Heparan sulfates facilitate harmless amyloidogenic fibril formation interacting with elastin-like peptides
Abstract Heparan sulfates (HSs) modulate tissue elasticity in physiopathological conditions by interacting with various matrix constituents as tropoelastin and elastin-derived peptides. HSs bind also to protein moieties accelerating amyloid formation and influencing cytotoxic properties of insoluble...
