endothelial cell layer heparan sulfate proteoglycans include a variety of different sized molecules which most likely contain different protein cores. In the present report, approximately half of endothelial cell surface associated heparan sulfate proteoglycan is shown to be releasable with soluble heparin. The remaining cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan, as well as extracellular matrix heparan sulfate proteoglycan, cannot be removed from the cells with heparin. The heparin nonreleasable cell surface proteoglycan can be released by membrane disrupting agents and is able to intercalate into liposomes. When the heparin releasable and nonreleasable cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans are compared, differences in proteoglycan size are also evident. Furthermore, the intact heparin releasable heparan sulfate proteoglycan is closer in size to proteoglycans isolated from the extracellular matrix and from growth medium than to that which is heparin nonreleasable. These data indicate that cultured porcine aortic endothelial cells contain at least two distinct types of cell surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans, one of which appears to be associated with the cells through its glycosaminoglycan chains. The other (which is more tightly associated) is probably linked via a membrane intercalated protein core.Abbreviations ECM extracellular matrix - HSPG heparan sulfate proteoglycan - PAE porcine aortic endothelial - PBS phosphate buffered saline  相似文献

A short-term incubation system was used to study proteoglycan synthesis during the early stages of medullary bone formation in estrogen-treated male Japanese quail. The proteoglycans were separated by chromatography on a DEAE Bio-Gel A column eluted with a 400-ml 0-1 M NaCl gradient. The profile from uninjected control birds showed a single peak, whereas profiles from estrogen-treated birds showed development of another peak. Incorporation of [35S]sulfate into the estrogen-induced proteoglycan increased most dramatically between 25 and 37 h after hormone treatment. The estrogen-induced proteoglycan has a Kav = 0.65 on Sepharose CL-4B, an average buoyant density of 1.50 g/ml, and contains keratan sulfate as its constituent glycosaminoglycan. The second proteoglycan has a Kav = 0.52 on Sepharose CL-4B, an average buoyant density of greater than or equal to 1.7 g/ml, and has chondroitin sulfate as it major glycosaminoglycan. It may also contain some heparin or heparan sulfate. The results support the usefulness of the incubation system for studying the dynamics of bone matrix production.  相似文献
