Polysialic acid is released by human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) in vitro
Abstract Background Sialic acids represent common terminal residues on numerous mammalian glycoconjugates, thereby influencing e.g. lumen formation in developing blood vessels. Interestingly, besides monosialylated also polysialylated glycoconjugates are produced by endothelial cells. Polysialic aci...
