Rheology of hyaluronic acid 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
The dynamic viscoelastic properties of hyaluronic acid solutions have been measured over the frequency range 0.02–1.67 cps. The effects of varying temperature, hyaluronic acid concentration, pH, and ionic strength on the dynamic shear moduli were studied. The solutions exhibited a sharp transition from viscous to elastic behavior as the strain frequency increased. No entanglement coupling of the hyaluronic acid molecules was evident over the concentration range 2.0–4.0 mg./ml. Solutions at pH 2.5 showed a pronounced elastic behavior relative to both higher and lower pH's. This effect was attributed to a stiffening of the hyaluronic acid molecule at this pH. 相似文献

Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a commercially valuable medical biopolymer increasingly produced through microbial fermentation. Viscosity limits product yield and the focus of research and development has been on improving the key quality parameters, purity and molecular weight. Traditional strain and process optimisation has yielded significant improvements, but appears to have reached a limit. Metabolic engineering is providing new opportunities and HA produced in a heterologous host is about to enter the market. In order to realise the full potential of metabolic engineering, however, greater understanding of the mechanisms underlying chain termination is required. 相似文献

In this work the biological activity of hyaluronic acid (HA), isolated from fowl crests, is evaluated. The data on the physico-chemical analysis of HA are presented. The preparation obtained is characterized by a high content of the main substance and high relative viscosity. Sterilization conditions for HA, depending on the degree of microbial contamination of the preparation, were carried out. As revealed in this study, irradiation with a dose of 1.0 Mrad is sufficient for obtaining a sterile preparation. HA has been found to possess inhibiting activity with respect to Pseudomonas. 相似文献

Electrically conductive polypyrrole (PPY) was surface functionalized with hyaluronic acid (HA) and sulfated hyaluronic acid (SHA) to improve its surface biocompatibility. The immobilization of HA on the PPY film was facilitated by the use of a cross-linker having the appropriate functional groups. The biological activity of the HA functionalized PPY film was assessed by means of an in vitro PC12 cell culture. The cell attachment on different substrates was studied and determined by bicinchoninic acid protein analysis. Cell attachment on the HA functionalized PPY film surface was significantly enhanced in the presence of nerve growth factor. The SHA functionalized PPY film was obtained by the sulfonation of the immobilized HA using pyridinesulfonate. The retention of the biological activity of the immobilized HA after sulfonation was evaluated by the in vitro assessment of the plasma recalcification time (PRT) and platelet adhesion on the substrate. The PRT observed from the SHA functionalized PPY film was significantly prolonged compared with the HA functionalized PPY. Some reduction of platelet adhesion was observed for the SHA functionalized PPY film, compared with that of the HA functionalized PPY film. 相似文献

Human fibrinogen specifically binds hyaluronic acid 总被引:11,自引:0,他引:11

Fibrin and hyaluronic acid (HA) are macromolecules whose concentrations are elevated at the same time in the extracellular space of damaged tissues. We have investigated whether HA can bind to fibrinogen using solid phase and soluble assays. Purified human fibrinogen specifically bound to HA-Sepharose to a greater extent (greater than 5-fold) than did alpha 1-acid glycoprotein, DNaseI, ovalbumin, haptoglobin, or lysozyme. Fibrinogen did not bind to ethanolamine-Sepharose, a control chromatographic support. Treatment of HA-Sepharose containing bound 125I-fibrinogen with ovine testicular hyaluronidase released 44% of the 125I radioactivity, indicating that fibrinogen was specifically bound to HA. Moreover, 125I-fibrinogen bound to HA-Sepharose could be displaced by free HA but not by either of the monosaccharide components of this polymer, glucuronic acid, or N-acetylglucosamine. Chondroitin sulfate and polygalacturonic acid competed only weakly for bound 125I-fibrinogen. Bound 125I-fibrinogen was also not released by high concentrations of NaCl (up to 4 M), indicating that the interaction is not simply ionic. The apparent affinity of fibrinogen for HA covaried with the molecular weight of the HA. Small HA oligosaccharides (Mr = 3900) were only 50% as effective as larger HA (Mr = 8 X 10(5)) in eluting bound 125I-fibrinogen from HA-Sepharose. The optimal oligosaccharide size for displacement of bound 125I-fibrinogen was greater than or equal to 200 monosaccharides. Additionally, the amount of 125I-fibrinogen bound to HA-Sepharose was directly related to the size of the HA-amine linked to the affinity support. The affinity constant for fibrinogen binding to 125I-HA (approximately 150 monosaccharides) is estimated to be at least 2 X 10(7) M-1. These results demonstrate for the first time a specific, reversible binding between HA and fibrinogen. 相似文献

Exogenous hyaluronic acid (HA) added to a confluent monolayer of 3T3 BALB cells facilitates cell detachment which can be enhanced by gently pipetting. When HA is added to a cell culture with the cell inoculum, the cells are able to grow and form a confluent monolayer, but the cellular density is lower than in the control cultures, in a concentration-dependent way. This difference seems due to the ease of detachment promoted by HA on the cells near confluency. In fact only near confluency is the amount of the detached cells greater in the culture plates containing HA than in controls. Culture dishes containing substrate-attached material (SAM) left behind by the confluent 3T3 BALB cells have been prepared by removing the cells with different detaching agents. The SAM-containing dishes have been incubated in the presence of HA for 24 h and, after washing, were used for cell cultures. The cells grown on such HA-treated dishes show a very low density at confluency and in some cases are prevented from forming a confluent monolayer. When the SAM-containing dishes are treated with Streptomyces hyaluronidase, the effect of HA is abolished and the cells are able to grow normally. Among the chondroitin sulphates, only chondroitin sulphate C shows the same effects as HA, whereas A and B are ineffective. 相似文献

Previous work in the rabbit has shown that there is a significant flux of plasma hyaluronic acid (HA) which is taken up and degraded mainly in the liver but also concentrated in the spleen. Purified 14C-labelled HA of high average molecular wt prepared by biosynthesis from D-[U-14C] glucose was injected i.v. in mice and its tissue distribution was determined by whole-body autoradiography during the next 24 h. As blood levels declined, radioactivity was concentrated in the liver and spleen as found in the rabbit, and also in bone marrow and lymph nodes. Distribution was uniform in liver tissue, concentrated and relatively persistent in the periphery of lymph nodes, and distinctly nodular within the spleen. Analysis of an aqueous liver extract taken 4 h after injection identified 14C in HA, in a macromolecular fraction resistant to fungal hyaluronidase, and in metabolites of low molecular wt. These findings confirm and extend observations based on tissue extraction in rabbits. The pattern of distribution through the body and the restricted localization within spleen and lymph nodes further suggest that HA is absorbed from plasma and tissue fluids by elements of the reticuloendothelial system. 相似文献
