Investigation of the pharmacokinetic properties of synthetic heparan sulfate oligosaccharides.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Heparan sulfate (HS) is a sulfated polysaccharide with a wide range of biological activities. There is an increasing interest in the development of structurally homogeneous HS oligosaccharides as therapeutics. However, the factors influencing the pharmacokinetic properties of HS-based therapeutics remain unknown. Here, we report the pharmacokinetic properties of a panel of dodecasaccharides (12-mers) with varying sulfation patterns in healthy mice and uncover the pharmacokinetic properties of an octadecasaccharide (18-mer) in acutely injured mice. In the 12-mer panel, 1 12-mer, known as dekaparin, is anticoagulant, and 3 12-mers are nonanticoagulant. The concentrations of 12-mers in plasma and urine were determined by the disaccharide analysis using liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry. We observed a striking difference between anticoagulant and nonanticoagulant oligosaccharides in the 12-mer panel, showing that anticoagulant dekaparin had a 4.6-fold to 8.6-fold slower clearance and 4.4-fold to 8-fold higher plasma exposure compared to nonanticoagulant 12-mers. We also observed that the clearance of HS oligosaccharides is impacted by disease. Using an antiinflammatory 18-mer, we discovered that the clearance of 18-mer is reduced 2.8-fold in a liver failure mouse model compared to healthy mice. Our results suggest that oligosaccharides are rapidly cleared renally if they have low interaction with circulating proteins. We observed that the clearance rate of oligosaccharides is inversely associated with the degree of binding to target proteins, which can vary in response to pathophysiological conditions. Our findings uncover a contributing factor for the plasma and renal clearance of oligosaccharides which will aid the development of HS-based therapeutics.
