Size Matters: Molecular Weight Specificity of Hyaluronan Effects in Cell Biology
Open accessAbstract
Hyaluronan signaling properties are unique among other biologically active molecules, that they are apparently not influenced by postsynthetic molecular modification, but by hyaluronan fragment size. This review summarizes the current knowledge about the generation of hyaluronan fragments of different size and size-dependent differences in hyaluronan signaling as well as their downstream biological effects.

“HA of higher molecular weight can be digested by a variety of enzymatic and nonenzymatic [18, 29, 32, 72, 73] pathways to 50–100 long saccharide polymers and then be taken up by the cell either through receptor binding (CD44, RHAMM, LYVE-1, HARE) [74, 75] or through pinocytosis [76].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
