General description
Proteoglycans are made up of a core protein to which glycosaminoglycan chains are linked covalently. They are present in many organs, and tissues and found abundantly in the vertebrate cartilage matrix. Proteoglycans are located in the extracellular and pericellular matrix of many cells.
Application
Proteoglycan from bovine nasal septum contains 86% chondroitin sulfate and so has been used to study the effects of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan in vitro. It has been shown to promote survival of neural stem cells in culture.
Proteoglycan from bovine nasal septum has been used in the induction of arthritis in mice.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Proteoglycans are involved in tissue organization and promote cell growth and specialized tissue maturation. They act as biological filters and regulate collagen fibrillogenesis, skin tensile strength, and neurite growth. Proteoglycans are also involved in modulating growth-factor activities, affecting tumor cell growth and invasion, and promoting corneal transparency.
Preparation Note
Chromatographically purified using 7M urea on DEAE-cellulose by modified procedure by Antonopoulos.

Understanding how autocrine/paracrine factors regulate neural stem cell (NSC) survival and growth is fundamental to the utilization of these cells for therapeutic applications and as cellular models for the brain. In vitro, NSCs can be propagated along with neural progenitors

We have shown that Raman microspectroscopy is a powerful method for visualization of glycocalyx offering cellular interrogation without staining, unprecedented spatial and spectral resolution, and biochemical information. We showed for the first time that Raman imaging can be used to
