Genetic basis for hyper production of hyaluronic acid in natural and engineered microorganisms [PDF]
, 2016 Hyaluronic acid, or HA, is a rigid and linear biopolymer belonging to the class of the glycosaminoglycans, and composed of repeating units of the monosaccharides glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine.

Plastid Engineering for Photosynthesis‐Driven Synthesis of Hyaluronic Acid in Tobacco
Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a glycosaminoglycan composed of alternating units of N‐acetylglucosamine and glucuronic acid. High moisture retention, viscoelasticity and biocompatibility are unique features that make HA polymers attractive compounds for medical applications and aesthetic purposes.

Hyaluronic acid: A novel approach in regenerative/reconstructive periodontal therapy?
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Background Although hyaluronic acid (HA) has long been used for many medical applications, only in recent years has it gained greater popularity in the field of periodontics because of its biological effects during wound healing. Even today, most clinicians are not aware that more than one type of HA exists and that the extent of its ...

Shear stress increases endothelial hyaluronan synthase 2 and hyaluronan synthesis especially in regard to an atheroprotective flow profile [PDF]
Experimental Physiology, 2011 Recent studies revealed that in vivo the inner blood vessel surface is lined with an endothelial surface layer at least 0.5 μm thick, which serves as an aegis, protecting the vessel wall from arteriosclerosis. Hyaluronan seems to be a constitutive component in regard to the atheroprotective properties of this surface structure.

IL-13 is a driver of COVID-19 severity
JCI Insight, 2021 Immune dysregulation is characteristic of the more severe stages of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Understanding the mechanisms by which the immune system contributes to COVID-19 severity may open new avenues to treatment.

Studies on the sperm reservoir of the pig oviduct [PDF]
, 2003 During sperm transport in the female pig a proportion of spermatozoa are arrested, often for 24 h or more, in a particular segment of the utero-tubal junction (UTJ) and the adjacent tubal isthmus, where a sperm reservoir (SR) is built up.

Medicinal Research Reviews, Volume 46, Issue 2, Page 352-381, March 2026.ABSTRACT A plethora of cellular signaling pathways are dysregulated in cancer cells, promoting carcinogenesis and migration. Cholesterol has recently been linked to cancer by several subcellular mechanisms, especially by its involvement in the formation of lipid rafts, which promote oncogenic signaling and cancer cell invasion. Squalene synthase (SQS),
