The role of hyaluronan in angiogenesis through RHAMM and CD44 receptors in endothelial cells

Oligosaccharides of hyaluronan (o-HA; 3-10 disaccharides) are pro-angiogenic and are believed to act through two receptors, C044 and RHAMM (receptor for hyluronanmediated motility). Utilizing human liver micro-vessel-derived endothelial cells (HLMVEC)and bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAEC), the r...
