Figure 5

(A) Low sulfated CS ratio to total CS for each iPSEC sample. (B) CS-C6 ratio to total CS for each iPSEC sample. MMD3 showed a significantly lower ratio of CS-C6, compared with Control 1 or 2 (*P < 0.05). (C) CS-C4 ratio to total CS for each iPSEC sample. (D) Expression of enzymes for CS sulfation. Although there was no statistical significance, C4ST1, C4ST2 and C6ST-1 tended to be downregulated in MMD. UST, uronyl 2-O-sulfotransferase; C4ST, chondroitin 4-O-sulfotransferase; D4ST, dermatan 4-O-sulfotransferase; C6ST, chondroitin 6-O-sulfotransferase; GalNAc4S-6ST, N-acetylgalactosamine 4-sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase. Error bars are SEM.
