Key roles for the small leucine-rich proteoglycans in renal and pulmonary pathophysiology

Abstract: Background Small leucine-rich proteoglycans (SLRPs) are molecules that have signaling roles in a multitude of biological processes. In this respect, SLRPs play key roles in the evolution of a variety of diseases throughout the human body. Scope of Review We will critically review current developments in the roles of SLRPs in several types of disease of the kidney and lungs. Particular emphasis will be given to the roles of decorin and biglycan, the best characterized members of the SLRP gene family. Major … Show more

“…Furthermore, it is also of interest that the SLRPs may also regulate collagen turnover because several SLRPs bind and regulate the strong inducer of matrix formation, transforming growth factor-β, hereby possessing antifibrotic properties. 20,21 In contrast to the observed regulation of the collagen fibrilassociated proteoglycans, none of the abundant fibrillar collagens (I, III, and V), 22 which all were present in our data set, were regulated.…”

“…Selected examples include kidney fibrosis,59 Marfan syndrome60 or epidermolysis bullosa 61. Decorin and other SLRPs are important in this context 62. Unlike in fibrotic diseases, TGFβ sequestration by decorin, as shown here, may have detrimental consequences in the development OA.…”

“…Interestingly, instead of being a canonical DAMP, lumican, a keratan sulfate member of the SLRP family, acts as a helper of PAMP via binding to and presenting LPS to the TLR adaptor CD14 (19). For further details regarding the mechanism of SLRP release and their use as biomarkers in inflammation, please refer to recent more specific reviews (5,7,13,20,21).…”
