Heparan sulfate sodium salt is a glycosaminoglycan, a type of polysaccharide that plays a crucial role in various biological processes, including cell signaling, cell adhesion, and the regulation of growth factors. It is composed of repeating disaccharide units that include glucosamine and uronic acid, which are sulfated at various positions, contributing to its negative charge and biological activity. This compound is typically found in the extracellular matrix and on the surface of cells, where it interacts with proteins, influencing processes such as angiogenesis and wound healing. Heparan sulfate sodium salt is soluble in water and exhibits anticoagulant properties, making it relevant in therapeutic applications, particularly in the context of cardiovascular diseases and as a potential drug delivery agent. Its structural complexity and variability in sulfation patterns allow for diverse interactions with a wide range of biomolecules, underscoring its importance in both health and disease.

Heparan sulfate sodium salt

<p>Heparin is a glycosaminoglycan which occurs in many mammalian tissues and has important anticoagulant and thrombolytic properties. The chemical structure is composed mainly of two disaccharide repeating units A and B. A is L-iduronic acid 2-suplhate linked α-(1,4) to 2-deoxy-2-sulfamido-D-galactose 6-sulphate while B is D-glucuronic acid β-(1,4) linked to 2-deoxy-2-sulfamido-D-glucose 6-sulphate.</p>
