HAS2-Ezrin-ER axis plays a role in acquired antiestrogen resistance of ER-positive breast cancer
The development of endocrine resistance is a major clinical problem in estrogen receptor-positive (ER+) breast cancer (BrCa) treatment, in which how cancer cells acquire resistance remains obscure.

In vitro synthesis of heparosan using recombinant Pasteurella multocida heparosan synthase PmHS2 [PDF]
In vertebrates and bacteria, heparosan the precursor of heparin is synthesized by glycosyltransferases via the stepwise addition of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine and UDP-glucuronic acid.

Requirement of Multiple Signaling Pathways for the Augmented Production of Hyaluronan by V-SRC [PDF]
2005-06Malignant transformation of cells is frequently associated with an augmented production of hyaluronan and the subsequent formation of a hyaluronan-matrix.

Hyaluronan synthases (HAS1-3) and hyaluronidases (HYAL1-2) in the accumulation of hyaluronan in endometrioid endometrial carcinoma [PDF]
Abstract Background Hyaluronan accumulation correlates with the degree of malignancy in many solid tumor types, including malignant endometrial carcinomas. To elucidate the mechanism of hyaluronan accumulation, we examined the expression levels of the hyaluronan synthases (HAS1, HAS2 and HAS3) and hyaluronidases ...

HAS2 is a member of the gene family encoding the hyaluronan synthase 2, which can generate high-molecular-weight hyaluronan (HMW-HA). Our previous study identified HAS2 as a candidate gene for increased susceptibility to adult asthma.

The Malignant Phenotype of Breast Cancer Cells Is Reduced by COX-2 Silencing
The cyclooxygenase (COX) pathway is currently targeted for therapeutic intervention in different cancers. We have previously shown that silencing of COX-2 in the poorly differentiated metastatic breast cell line MDA-MB-231 by RNA interference markedly ...

Effect of red ginseng NaturalGEL on skin aging
Background: In aged skin, degradation of collagen fibers, which occupy the majority of the extracellular matrix in the dermis, and changes of aquaporin 3 (AQP3) and skin constituents, such as hyaluronic acid and ceramide, cause wrinkles and decrease skin

Antisense-mediated suppression of hyaluronan synthase 2 inhibits the tumorigenesis and progression of breast cancer [PDF]
The progression of several cancers is correlated with the increased synthesis of the glycosaminoglycan, hyaluronan. Hyaluronan is synthesized at the plasma membrane by various isoforms of hyaluronan synthases (HAS).
