Hyaluronan synthases; mechanisms, myths, & mysteries of three types of unique bifunctional glycosyltransferases

open access: yesGlycobiology, 2023
Hyaluronan (HA), the essential [-3-GlcNAc-1-β-4-GlcA-1-β-]n matrix polysaccharide in vertebrates and molecular camouflage coating in select pathogens, is polymerized by “HA synthase” (HAS) enzymes.

Hyaluronan Synthase 1: A Novel Candidate Gene Associated With Late-Onset Non-syndromic Hereditary Hearing Loss [PDF]

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Otorhinolaryngology, 2022
Objectives Hyaluronan synthase 1 (HAS1) is a membrane-bound protein that is abundant in the epidermis and dermis, and it is important for skin function. However, its association with hearing loss has not yet been studied.

PP2B and ERK1/2 regulate hyaluronan synthesis of HT168 and WM35 human melanoma cell lines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Hyaluronan (HA) is the major glycosaminoglycan component of the extracellular matrix in either normal or malignant tissues and it may affect proliferation, motility and differentiation of various cell types.

Diagnostic usefulness of Hyaluronan and Hyaluronan Synthases-A Review [PDF]

open access: yesInternational 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.

Connective tissue growth factor mediates bone morphogenetic protein 2-induced increase in hyaluronan production in luteinized human granulosa cells

open access: yesReproductive Biology and Endocrinology, 2022
Background Hyaluronan is the main component of the cumulus-oocyte complex (COC) matrix, and it maintains the basic structure of the COC during ovulation.

The hyaluronan-related genes HAS2, HYAL1-4, PH20 and HYALP1 are associated with prognosis, cell viability and spheroid formation capacity in ovarian cancer

open access: yesJournal of Cancer Research and Clinical Oncology, 2022
Purpose Hyaluronan modulates tumour progression, including cell adhesion, cohesion, proliferation and invasion, and the cancer stem cell phenotype. In ovarian cancer, high levels of stromal hyaluronan are associated with poor prognosis.
