The syndecan family of cell surface proteoglycans can bind and modulate the activity of a diverse group of soluble and insoluble ligands, which have been shown to modulate events relevant to acute tissue repair and chronic injury responses. The expression of members of the syndecan family of heparan sulfate proteoglycans during the course of aortic aneurysm formation has not been previously investigated. In this investigation, the spatiotemporal expression of syndecan-1, -2, and -4 was characterized in a murine model of aneurysm formation.
