چکیده

Degradation of the cartilage proteoglycan aggrecan is a key early event in the development of osteoarthritis. Adamalysin with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTS) -4 and ADAMTS-5 are considered to be the main enzymes responsible for aggrecan breakdown, making them attractive drugs targets. Here we show that calcium pentosan polysulfate (CaPPS), a chemically sulfated xylanopyranose from beechwood, is a multifaceted exosite inhibitor of the aggrecanases and protects cartilage against aggrecan degradation. CaPPS interacts with the noncatalytic spacer domain of ADAMTS-4 and the cysteine-rich domain of ADAMTS-5, blocking activity against their natural substrate aggrecan with inhibitory concentration 50 values of 10-40 nM but only weakly inhibiting hydrolysis of a nonglycosylated recombinant protein substrate. In addition, CaPPS increased cartilage levels of tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-3 (TIMP-3), an endogenous inhibitor of ADAMTS-4 and -5. This was due to the ability of CaPPS to block endocytosis of TIMP-3 mediated by low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein. CaPPS also increased the affinity of TIMP-3 for ADAMTS-4 and -5 by more than 100-fold, improving the efficacy of TIMP-3 as an aggrecanase inhibitor. Studies with TIMP-3-null mouse cartilage indicated that CaPPS inhibition of aggrecan degradation is TIMP-3 dependent. These unique properties make CaPPS a prototypic disease-modifying agent for osteoarthritis.

[Inhibitory effect of sodium pentosan polysulfate on the formation, growth and aggregation of calcium oxalate in vitro].

The inhibitory effects of sodium pentosan polysulfate (SPP) on the formation, growth and aggregation of calcium oxalate (CaOx) crystals were estimated by means of a Coulter counter TA II by the seed crystal method, whole urine method and infrared spectroscopic method. In the seeded crystal system, the inhibitory activities on aggregation (Ia), growth (Ig) and size (Is) were calculated from the ...

Pentosan polysulfate increases affinity between ADAMTS-5 and TIMP-3 through formation of an electrostatically driven trimolecular complex

The semi-synthetic sulfated polysaccharide PPS (pentosan polysulfate) increases affinity between the aggrecan-degrading ADAMTSs (adamalysins with thrombospondin motifs) and their endogenous inhibitor, TIMP (tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases)-3. In the present study we demonstrate that PPS mediates the formation of a high-affinity trimolecular complex with ADAMTS-5 and TIMP-3. A TIMP-3 muta...

The role of pentosan polysulfate in treatment approaches for interstitial cystitis.

Studies of the mechanisms and causes of interstitial cystitis (IC) and of the properties of pentosan polysulfate have provided a scientific rationale for using pentosan polysulfate to treat IC. In randomized, double-blind studies, patient and investigator evaluations of pentosan polysulfate in the treatment of IC resulted in favorable assessments of the drug. In addition, IC patients in two out...

Pentosan Polysulfate Decreases Myocardial Expression of the Extracellular Matrix Enzyme ADAMTS4 and Improves Cardiac Function In Vivo in Rats Subjected to Pressure Overload by Aortic Banding

BACKGROUND We hypothesized that cleavage of the extracellular matrix (ECM) proteoglycans versican and aggrecan by ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloprotease with thrombospondin motifs) proteases, which contributes to stress-induced ECM-reorganization in atherogenesis and osteoarthritis, also play a role in heart failure development. OBJECTIVES The primary objective was to identify alterations ...

Intravesical instillation of pentosan polysulfate encapsulated in a liposome nanocarrier for interstitial cystitis.

We determined the effect of intravesical instillation of pentosan polysulfate encapsulated in liposomes for refractory interstitial cystitis patients. This was an open label uncontrolled study. Subjects were recruited from a private urology practice. Inclusion criteria included patients who met NIDDK criteria for Interstitial Cystitis (IC) and who were responding poorly to conventional treatmen...
