Glycosaminoglycans in biomedicine [PDF]

open access: yesWIREs Nanomedicine and Nanobiotechnology, 2013
AbstractGlycosaminoglycans (GAGs) compose one of four classes of mammalian biopolymers, and are arguably the most complex. The research areas of glycobiology, glycopolymers, and the use of GAGs within tissue engineering and regenerative medicine have grown exponentially during the past decade.
