Functional characterization of chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans of brain: interactions with neurons and neural cell adhesion molecules.

Abstract: Abstract. Ng-CAM and N-CAM are cell adhesion molecules (CAMs), and each CAM can bind homophilically as demonstrated by the ability of CAM-coated beads (Covaspheres) to self-aggregate. We have found that the extent of aggregation of Covaspheres coated with either Ng-CAM or N-CAM was strongly inhibited by the intact 1D1 and 3F8 chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans of rat brain, and by the core glycoproteins resulting from chondroitinase treatment of the proteoglycans. Much higher concentrations of rat chondrosarcom… Show more

“…For example, Chaudhry et al (2006) found that co-expression of L1 with nerve growth factor reduced CGRP-positive sprouting within the spinal cord, and that this reduction did not occur with other cell adhesion molecules. Furthermore, this finding (Chaudhry et al, 2006) is supported by the growth-cone collapsing interaction of L1 with neuropilin-1 and sema3A (Castellani et al, 2000) and the neurite growth inhibition due to interactions with the proteoglycans neurocan and phosphocan (Friedlander et al, 1994;Grumet et al, 1996). If L1 is playing a role in growth inhibition after rhizotomy, we would expect to see an increase in the CGRP-positive sprouting into the center of the denervated dorsal horn in the L1 mutant compared to wild-type mice.…”

“…17 Mechanisms by which astrocytes could dynamically modulate the entry of leukocytes into normal or injured CNS parenchyma in addition to, and perhaps independently of, their influence on the tight junctional complexes of the BBB include their ability to produce: (i) both pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines; 1,18 and (ii) extracellularly deposited molecules that positively and negatively influence the migration of many cell types and nerve fibers. [19][20][21] These findings suggest that dysfunction of astrocyte regulation of leukocyte trafficking in CNS parenchyma represents a novel potential pathogenic mechanism for inflammatory disturbances in the CNS.…”

“…In parallel, the chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans neurocan and phosphacan block the homophilic interaction of NgCAM and NCAM, resulting in a competitive inhibition of NgCAM-and NCAM-mediated neuron and glia cell adhesion and neurite outgrowth (61)(62)(63). However, phosphacan probably interferes with NgCAM-mediated neurite outgrowth by binding directly to the cell surface.…”
