Abstract
Heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs) are part of proteoglycan family. They are composed of heparan sulfate (HS)-type glycosaminoglycan (GAG) chains covalently linked to a core protein. By interacting with growth factors and/or receptors, they regulate numerous pathways including Wnt, hedgehog (Hh), bone morphogenic protein (BMP) and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) pathways. They act as inhibitor or activator of these pathways to modulate embryonic and adult stem cell fate during organ morphogenesis, regeneration and homeostasis. This review summarizes the knowledge on HSPG structure and classification and explores several signaling pathways regulated by HSPGs in stem cell fate. A specific focus on hair follicle stem cell fate and the possibility to target HSPGs in order to tackle hair loss are discussed in more dermatological and cosmeceutical perspectives.
期刊介绍:
Regenerative Medicine, an innovative online-only journal, aims to advance research in the field of repairing and regenerating damaged tissues and organs within the human body. As a part of the prestigious Nature Partner Journals series and in partnership with ARMI, this high-quality, open access journal serves as a platform for scientists to explore effective therapies that harness the body's natural regenerative capabilities. With a focus on understanding the fundamental mechanisms of tissue damage and regeneration, npj Regenerative Medicine actively encourages studies that bridge the gap between basic research and clinical tissue repair strategies.
