Elongated dermatan sulphate in post-inflammatory healing skin distributes among collagen fibrils separated by enlarged interfibrillar gaps

Open access

Abstract

It has been reported that the disaccharide composition of dermatan sulphate shows transient changes after epicutaneous application of the hapten 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene to mouse skin, and that these changes are most conspicuous in healing skin on day 15 after chemical insult [Kuwaba, Nomura, Irie and Koyama (1999) J. Dermatol. Sci. 19, 23–30]. In the present study it was found that the molecular size of dermatan sulphate was increased on day 15 after hapten application. The molecular size of decorin increased in healing skin, whereas the size of dermatan-sulphate-depleted core protein did not increase. The length and localization of decorin dermatan sulphate were investigated by electron microscopy. Dermatan sulphate filaments oriented orthogonally to collagen fibrils were longer in healing skin than in control skin. In control skin, dermatan sulphate filaments were found among tightly packed collagen fibrils. In contrast, the interfibrillar gaps between each collagen fibril were enlarged in healing skin; elongated dermatan sulphate filaments extended from the surface of collagen fibrils across the enlarged gap. These results suggest that the increase in molecular size of decorin dermatan sulphate is important in organizing collagen fibrils separated by enlarged interfibrillar gaps in healing skin.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
