Dermatan sulfate

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jump to: navigation, search

Dermatan sulfate is a glycosaminoglycan (formerly called a mucopolysaccharide) found mostly in skin, but also in blood vessels, heart valves, tendons, and lungs. Dermatan sulfate may have roles in coagulation, cardiovascular disease, carcinogenesis, infection, wound repair, and fibrosis. It is also referred to as chondroitin sulfate B. <ref>Trowbridge, JM, Gallo, RL (2002 Sep). "Dermatan sulfate: new functions from an old glycosaminoglycan". Glycobiology 12 (9): 117R-25R. PMID 12213784.</ref>

Dermatan sulfate accumulates abnormally in several of the mucopolysaccharidosis disorders.
