Urinary excretion of glycosaminoglycans and albumin in experimental diabetes mellitus
(Oxford Univ Press, 2000-02-01)
Diabetes mellitus was induced in one group of rats by a single injection of streptozotocin. the glycemia, the body weight, and the blood systolic pressure were measured every week, and the 24 h urine volume and urinary ...
Glycosaminoglycans in components of the rabbit eye: synthesis and characterization
(Swets Zeitlinger Publishers, 1999-08-01)
Purpose. To trace the eye components involved in proteoglycan synthesis and to characterize the sulfated glycosaminoglycans which are associated to these macromolecules.Methods. Sodium [S-35]-sulfate was injected intravitreally ...
Adapted colorimetric method for measurement of feline urinary glycosaminoglycans
(2012-10-01)
Several methods have been employed to quantify urinary glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), such as chromatography associated with electrophoresis and colorimetric methods, cheaper and faster ones, which employ mainly azure A and ...

Objective: To evaluate and compare the behavior of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) in Dupuytren disease (DD). Methods: This is an experimental study with 23 patients diagnosed with DD. Tissue collected through fasciectomy with ...
Proteinase activity regulation by glycosaminoglycans
(Associação Brasileira de Divulgação Científica, 2002-02-01)
There are few reports concerning the biological role and the mechanisms of interaction between proteinases and carbohydrates other than those involved in clotting. It has been shown that the interplay of enzymes and ...
Effect of different glycosaminoglycans in a guinea-pig carotid-artery thrombosis model
(Elsevier B.V., 1994-09-15)
Heparin is the most frequently used drug for the prevention and treatment of thrombosis. Its use, however, is restricted by its side-effects. To study the efficacy of other glycosaminoglycans that could substitute heparin ...
Urinary excretion of glycosaminoglycans in horses: Changes with age, training, and osteoarthritis
(Elsevier B.V., 2005-09-01)
The aim of the current study was to investigate if the urinary glycosaminoglycans reflect the changes that occur in cartilages with age, training, and osteoarthritis in horses. the glycosaminoglycans were extracted by ion ...
Proteoglycans and glycosaminoglycans synthesized in vitro by mesangial cells from normal and diabetic rats
(Elsevier B.V., 1996-05-21)
In the renal glomerulus, two extracellular matrices have been identified, the glomerular basement membrane and the mesangial matrix. Accumulation of glomerular extracellular matrix is a conspicuous feature of most forms ...
