Abstract Purpose of the Study: Protein tyrosine phosphatase σ (PTPσ) acts as a neuronal receptor for chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs). CSPGs have inhibitory effects on experience-dependent plasticity and usually form lattice-like cell coatings that surround the parvalbumin (PV) interneurons

The lectin binding pattern of muscular microvessels in chick, quail and chick/quail chimeras was analysed. Paraffin wax sections of muscles from embryonic and adult animals were used. The biotin-labelled lectins were detected by avidin-alkaline phosphatase complex. The following lectins bound to

Perineuronal nets (PNNs) are extracellular matrix structures consisting of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans (CSPGs), hyaluronan, link proteins and tenascin-R (Tn-R). They enwrap a subset of GABAergic inhibitory interneurons in the cerebral cortex and restrict experience-dependent cortical

Objective We aimed to examine the dynamics of serum Wisteria floribunda agglutinin-positive human MAC-2-binding protein glycosylation isomer (M2BPGi) in patients with acute liver injury. Methods Serum M2BPGi levels at the time of the diagnosis (n=77) and normalization of the serum alanine
