HAS-1 genetic polymorphism in sporadic abdominal aortic aneurysm
The hyaluronan synthase 1 (HAS-1) gene encodes a plasma membrane protein that synthesizes hyaluronan (HA), an extracellular matrix UHF/VHF Accessories molecule.Accumulating evidence emphasizes the relevance of HA metabolism in an increasing number of processes of clinical interest, including abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA).The existence of aberrant
