Altered proteoglycans in cultured human retinitis pigmentosa retinal pigment epithelium.
    Investigative ophthalmology & visual science, 1988, Volume: 29, Issue:5

    Proteoglycans are involved in a variety of cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. These include cell adhesion, growth regulation and a number of developmental processes. Their involvement in such interactions may be of particular importance in retinitis pigmentosa (RP) because of the detachment and migration of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells often associated with this condition. Because of these important functions in cell behavior, we have been studying the proteoglycans produced by human RPE and how these may be altered in RP. Confluent cultures of RPE from normal donors and from two donors with dominantly inherited RP were labeled with 3H-glucosamine and 35SO4 and the proteoglycans isolated from the medium, substratum and two cell membrane-associated compartments, designated "EDTA-released" and "cell-associated." The proteoglycans were analyzed for size distribution by Sepharose CL-4B chromatography and for glycosaminoglycan (GAG) composition based on enzymatic and chemical susceptibilities. Differences in size distribution and GAG composition were found between the two cell-associated compartments on normal cells. Retinitis pigmentosa proteoglycans differed from their normal counterparts in corresponding compartments both in size distribution and GAG composition. Most affected were those proteoglycans released from the cell surface by EDTA. These findings may be of importance in retinitis pigmentosa since alterations in these molecules could influence the way RPE cells interact with their microenvironment.

Chemical definition of the mucopolysaccharidoses.
    Clinica chimica acta; international journal of clinical chemistry, 1975, Mar-24, Volume: 59, Issue:3

    Glycosaminoglycans were isolated from the urines of 46 patients with mucopolysaccharidosis; 11 with Type I (Hurler), 8 with Type II (Hunter), 16 with Type III (Sanfilippo A and B), 9 with Type V (Scheie), one with Type VI (Marateaux-Lamy), and one unclassified. All 46 patients excreted in their urine excessive amounts of dermatan sulfate, heparan sulfate or both. In addition, patients of certain types excreted excessive amounts of chondroitin sulfates A and/or C. There is a trend in each type of the disease towards the same carbazole/orcinol ratio, glucosamine/galactosamine ratio and glycosaminoglycan composition. Molecular weight distribution of the urinary glycosaminoglycans by gel filtration from Sephadex G-200 is characteristic for each different type of mucopolysaccharidosis and is distinguished from normal controls and patients without mucopolysaccharidosis. Preparation of elution diagrams from Sephadex G-200 allows an estimation of the composition of the glycosamino-glycans. Practically all heparan sulfate and a sizable part of dermatan sulfate from the urinary glycosaminoglycans of all these patients have been highly degraded. In all the patients in which the specific enzyme defect was demonstrated, the assignment of the type of mucopolysaccharidosis, on the basis of the elution diagrams, was correct. Patients with mucopolysaccharidosis Type V displayed two conspicuously different types of elution patterns, suggesting heterogeneity. Indeed, only a portion of these patients showed alpha-L- iduronidase deficiency. Carriers had normal urinary glycosaminoglycan output and composition and exhibited normal elution diagrams.

Simulation of genetic mucopolysaccharidoses in normal human fibroblasts by alteration of pH of the medium.
    Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1972, Volume: 69, Issue:9

    Catabolism of sulfated mucopolysaccharide by normal human fibroblasts in culture is progressively inhibited as the pH of the growth medium is raised from 6.8 to 8.0. The final cell density increases with the change in pH. The capacity to degrade mucopolysaccharide is rapidly restored by lowering the pH, and this reactivation does not require protein synthesis. Such pH dependence is not observed in cells from patients with genetic impairment of mucopolysaccharide degradation, such as the Hurler or Hunter syndromes. These results may have relevance not only to studies of mucopolysaccharide metabolism in cell culture, but also to the use of metachromasia as a genetic marker and to the observation that normal fibroblasts are released from contact inhibition of growth as the pH of the growth medium is raised.

Hurler's, Hunter's and Morquio's syndromes. A biochemical study in the light of current views of the underlying defects.
    The Biochemical journal, 1971, Volume: 123, Issue:5

    Glycosaminoglycans were isolated from the urine of three patients with Hurler's, Hunter's and Morquio's syndromes and also from the liver and spleen of the case of Hurler's syndrome by a procedure avoiding further degradation. A method of determining the proportions of dermatan sulphate, heparan sulphate and chondroitin sulphate in each preparation is described. The relative proportions of these glycosaminoglycans in the urine and organs of the case of Hurler's syndrome were very similar. Glycosaminoglycans from the organs were of much lower molecular weight than normal, consisting of single chains of molecular weight about 5000 together with multiples of up to four such chains attached to peptide moieties. The linkage region normally attaching glycosaminoglycan chains to protein in whole protein-polysaccharides of connective tissue was degraded progressively towards serine. The total output and relative proportions of abnormal glycosaminoglycans in the urine were compared in two brothers with Hunter's syndrome examined on two occasions 4 years apart. At comparable ages they excreted about the same amount, and the relative proportions of each glycosaminoglycan remained essentially constant. The composition and chromatographic behaviour of the glycosaminoglycan in the urine from the case of Morquio's syndrome indicated that it consisted of material containing about one-third keratan sulphate and two-thirds chondroitin sulphate as part of the same molecule, as in proteoglycans of cartilage. The total output of glycosaminoglycans, although higher than normal, was considerably less than in other types of Mucopolysaccharidoses.
