Pavão Multidisciplinaria (Ciencias Naturales y Exactas) heparin ascidian anticoagulant antithrombotic dermatan sulfate Dermatan sulfates and heparin, similar to the mammalian glycosaminoglycans, but with differences in thedegree and position of sulfation were previously isolated from the body of the ascidian Styela plicata andAscidia nigra. These differences produce profound effects on their anticoagulant properties. S. plicatadermatan sulfate composed by 2-O-sulfated α-L-iduronic acid and 4-O-sulfated N-acetyl-β-D-galactosamineresidues is a potent anticoagulant due to a high heparin cofactor II activity.

In contrast, A. nigra dermatan sulfate, also enriched in 2-O-sulfated α-Liduronicacid, but in this case sulfated at O-6 of the N-acetyl-β-D-galactosamine units, has no in vitro or invivo anticoagulant activity, does not prevent thrombus formation but shows a bleeding effect similar to themammalian glycosaminoglycan.
