Nonlysosomal processing of cell-surface heparan sulfate proteoglycans. Studies of I-cells and NH4Cl-treated normal cells.
The metabolism of cell-associated proteoglycans, labeled in the glycosaminoglycan portion with 35SO2-4, was studied in normal skin fibroblasts (SL66 cells), NH4Cl-treated SL66 fibroblasts, and in I-cells derived from patients with mucolipidosis II. Kinetic data from label-chase experiments and gel filtration analysis of the molecular weight distribution of the radiolabeled glycosaminoglycans in...
متن کاملEndocytosis of sulphated proteoglycans by cultured skin fibroblasts.
1. Human skin fibroblasts internalize homologous sulphated proteoglycans by adsorptive endocytosis. Endocytosis rate is half maximal when the concentration of the proteoglycans is 0.1 nM. At saturation, a single fibroblast may endocytose up to 8 X 10(6) proteoglycan molecules/h. 2. The kinetics of prote;glycan binding to the cell surface suggest the presence of 6 X 10(5) high-affinity binding s...
متن کاملProteoglycan synthesis in normal and Lowe syndrome fibroblasts.
Lowe (oculocerebrorenal) syndrome (LS) is an X-linked disorder characterized by congenital cataracts, generalized hypotonia, mental retardation, and renal Fanconi syndrome. The basic defect remains unknown, but the possibility that fibroblasts express reduced sulfation of glycosaminoglycans has been studied in several laboratories. A mechanism involving overproduction of an enzyme (nucleotide p...
متن کاملProduction of proteoglycans by human lung fibroblasts (IMR-90) maintained in a low concentration of serum.
Maintenance of fibroblasts in 0.5% serum results in viable but non-proliferative cells that may be analogous to fibroblasts in vivo. The synthesis of proteoglycans by human embryo lung fibroblasts in Eagle's minimal essential medium with 0.5% newborn-bovine serum or with 10% serum has been compared. A similar amount of [35S]sulphate-labelled glycosaminoglycan per cell was secreted by fibroblast...
متن کاملGlycosaminoglycans and Proteoglycans
In this editorial to MDPI Pharmaceuticals special issue "Glycosaminoglycans and Proteoglycans" we describe in outline the common structural features of glycosaminoglycans and the characteristics of proteoglycans, including the intracellular proteoglycan, serglycin, cell-surface proteoglycans, like syndecans and glypicans, and the extracellular matrix proteoglycans, like aggrecan, perlecan, and ...
