Investigation on Plant Heparanase and its InhibitorsBy Ramya Gunashekaran, Ragavi Sasikumar
Abstract: Heparanase is an endoglycosidase which cleaves heparan sulfate (HS) and hence participates in degradation and remodelling of extracellular matrix (ECM). It further regulates multiple biological activities that enhance tumour growth, angiogenesis and metastasis. Heparanase expression is enhanced in almost all cancers examined including various carcinomas, sarcomas and haematological malignancies. In the present article, heparanase enzyme in plants and its activity against inhibitors was described. Here the heparanase enzyme and the …
