Collagen Remodelling

The human placenta and decidua are intrauterine production sites for a range of polypeptide hormones. Relaxin is one of these hormones, its production having been demonstrated by immunocytochemistry and Northern analysis. There are two relaxin genes in the human genome, termed H1 and H2; only the latter is expressed in cyclic and pregnant corpus luteum. However, it has recently been shown that both genes are expressed in the decidua and placenta. It is not known whether both are translated. These hormone(s) may act in a paracrine fashion and be partly responsible for the control of enzymes and inhibitors involved in collagen remodelling in the fetal membranes in the last weeks of pregnancy. An autocrine role of decidual relaxin and a possible decidual-cell/macrophage/extracellular-matrix interaction is described; this may act as a unit in the elaboration of a range of hormones.

Gag Protein

The six mammalian glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, heparin, heparan sulfate, hyaluronan, and keratan sulfate, are linear polysaccharides. Except for hyaluronan, they are sulfated to various extent, and covalently attached to proteins to form proteoglycans. GAGs interact with growth factors, morphogens, chemokines, extracellular matrix proteins and their bioactive fragments, receptors, lipoproteins, and pathogens. These interactions mediate their functions, from embryonic development to extracellular matrix assembly and regulation of cell signaling in various physiological and pathological contexts such as angiogenesis, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and infections. We give an overview of GAG–protein interactions (i.e., specificity and chemical features of GAG- and protein-binding sequences), and review the available GAG–protein interaction networks. We also provide the first comprehensive draft of the GAG interactome composed of 832 biomolecules (827 proteins and five GAGs) and 932 protein–GAG interactions. This network is a scaffold, which in the future should integrate structures of GAG–protein complexes, quantitative data of the abundance of GAGs in tissues to build tissue-specific interactomes, and GAG interactions with metal ions such as calcium, which plays a major role in the assembly of the extracellular matrix and its interactions with cells. This contextualized interactome will be useful to identify druggable GAG–protein interactions for therapeutic purpose:

Stimulation Of

Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) plays an important role in the regulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition by stimulating the synthesis of individual matrix proteins like tenascin and fibronectin. Cholesteatoma shows significant changes in the ECM, supporting the view of adisturbed cell-matrix interaction. The purpose of our present study was to evaluate the distribution of TGF-β in comparison to the deposition of tenascin, fibronectin, and collagen as major components of the ECM in cholesteatoma (n = 12) by means of histochemistry and immunohistochemistry. We found TGF-P in lymphocytes and fibrohistiocytes in the stroma of 7 cholesteatomas. In corresponding sections, a marked expression of tenascin and fibronectin was seen manifesting as a continuous band along the epidermal-stromal junction, extending to the deeper stroma. In addition, in those cases of TGF-β expression, beginning collagen fibril formation was seen in adjacent deeper stroma layers, indicating beginning stromal fibrosis. These results suggest that TGF-β may be involved in the stimulation of the synthesis of tenascin, fibronectin, and collagen. Furthermore, the enhanced expression of tenascin and fibronectin provides evidence for a deregulated cell-matrix interaction in cholesteatoma associated with the enhanced proliferative process of cholesteatoma formation.
