Heparan sulfate proteoglycans: structure, protein interactions and cell signaling.
TLDR
The structural characteristics of the heparan sulfate proteoglycans related to protein interactions leading to cell signaling and endocytic uptake pathways are focused on.

Heparin Inhibits Cellular Invasion by SARS-CoV-2: Structural Dependence of the Interaction of the Spike S1 Receptor-Binding Domain with Heparin
TLDR
It is shown that heparin inhibits severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) invasion of Vero cells by up to 80% at doses achievable through prophylaxis and, particularly relevant, within the range deliverable by nebulisation.

Structural and Hemostatic Activities of a Sulfated Galactofucan from the Brown Alga Spatoglossum schroederi
TLDR
The sulfated galactofucan was 2-fold more potent than heparin in stimulating the synthesis of an antithrombotic heparan sulfate by endothelial cells, and suggested that this last effect may be related to the “in vivo” antithROMbotic activity of this polysaccharide.

Crotamine Mediates Gene Delivery into Cells through the Binding to Heparan Sulfate Proteoglycans*
TLDR
It is shown that this toxin at non-toxic concentrations is also capable of binding electrostatically to plasmid DNA forming DNA-peptide complexes whose stabilities overcome the need for chemical conjugation for carrying nucleic acids into cells.
