They are also of interest as a means of influencing biochemical processes. One member of the GAG family, heparin, is exploited globally as a major anticoagulant pharmaceutical and there is a growing interest in the potential of other GAGs for diverse applications ranging from skin care to the treatment of neurodegenerative conditions, and from the treatment and prevention of microbial infection to biotechnology. To realize the potential of GAGs, however, it is necessary to develop effective tools that are able to exploit the chemical manipulations to which GAGs are susceptible. Here, the current Citation: Palhares, L.C.G.F.; knowledge concerning the chemical modification of GAGs, one of the principal approaches for London, J.A.; Kozlowski, A.M.; the study of the structure-function relationships in these molecules, is reviewed.

In iations. this review, we address chemical methods for the modification of GAG polysaccharides, concentrating largely on modifications within the polysaccharide chain that result in naturally-occurring residues being produced, albeit in potentially unnatural sequences, rather than modifying the structure through the addition of new chemical groups.

This method employs liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry to rapidly quantify chitin-derived glucosamine for estimating fungal biomass. Analyte retention was achieved using hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography, with a zwitter- ionic stationary phase (ZIC-HILIC), and isocratic elution using 60% 5 mM ammonium formate buffer (pH 3.0) and 40% ACN. Inclusion of muramic acid and its chromatographic separation from glucosamine enabled calculation of the bacterial contribution to the latter. Galactosamine, an isobaric isomer to glucosamine, found in significant amounts in soil samples, was also investigated.

Instead, glucosamine and galactosamine were distinguished mathematically, using the linear relationships describing the differences in product ion intensities for the two analytes.

This study was conducted to test whether amino sugars and muramic acid are suitable biomarkers to trace bacterial, fungal, and actinomycetal residues in soil. For this aim, we investigated the pattern, amounts, and dynamics of three amino sugars (glucosamine, mannosamine and galactosamine) and muramic acid in the total microbial biomass and selectively cultivated bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes offive different soils amended with and without glucose. Our results revealed that total amino sugar and muramic acid concentrations in microbial biomass, extracted from soil after chloroform fumigation varied between 1 and 27 mg kg21 soil. In all soils investigated, glucose addition resulted in a 50–360% increase of these values. In reference to soil microbial biomass-C, the total amino sugar- and muramic acid-C concentrations ranged from 1–71 g C kg21 biomass-C. After an initial lag phase, the cultivated microbes revealed similar amino sugar concentrations of about 35, 27 and 17 g glucosamine-C kg21 TOC in bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes, respectively.

Matrix Protection Therapy in Diabetic Foot Ulcers: Pilot Study of CACIPLIQ20® Abstract We evaluated whether matrix protection therapy by CACIPLIQ20® promotes healing of chronic lower extremity wounds in diabetic patients. Ten diabetic patients with non-infected chronic skin wounds and with no evidence of healing were inclu- ded. CACIPLIQ20® was applied topically twice a week for 5 minutes for up to 10 weeks. Wound surface area was measured at baseline then weekly during treatment. Wound closure, defined as complete reepithelialization, was the primary end- point. Mean wound surface area decreased by 25% within the first week (p=0.021 vs. baseline) and by 47% after 4 weeks (p=0.001 vs. baseline). After 10 weeks, the wound was closed in 6 of the 10 patients and decreased over 80% in the other patients. Subsequently, the none healed patients returned to standard care. Six months later, complete wound healing was noted in one additional patient and no further change in the remaining 3 patients. Two patients were again treated with CACI- PLIQ20® for one month: one healed, the other improved again by 50%. Nine months later, closed ulcers did not re-open.

GAGs are heterogeneous, conformationally complex, and polydisperse, containing up to 200 monosaccharide units. These complexities make studying GAG conformation a challenge for existing experimental and computational methods. We previously described an algorithm we developed that applies conformational parameters (i.e., all bond lengths, bond angles, and dihedral angles) from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of nonsulfated chondroitin GAG 20-mers to construct 3-D atomic-resolution models of nonsulfated chondroitin GAGs of arbitrary length. In the current study, we applied our algorithm to other GAGs, including hyaluronan and nonsulfated forms of

Biol. 2016, 23: 108-121. doi: 10.1016/j.chembiol.2015. 12.007. Review article. 2 1.1 Glycosaminoglycan Structures and Biosynthesis Carbohydrates are generally thought of as a fuel source for life. However, these molecules also function in many other roles necessary for survival including development, angiogenesis, and neuronal growth.1-5 In particular, carbohydrates at the cell surface can strongly regulate signal transduction and cellular activity. This feat is achieved in large part through their structural diversity, which allows them to selectively bind to a variety of different proteins and in turn modulate their functions. Unsurprisingly, the dysregulation of cell-surface carbohydrate production and presentation can contribute to a variety of diseases including inflammation and cancer progression.6, 7 Therefore, discovering relationships between the chemical structures of carbohydrates, the proteins to which they bind, and the resulting biological functions is critical both for the basic understanding of many physiological processes and for the prevention and treatment of various pathologies. Cell-surface carbohydrates exist in a variety of forms and are classified based on their overall size, membrane anchor, monosaccharide composition, glycosidic connections, and further modifications of the monosaccharide

When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image, fou will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning” the material.

Xanthan gum is a high molecular weight polysaccharide biocompatible to biological systems, so its products promise high potential in medicine. In this study, we crosslinked xanthan gum with citric acid to develop a transparent film for protecting the wound. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are incorporated into the film to enhance the antimicrobial property of our biomaterial. This paper discussed the characteristics and manufacturing of this nanocomposite dressing. The safety of the dressing was studied using fibroblasts (L929) by the method of 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and staining of ethidium homodimer (PI) and calcein AM.
