Intermediate Molecular Mass Hyaluronan and CD44 Receptor Interactions Enhance Neutrophil Phagocytosis and IL-8 Production via p38- and ERK1/2-MAPK Signalling Pathways
CD44 is a common leukocyte adhesion molecule expressed on the surface of various cells. Hyaluronan (HA), the natural ligand of CD44, is a simple repeated disaccharide with variable molecular mass that is widely distributed on cell surfaces and the connective tissue matrix. The binding of small molec...
