Subject: The total level of heparansulfate- and hyaluronate-binding activity of proteins in brain. Aim: To investigate the role of macromolecule that specific bind the heparansulfate and hyaluronate during different stages of rat and human brain morphogenesis under normal conditions, and effect of hyperphenylalanunemia, 131I-inducable maternal hypothyroidism, low dose irradiation, somatogenic postoperative pain to rats was investigated. Materials and Methods: biochemical, immuno-, cytochemical, it was developed solid phase and histochemical carbohydrate analysis. Novelty: It was proposed the conception of morphogenic events (proliferation, migration, adhesion, synaprogenesis) depends of total level of heparansulfate- and hyaluronate-binding activity of extracellular/cytoskeleton brain protein. The new membrane-associated heparansulfate-binding proteins from newborn rat brain (19 и 28 кДа) and membrane hyaluronate-binding proteins from embryonic human brain (250 и 20 кДа) were purified. Field of implementation: laboratory and diagnostic biochemistry, biotechnology.
