ABSTRACT
1. Proteoglycans are macromolecules composed of a protein and one or mor chains of sulfated carbohydrates, the glycosaminoglycans. Proteoglycans are found on the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix participating in the cell-cell-extracellular matrizx interaction. In this review I present the information accumulated in the past years regarding the presence, characteristics, localization, control of expression and alteration in some pathological states of skeletal muscle proteoglycans. 2. This review presents and discusses current information in this area and some projections for the future in four sections first, the proteoglycans present in embryonic cells and cell lines from skeletal muscle. Second, the presence of proteoglycans in adult skeletal muscles. Third, the regulation of the expression of skeletal muscle proteoglycans, and fourth, skeletal muscle proteoglycans in pathological conditions
