Non-uniform influence of transforming growth factor-β on the biosynthesis of different forms of small chondroitin sulphate/dermatan sulphate proteoglycan

Abstract: The influence of transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) on the expression of different forms of small proteoglycans was investigated in human skin fibroblasts and in a human osteosarcoma cell line. TGF-beta was not found to act as a general stimulator of small proteoglycan biosynthesis. In both cell types, an increased expression of the core protein of proteoglycan I was found. However, there was a profound decrease in the expression of a 106 kDa core protein, and either no alteration or a small decrease i… Show more

“…In MG-63 osteosarcoma cells TGF-fl causes an up-regulation of biglycan, a marked down-regulation of PG-100 and a minor reduction ofdecorin synthesis [9]. Inactivation of TGF-fl by decorin would therefore be expected to interfere with opposite effects on proteoglycan biosynthesis.…”

“…Fibroblast-populated collagen lattices were prepared [19] with bovine serum albumin (BSA) in place of serum [9]. Before metabolic labeling, MG-63 cells were preincubated for 20 h with the indicated quantities of TGF-fl and/or decorin in serum-free MEM medium containing 1% BSA.…”

“…The physiological regulation of decorin synthesis in different cell types is still a matter of discussion, as the same cytokine can have opposite effects on decorin synthesis; TGF-␤ has been shown to up-regulate decorin in mesangial cells but to downregulate the proteoglycan in most other cell types (8,9). Besides TGF-␤, several other cytokines have been implicated in the regulation of decorin synthesis on a transcriptional as well as on a translational or posttranslational level (IL-1, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-␣, TGF-␣, epidermal growth factor, etc.…”
