MCF10CA Breast Cancer Cells Utilize Hyaluronan-Coated EV-Rich Trails for Coordinated Migration
Frontiers in Oncology, 2022 Invasion of tumor cells through the stroma is coordinated in response to migratory cues provided by the extracellular environment. One of the most abundant molecules in the tumor microenvironment is hyaluronan, a glycosaminoglycan known to promote many ...

Diagnostic usefulness of Hyaluronan and Hyaluronan Synthases-A Review [PDF]
International Journal of Multidisciplinary and Current Research, 2018 The first isolation of HA was in the year 1934, but research on HA and its clinical significance in health and disease started only in the year 1970. Both HA and HASs play a significant role in many physiological and pathological processes. The cellular HA synthesis are coordinated collectively by HASs.

The where, when, how and why of hyaluronan binding by immune cells
Frontiers in Immunology, 2015 Hyaluronan is made and extruded from cells to form a pericellular or extracellular matrix (ECM) and is present in virtually all tissues in the body. The size and form of hyaluronan present in tissues is indicative of a healthy or inflamed tissue, and the

Importance of hyaluronan biosynthesis and degradation in cell differentiation and tumor formation
Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2003 Hyaluronan is an important connective tissue glycosaminoglycan. Elevated hyaluronan biosynthesis is a common feature during tissue remodeling under both physiological and pathological conditions.
