Abstract
The present research work demonstrated that the diverse pharma grade hyaluronan fragments could modulate cellular processes differently. From 1800 kDa down to 50 kDa, CD44 was the recognized receptor and pro-inflammatory biomarkers were only slightly up-regulated during wound healing in the presence of HA. Finally our outcomes showed that the lower the fragment size the higher the concern for inflammatory cytokines up-regulation; repair process impairment was highlighted only for 6 kDa chains.
