透明质酸是一种简单的重复二糖聚合物,通过整体膜合酶在细胞表面合成。重复的序列是完全均匀的,在所有脊椎动物组织和体液中都是相同的。聚合物的相对分子质量变化较大。最常见的合成方法是以高分子质量聚合物的形式合成,平均分子质量约为1,000-8,000 kDa。有许多研究表明,当炎症或组织重塑过程发生时,组织或液体中的透明质酸含量增加,但平均分子量减少,大小范围更广。在平行的研究中,外源的低分子质量的透明质酸片段(通常为200 kDa)已被证明通过与CD44和RHAMM(基因名称HMMR)等受体蛋白结合来影响细胞行为,并直接或间接地通过Toll样受体传递信号。这些数据表明,受体对透明质酸大小的敏感性提供了细胞周围微环境状态的生物传感器。透明质酸及其片段的分离和鉴定的灵敏方法已经被开发出来,并且还在不断改进。本文对生物体液和组织中透明质酸的含量和大小分布的研究方法和我们的研究现状进行了综述。
Hyaluronan is a simple repeating disaccharide polymer, synthesized at the cell surface by integral membrane synthases. The repeating sequence is perfectly homogeneous, and is the same in all vertebrate tissues and fluids. The polymer molecular mass is more variable. Most commonly, hyaluronan is synthesized as a high-molecular mass polymer, with an average molecular mass of approximately 1000–8000 kDa. There are a number of studies showing increased hyaluronan content, but reduced average molecular mass with a broader range of sizes present, in tissues or fluids when inflammatory or tissue-remodeling processes occur. In parallel studies, exogenous hyaluronan fragments of low-molecular mass (generally, <200 kDa) have been shown to affect cell behavior through binding to receptor proteins such as CD44 and RHAMM (gene name HMMR), and to signal either directly or indirectly through toll-like receptors. These data suggest that receptor sensitivity to hyaluronan size provides a biosensor of the state of the microenvironment surrounding the cell. Sensitive methods for isolation and characterization of hyaluronan and its fragments have been developed and continue to improve. This review provides an overview of the methods and our current state of knowledge of hyaluronan content and size distribution in biological fluids and tissues.
