    basic FUNCTION
  • playing a role in the organization of cell shape by affecting the actin cytoskeleton, possibly by transferring signals from the cell surface in a sugar-dependent
  • regulator of the mitotic behavior of chondrocytes
  • may be involving formation of dimeric/oligomeric structures on their cell surface
  • with SDC4,function as coreceptors for tyrosine kinases and in cell adhesion
  • novel regulator of feeding behavior and body weight, having a potential role as a modulator of gonadal steroid function
  • Syndecan-3 and NOTCH1 cooperate in regulating homeostasis of the satellite cell population and myofiber size
  • may directly transduce GDNF family ligands (GFLs) signals or serve as a coreceptor, presenting GFLs to the signaling receptor RET

    protein
  • interacts with NOTCH1 and is required for NOTCH1 processing by ADAM17/tumor necrosis factor-alpha-converting enzyme (TACE) and signal transduction
  • GDNF family ligands (GFLs)-syndecan-3 interaction mediates both cell spreading and neurite outgrowth with the involvement of Src kinase activation

    an effective microbicide should target both syndecan-3 and CD209 on dendritic cells to prevent HIV transmission
    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
    Syndecan-3(-/-) mice exhibit a novel form of muscular dystrophy characterized by impaired locomotion, fibrosis, and hyperplasia of myonuclei and satellite cells
