Angiogenesis, the sprouting of new blood vessels from existing vasculature, involves multiple complex biological processes, and it is an essential step for hemostasis, tissue healing and regeneration. Angiogenesis stimulants can ameliorate human disease conditions including limb ischemia, chronic
Stroke causes life long disabilities where few therapeutic options are available. Using electrical and magnetic stimulation of the brain and physical rehabilitation, recovery of brain function can be enhanced even late after stroke. Animal models support this notion, and housing rodents in an
BACKGROUND
Glycosylation significantly affects protein structure and function and thus participates in multiple physiologic and pathologic processes. Studies demonstrated that immunoglobulin G (IgG) N-glycosylation associates with the risk factors of ischemic stroke (IS), such as aging, obesity,
BACKGROUND
Glycosylated proteins partake in multiple cellular processes including inflammation. We hypothesized that GlycA, a novel biomarker of protein glycan N-acetyl groups, is related to incident cardiovascular disease (CVD), and we compared it with high-sensitivity C-reactive protein
OBJECTIVE
Plasma protein
N-
glycan profiling integrates information on enzymatic protein glycosylation, which is a highly controlled ubiquitous posttranslational modification. Here we investigate the ability of the plasma
N-glycome to predict incidence of type 2
Glycomics is a new subspecialty in omics systems sciences that offers significant promise for next-generation biomarkers on disease susceptibility, drug target discovery, and precision medicine. In this context, alternative immunoglobulin G (IgG) N-glycosylation has been reportedly implicated
Acutobin isolated from Deinagkistrodon acutus venom has been used to prevent or treat stroke in patients. This defibrinogenating serine protease is a 39 kDa glycoprotein containing terminal disialyl-capped N-glycans. After sialidase treatment, the enzyme showed similar catalytic activities toward
Background: Post-stroke comorbid cognitive impairment and depression (PSCCID) is a severe neuropsychiatric complication after acute stroke. Gut microbiota dysbiosis is associated with many psychiatric disorders. Alterations in the
1. UK-279,276 or recombinant neutrophil inhibitory factor (rNIF) is a glycoprotein that has been investigated as an intravenous treatment for stroke. Previous data indicate that the asialoglycoprotein receptor (ASGPR) in the liver might have a role in the uptake and clearance of UK-279,276 from
BACKGROUND
Silent brain infarcts (SBIs) are highly prevalent in the aged population and relate to the occurrence of further stroke and dementia. Serum N-glycome levels have been previously associated with aging and they might be related as well to the presence of SBIs and age-related white matter
The molecular properties of alpha 1-acid glycoprotein are briefly discussed. This molecule has been shown in in vitro experiments to have both a stabilizing effect on vascular permeability and antiinflammatory properties. We were able to demonstrate these two effects in vivo in guinea pigs (skin,
Galacto-N-biose (GNB: Galβ1-3GalNAc) is an O-glycan disaccharide core moiety that is a core component of mucin in the gastrointestinal tract; however, the physiological properties of GNB are not well understood. Glutamate excitotoxicity causes neuronal death in acute neurological disorders including
CADASIL (Cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy) is a type of small-artery stroke and vascular dementia-inducing pathology of the brain. In order to explain the molecular mechanisms behind the alterations to the blood vessels in CADASIL subjects,
The receptor-type protein tyrosine phosphatase PTPσ mediates neural development and regeneration. Early studies on the ligands of PTPσ identified heparan sulfate proteolycan (HSPG) as a ligand. Binding of HSPG to PTPσ plays a critical role in axon guidance and synapse formation. PTPσ is also a
Acid-sensing ion channel-1a (ASIC1a), the primary proton receptor in the brain, contributes to multiple diseases including stroke, epilepsy and multiple sclerosis. Thus, a better understanding of its biogenesis will provide important insights into the regulation of ASIC1a in diseases. Interestingly,
