The regulation of CD44-mediated adhesion to hyaluronan

Although the widely distributed cell surface glycoprotein CD44 has been shown to function as a receptor for the glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan (Aruffo et al, 1990; Miyake etal, 1990b), not all CD44 expressing cell lines are able to bind this particular ligand.
