CHANGES IN CARDIAC HEPARAN SULFATE PROTEOGLYCAN EXPRESSION AND STREPTOZOTOCIN-INDUCED DIASTOLIC DYSFUNCTION IN RATS

Changes in cardiac heparan sulfate proteoglycan expression and streptozotocin-induced diastolic dysfunction in rats

Abstract Background Changes in the proteoglycans glypican and syndecan-4 have been reported in several pathological conditions, but little is known about their expression in the heart during diabetes.The aim of this study was to investigate in vivo heart function changes and alterations in mRNA expression and protein levels of glypican-1 and syndec
