Genetic analysis has shown that both the core proteins and HS chains contribute to proteoglycan function, but they are not equally important in all contexts. Mutations causing global disruption of HS synthesis (for example, in the EXT genes) have severe developmental consequences, such as early embryonic lethality (Bulow and Hobert, 2006
), as does disruption of the secreted HSPG perlecan (Iozzo, 2005
). However, many core protein or HS modification mutants survive early development and show surprisingly mild or specific phenotypes (Bulow and Hobert, 2006
). Analysis of these mutants reveals important roles for HSPGs in a variety of processes such as eye development, neuronal pathfinding and angiogenesis. Detailed genetic characterization also suggests that redundancy and compensatory mechanisms exist in vivo to safeguard the functions of these critical molecules (Merry et al., 2001
; Grobe et al., 2002
; Kamimura et al., 2006
; Kreuger et al., 2006
).

Syndecan 4 (Sdc4), which is found with
5
1 integrin at focal adhesions, influences cell adhesion in a different way. In response to an extracellular ligand such as fibronectin, the Sdc4 cytoplasmic domain binds phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and directly activates PKC
, which in turn activates RhoA to promote focal adhesion assembly (Oh et al., 1997
; Saoncella et al., 1999
; Couchman, 2003
; Lim et al., 2003
; Dovas et al., 2006
). Thus, Sdc4 and Sdc1 co-signaling activities depend on different domains of the HSPG core protein. Also, focal adhesion assembly requires both the integrin-binding and HS-binding domains of fibronectin.
HSPGs can also function as cell adhesion receptors themselves. For example, they mediate the initial interaction of circulating neutrophils with vascular endothelial cells during inflammation. Disrupting HS modification specifically in endothelial cells weakens the binding of neutrophil L-selectin to endothelial cells and alters neutrophil rolling velocity (Wang et al., 2005
). Mutant animals with a targeted disruption of Ndst1 in endothelial cells show impaired neutrophil invasion in vivo, demonstrating that HSPGs are physiologically important for this process.
| Extracellular gradients |

HSPGs also regulate the tissue distribution of chemokines, small proinflammatory signaling proteins that form chemotactic gradients to recruit neutrophils to sites of injury. HSPGs are not required for chemokines to recruit leukocytes in vitro, but are essential for chemokine activity in vivo because they retain chemokines on endothelial cell surfaces, allowing gradient formation (Proudfoot et al., 2003
; Wang et al., 2005
). In addition, HSPGs play a role in transcytosis of chemokines from the injured tissue across the vascular endothelium to the lumenal surface of blood vessels (Middleton et al., 1997
; Wang et al., 2005
). Shedding of Sdc1 (with bound chemokine) from the cell surface by matrix metalloprotease cleavage increases chemokine migration into injured lung tissue, promoting inflammation (Li et al., 2002
); however, shedding can also limit inflammation by reducing chemokine levels on endothelial cells (Marshall et al., 2003
), highlighting the complexities of HSPG function in this process.
| Membrane trafficking |

|
|

HSPGs also participate in endocytosis. It has been known for some time that endocytosis of low density lipoprotein (LDL) by the LDL-receptor-related protein (LRP) requires HSPGs (Mahley and Ji, 1999
), but recent work has shown that HSPGs independently mediate uptake of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins in the liver (MacArthur et al., 2007
). Because LRP participates in Wingless/Wnt signaling (Pinson et al., 2000
; Wehrli et al., 2000
), and internalized Wingless can be depleted by heparinase treatment of Drosophila wing discs (Greco et al., 2001
), HSPGs might participate in endocytosis of Wnts, but this has not been demonstrated directly. Sdc2 is internalized from the plasma membrane and recycled to the cell surface through its interaction with the adaptor protein syntenin, which provides a link to the Arf6/PIP2 recycling pathway (Zimmermann et al., 2005
). Interestingly, other proteins that associate with syndecans, such as the FGF receptor and
1 integrin, accumulate in recycling endosomes when Arf6-mediated recycling is blocked, which suggests that syndecans may mediate the trafficking of a variety of proteins to and from the cell surface.
