Disease relevance of SDC3

 

High impact information on SDC3

 

Biological context of SDC3

  • Additionally, transient transfection experiments suggest a role of human syndecan-3 in the organization of cell shape by affecting the actin cytoskeleton, possibly by transferring signals from the cell surface in a sugar-dependent mechanism [6].
  • The similarity of the cloned DNA sequence with that of other mammalian species and the high expression in the nervous system led us to the assumption that human syndecan-3 could perform comparable functions to those described for syndecan-3 in rat and mouse [6].
  • Next, all three nonsynonymous SNPs [T271I (rs2282440, C>T), D245N (rs4949184, C>T), and V150I (rs2491132, C>T)] in the SDC3 gene in control female subjects (BMI < 23, n = 229) and obese female subjects (BMI > 30, n = 245) were genotyped [2].
  • We found that the topographical location of proliferating chondrocytes in developing chick long bones changes with increasing embryonic age and that syndecan-3 gene expression changes in a comparable manner [7].
  • These results indicate that syndecan-3 interferes with the interaction of BMP2 with its receptors, and that this interference results in an inhibition of chondrogenesis [8].
 

Anatomical context of SDC3

  • In addition, RT-PCR showed the presence of syndecan-3 messenger RNA in endothelial cells extracted from RA and nonrheumatoid synovia [5].
  • When different cell lines were transiently transfected with full-length syndecan-3 cDNA, it was localized to the membrane and induced the formation of long filopodia-like structures, microspikes, and varicosities [6].
  • Consequently, the actin cytoskeleton was re-organized, since actin staining was mostly found in the cellular extensions and at the cell periphery, co-localizing with the syndecan-3 staining [6].
  • Syndecan-3 mRNA is mostly expressed in the nervous system, the adrenal gland, and the spleen [6].
  • Syndecan-3 is a selective regulator of chondrocyte proliferation [7].

Other interactions of SDC3

  • Syndecan-3 and perlecan expression in tumours was found in an expected distribution pattern [14].
  • Double-staining techniques showed that heparan sulfate was found predominantly at the basal aspect of the endothelium and suggested that syndecan-3 might function as one of the proteoglycans involved in FGF-2 signaling in the endothelium [15].
  • The syndecan-3 antibodies interfered only with FGF-2 mitogenic action, but not that of insulin-like growth factor-1 or parathyroid hormone [7].
  • In addition, we observed different localization of epitope-tagged glypican-2 and syndecan-3 on the surface of N2a cells; the result suggested that they may play different roles in MK-mediated neural function [12].
  • These syndecan-3-rich proliferating chondrocytes lay beneath developing articular chondrocytes rich in their typical matrix protein tenascin-C, resulting in a striking boundary between these two populations of chondrocytes [10].
