Expression of hyaluronan synthases and hyaluronidases in the MG63 osteoblast cell line
The expression of hyaluronan synthases (1, 2 and 3) and hyaluronidases (1, 2, 3, 4 and PH20) was examined in the MG63 osteoblast cell line induced to mineralize in vitro and compared to the rate of glycosaminoglycan production.

Hyaluronan synthase 2 is an adverse prognostic marker in androgen receptor-negative breast cancer
Aims The important role of hyaluronan synthase 2 (HAS2), an isozyme responsible for hyaluronan synthesis, in cancer has been increasingly recognised. However, only a few studies with inconsistent results have been reported in breast cancers. With a large

Efficient TGFβ-induced epithelial–mesenchymal transition depends on hyaluronan synthase HAS2
Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a developmental program, which can be adopted by cancer cells to increase their migration and ability to form metastases. Transforming growth factor β (TGFβ) is a well-studied inducer of EMT. We demonstrate that
