Extracellular matrix (ECM) is a non-cellular three-dimensional macromolecular network
composed of collagens, proteoglycans/glycosaminoglycans, elastin, fibronectin, laminins …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) constitutes a highly dynamic three-dimensional structural
network comprised of macromolecules, such as proteoglycans/glycosaminoglycans …

We provide a comprehensive classification of the proteoglycan gene families and respective
protein cores. This updated nomenclature is based on three criteria: Cellular and subcellular …

The insulin receptor (IR) gene undergoes differential splicing that generates two IR isoforms,
IR-A and IR-B. The physiological roles of IR isoforms are incompletely understood and …

The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a complex network of proteins, glycoproteins,
proteoglycans, and polysaccharides. Through multiple interactions with each other and the …

Decorin, a prototype small leucine-rich proteoglycan, regulates a vast array of cellular
processes including collagen fibrillogenesis, wound repair, angiostasis, tumor growth, and …

Decorin is an extracellular matrix protein that belongs to the family of small leucine‐rich
proteoglycans. As a matrix protein, the first discovered role of decorin is participating in …

Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels from preexisting vessels, is a highly
complex process. It is regulated in a finely-tuned manner by numerous molecules including …

Proteoglycans control numerous normal and pathological processes, among which are
morphogenesis, tissue repair, inflammation, vascularization and cancer metastasis. During …

Decorin is a prototypical small leucine-rich proteoglycan that epitomizes the multifunctional
nature of this critical gene family. Soluble decorin engages multiple receptor tyrosine …
