The hyaluronan (HA)–rich extracellular matrix plays dynamic roles during tissue remodeling. Versican and serum-derived HA-associated protein (SHAP), corresponding to the heavy chains of inter-α-trypsin inhibitor, are major HA-binding molecules in remodeling processes, such as wound healing. Versican G1-domain fragment (VG1F) is generated by proteolysis and is present in either remodeling tissues or the mature dermis. However, the macrocomplex formation of VG1F has not been clarified. Therefore, we examined the VG1F-containing macrocomplex in pressure ulcers characterized by chronic refractory wounds. VG1F colocalized with SHAP-HA in specific regions of the granulation tissue but not with fibrillin-1. A unique VG1F-SHAP-HA complex was isolated from granulation tissues using gel filtration chromatography and subsequent cesium chloride–gradient ultracentrifugation under dissociating conditions. Consistent with this molecular composition, recombinant versican G1, but not versican G3, interacted with the two heavy chains of inter-α-trypsin inhibitor. The addition of recombinant VG1 in fibroblast cultures enhanced VG1F-SHAP-HA complex deposition in the pericellular extracellular matrix. Comparison with other VG1F-containing macrocomplexes, including dermal VG1F aggregates, versican-bound microfibrils, and intact versican, highlighted the tissue-specific organization of HA-rich extracellular matrix formation containing versican and SHAP. The VG1F-SHAP-HA complex was specifically detected in the edematous granulation tissues of human pressure ulcers and in inflamed stages in a mouse model of moist would healing, suggesting that the complex provides an HA-rich matrix suitable for inflammatory reactions.
