Hyaluronic Acid. Role in Pregnancy and Novel Applications in the Gestational Period, Vittorio Unfer, Editör, NOVA Science Publishers Inc. , New York, ss.53-63, 2021
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a nonsulfated
glycosaminoglycan (GAG) found ubiquitously in the extracellular matrix of all
mammalian tissues. HA has important roles in cell growth, adhesion, migration
and differentiation. It has dynamic roles in the extracellular matrix of normal
reproductive canal tissues, uterus during the menstrual cycle, reproductive
system tissues and fluids during the fertilization process, blastocyst
implantation process, and structure of the placenta and cervix during pregnancy and
during delivery. This chapter will focus on the effects of hyaluronic acid
treatment in maintaining the physiological pregnancy in preclinical studies.
