Oligosaccharides including those usable as anti-inflammatory agent or anti-allergy agent, represented by the following general formula (3): wherein R10 and R11 each independently represent a hydrogen atom or —SO3M where M represents a proton or a monovalent cation, Ac represents an acetyl group, R12 represents a hydrogen atom or an anomeric substituent (a 6-O-sulfated N-acetylglucosamine residue, an alkyl group, a glycerol residue, an O-alkylglycerol residue, a cholesterol residue, a cholestanyl group, a ceramide residue, a phospholipid residue, a biotin residue, or a peptide residue), and Z represents an oxygen atom or —NHCO—.

There is provided a glycosaminoglycan having a backbone structure comprising a repetitive disaccharide bearing a uronic acid residue and a glucosamine residue, and having sulfate groups, wherein substantially no sulfate group bound to the hydroxyl group at the 6-position of the glucosamine residue in the backbone structure is detected as determined by a chemical disaccharide analysis method in which the glycosaminoglycan is decomposed with nitrous acid, reacted with para-nitrophenylhydrazine and analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography, and the molar % of a uronic acid residue having a sulfate group at the 2-position is not less than 45% relative to total uronic acid residues, which is calculated from a disaccharide composition obtained by an enzymatic disaccharide analysis method in which the glycosaminoglycan is digested with glycosaminoglycan-degrading enzymes and analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography. The glycosaminoglycan can be used as an active ingredient of pharmaceuticals.
摘要:
Dermatan sulfate compositions having certain characteristics have been found to have thrombolytic activity. Dermatan sulfate combined with tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) enhances the thrombolytic activity of t-PA. Antithrombotic compositions containing dermatan sulfates can be used for treating various thrombotic diseases.
摘要:
The inventions provides a method for immunologically determining a keratan sulfate level which method includes bringing an anti-keratan sulfate monoclonal antibody into contact with a biological sample, the anti-keratan sulfate monoclonal antibody exhibiting a relative reaction specificity between keratan sulfate-I and keratan sulfate-II represented by IC50KS-I/KS-II of 0.4 to 5, to thereby provide a signal; and detecting keratan sulfate contained in the biological sample from the signal. On the basis of the method, the invention also provides a joint disease detection method and a method for assessing the effect of a remedy for a joint disease and a candidate substance therefor. Through these methods, a very small amount of keratan sulfate contained in a sample, can be determined. Particularly, these methods can determine, at high-sensitivity and high-specificity, the total keratan sulfate including keratan sulfate-I, which have been difficult to determine through a conventional technique. The methods also enables detect a joint disease and assess the effect of a remedy for a joint disease or a candidate substance therefor.
