These heparan sulfate (HS) mutant mouse lung endothelial cell lines (MLEC) were generated by transiently transducing the immortalized wildtype mother
mouse lung endothelial cell line which harbors conditionally targeted Ext1f/f, Ndst1f/f, Ndst1f/f;Ndst2-/-, Hs2stf/f, Hs6st1f/f, Hs6st1f/f;Hs6st2-/- and Sulf1f/f;Sulf2f/f genes followed by cell cloning.
Highlights:
Heparan sulfate (HS) is a linear polysaccharide found in all animal tissues that occurs as a proteoglycan (HSPG, i.e. Heparan Sulfate ProteoGlycan). HS binds to a variety of protein ligands, including Wnt, when its two or three chains are attached in close proximity to cell surface or extracellular matrix proteins. In addition to protein ligand binding, HS has a role in regulating a number of biological processes, such as developmental, as well as angiogenesis, blood coagulation, abolishing detachment activity by GrB and tumor metastasis. Based on a number of studies, it was shown that this polysaccharide can also serve as a cellular receptor for certain viruses (such as syncytial virus and possibly has a role in SARS-CoV-2 infection).
