Congenital Disorders of Deficiency in Glycosaminoglycan Biosynthesis

Abstract: Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) including chondroitin sulfate, dermatan sulfate, and heparan sulfate are covalently attached to specific core proteins to form proteoglycans, which are distributed at the cell surface as well as in the extracellular matrix. Proteoglycans and GAGs have been demonstrated to exhibit a variety of physiological functions such as construction of the extracellular matrix, tissue development, and cell signaling through interactions with extracellular matrix components, morphogens, cytokines, … Show more

“…The irregular expression of CS or GAGs causes many diseases, including tumors, viral infections, skeletal disorders, skeletal dysplasia, chondrodysplasia, multiple exostoses, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, heart and kidney defects, immune deficiencies, glial scar (form after brain injury), and neurological abnormalities [ 71 ]. Therefore, it is expected that if CS expression can retain or reverse, it would affect the progress of respective diseases.…”

“…4 ). Interestingly, defects in GAG biosynthesis usually portray clinical features in bone or cartilage, ligaments, or subepithelial layers ( 158 ). For example, dysregulation of HS chain polymerization is a key feature in multiple hereditary exostoses (MHE), an autosomal dominant skeletal disorder hallmarked by the formation of benign cartilage-capped tumors.…”

“…Homozygous mutations in XYLT2 cause spondyloocular syndrome, which exhibits skeletal defects, as well as ocular, cardiac, auditory system defects, and learning difficulties in patients with this disorder (Munns et al, 2015;Taylan et al, 2016;Taylan et al, 2017;Umair et al, 2018). The different clinical manifestations of XYLT1 and XYLT2 disorders, suggest potential functional distinctions between the two enzymes including: use of distinct core protein substrates, differential spatiotemporal expression, and inability to compensate for each other (Mizumoto and Yamada, 2021). These fascinating issues, as well as how signaling pathways are affected as a consequence of these XYLT mutations that lead to the devastating phenotypes, remain unexplored in these human hereditary disorders.…”
