The neutral type 2 sphingomyelinase (nSMase2) hydrolyzes sphingomyelin and generates ceramide, a major bioactive sphingolipid mediator, involved in growth arrest and apoptosis. The role of nSMase2 in apoptosis is debated, and apparently contradictory results have been observed on fibroblasts isolated from nSMase2-deficient fragilitas ossium (homozygous fro/fro) mice. These mice exhibit a severe...

The aim of the present study was to determine the mechanisms through which 20-O-β-D-glucopyranosyl-20(S)-protopanaxadiol (20GPPD) promotes the production of hyaluronic acid (HA) in human keratinocytes. 20GPPD is the primary bioactive metabolite of Rb1, a major ginsenoside found in ginseng (Panax ginseng). We sought to elucidate the underlying mechanisms behind the 20GPPD-induced production of H...

This study aimed to understand the role of the matrix polysaccharide, hyaluronan (HA), in influencing the scarring process by assessing its impact on regulating fibroblast behavior. Donor-matched human oral and dermal fibroblasts were used as models of nonscarring and scarring fibroblast phenotypes, respectively. Phenotypic differences in these two fibroblast populations were assessed and relat...

Hyaluronan synthases (HAS1-3) are integral plasma membrane proteins that synthesize hyaluronan, a cell surface and extracellular matrix polysaccharide necessary for many biological processes. It has been shown that HAS is partly localized in cholesterol-rich lipid rafts of MCF-7 cells, and cholesterol depletion with methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (MbetaCD) suppresses hyaluronan secretion in smooth mu...

The naked mole rat (Heterocephalus glaber) displays exceptional longevity, with a maximum lifespan exceeding 30 years. This is the longest reported lifespan for a rodent species and is especially striking considering the small body mass of the naked mole rat. In comparison, a similarly sized housemouse has amaximum lifespan of 4 years. In addition to their longevity, nakedmole rats show an unus...

BACKGROUND/AIMS Hyaluronan is present in the trabecular meshwork where it is involved in the pathophysiology of aqueous outflow environment. In this study, the expression and regulation of hyaluronan synthase (HAS), which is the enzyme synthesising hyaluronan, in trabecular meshwork cells were investigated. METHODS Cultured bovine trabecular meshwork cells (BTMCs) were used. HAS expression in...

Several studies have suggested that increased production of hyaluronan (HA) is associated with metastatic behavior in various malignant tumors. To our knowledge, HA molecular weights required for metastasis are still unsolved in osteosarcoma. We examined the size of HA and hyaluronan synthase (HAS) isoforms related to biological functions required for metastasis in the LM8 stably highly metasta...
