Hyaluronic acid induces osteopontin via the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt pathway to enhance the motility of human glioma cells
Hyaluronic acid (HA) binds to cell-surface receptors such as CD44, and seems to be involved in cell adhesion, motility, and tumor progression in brain. To identify gene expression changes that are initiated by HA, we explored human cytokine arrays in U87MG glioma cells and identified osteopontin, a...
