| 1 | 11259366 | Biglycan was expressed by glomerular endothelial cells and, together with fibromodulin, by distal tubular cells and in collecting ducts. |
| 2 | 21084753 | Here, we have shown that the proteoglycan biglycan triggers CXCL13 expression via TLR2/4 in macrophages and dendritic cells. |
| 3 | 21084753 | Importantly, biglycan also triggered CXCL13 expression and B cell infiltration in the healthy kidney. |
| 4 | 21084753 | Collectively, our results describe what we believe to be a novel mechanism for the regulation of CXCL13 by biglycan, a host-derived ligand for TLR2/4. |
| 5 | 18348167 | By affinity coelectrophoresis (ACE), we found reduced affinities of heparin and KSPGs for glycated but not normal collagen, whereas the dermatan sulfate (DS)PGs decorin and biglycan bound similarly to both, and that the affinity of heparin for normal collagen decreased with increasing pH. |
