Hyaluronan synthase 2 expressed by cancer-associated fibroblasts promotes oral cancer invasion
Journal of Experimental & Clinical Cancer Research, 2016 Background Hyaluronan synthases (HAS) control the biosynthesis of hyaluronan (HA) and critically modulate the tumor microenviroment. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) affect the progression of a tumor by remolding the matrix.

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.Objective The hematopoietic system maintains homeostasis by balancing myeloid and lymphoid cell production in the bone marrow (BM). In response to increased hematopoietic demand, extramedullary hematopoiesis (EMH) may occur in nonlymphoid organs. We investigated the role of EMH and kidney‐resident hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) in ...

Oocyte–cumulus cell interaction: a key factor in early embryo development
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The evaluation of oocyte competence is a fundamental step in achieving successful outcomes following assisted reproduction techniques (ART). At present, however, conventional oocyte maturation assessment is carried out by morphological observation, which is a subjective method that does not consider molecular features.

Effects of Ferrostatin‐1 on Vocal Folds in Aging Rats
The Laryngoscope, EarlyView.Age‐related vocal fold degeneration is associated with oxidative stress, and ferroptosis may contribute to structural changes in aging vocal folds. In this aged rat model, intracordal injection of the antioxidant ferrostatin‐1 attenuated ferroptosis‐related changes and was associated with modulation of collagen accumulation, hyaluronic acid ...

Frontiers in Neurology, 2014 Traumatic brain injury triggers many secondary changes in tissue biology which ultimately determine the extent of injury and clinical outcome. Hyaluronan (hyaluronic acid, HA) is a protective cementing gel present in the intercellular spaces whose ...

Equine Endometrosis Pathological Features: Are They Dependent on NF-κB Signaling Pathway?
Animals, 2021 Endometrosis is an important mares’ disease which considerably decreases their fertility. As classic endometrial classification methods might be insufficient for tissue pathological evaluation, further categorization into active/inactive and destructive ...

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.ECM, extracellular matrix; BDNF, brain‐derived neuroptrophic factor; FGF, fibroblast growth factor; VEGF, vascular endothelial growth factor. Abstract Heparan sulfate, a structurally diverse glycosaminoglycan that is abundant in the central nervous system (CNS), orchestrates essential processes fundamental to neural plasticity, neurorepair, and ...

Hyaluronan Synthase 3 Regulates Hyaluronan Synthesis in Cultured Human Keratinocytes [PDF]
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2002 Three human hyaluronan synthase genes (HAS1, HAS2, and HAS3) have been cloned, but the functional differences between these HAS genes remains obscure. The purpose of this study was to examine which of the HAS genes are selectively regulated in epidermis.

Understanding and addressing resistance to IMiDs immunomodulatory compounds in multiple myeloma
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.IMiDs are pivotal in the treatment of multiple myeloma. Mechanisms of resistance comprise cell intrinsic and extrinsic pathways, involving tumour microenvironment, immune cell dysfunction, CRBN‐dependent and independent genetic drivers and epigenetic changes.

The control and importance of hyaluronan synthase expression in palatogenesis [PDF]
Frontiers in Physiology, 2013 Development of the lip and palate involves a complex series of events that requires the close co-ordination of cell migration, growth, differentiation, and apoptosis. Palatal shelf elevation is considered to be driven by regional accumulation and hydration of glycosoaminoglycans, principally hyaluronan (HA), which provides an intrinsic shelf force ...
