Inhibition of hyaluronan synthesis reduces versican and fibronectin levels in trabecular meshwork cells.
Hyaluronan (HA) is a major component of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and is synthesized by three HA synthases (HAS). Similarities between the HAS2 knockout mouse and the hdf mutant mouse, which has a mutation in the versican gene, suggest that HA and versican expression may be linked. In this stud...
