Fecha de publicación: | 2020 | Editor: | American Chemical Society | Citación: | ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces 12: 25534- 25545 (2020) | Resumen: | Chitosan sulfates have demonstrated the ability to mimic heparan sulfate (HS) function. In this context, it is crucial to understand how the specific structural properties of HS domains determine their functionalities and biological activities. In this study, several HS-mimicking chitosans have been prepared to mimic the structure of HS domains that have proved to be functionally significant in cell processes. The results presented herein are in concordance with the hypothesis that sulfated chitosan-growth factor (GF) interactions are controlled by a combination of two effects: the electrostatic interactions and the conformational adaptation of the polysaccharide. Thus, we found that highly charged O-sulfated S-CS and S-DCS polysaccharides with a low degree of contraction interacted more strongly with GFs than N-sulfated N-DCS, with a higher degree of contraction and a low charge. Finally, the evidence gathered suggests that N-DCS would be able to bind to an allosteric zone and is likely to enhance GF signaling activity. This is because the bound protein remains able to bind to its cognate receptor, promoting an effect on cell proliferation as has been shown for PC12 cells. However, S-CS and S-DCS would sequester the protein, decreasing the GF signaling activity by depleting the protein or locally blocking its active site. | Versión del editor: | http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/acsami.0c03074 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/217773 | DOI: | 10.1021/acsami.0c03074 | Identificadores: | doi: 10.1021/acsami.0c03074 issn: 1944-8244 e-issn: 1944-8252 |
