Glycosaminoglycans in Development, Health and Disease

Glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) are a family of linear polysaccharides that are found in all animal tissues. Several are used as biomaterials, including heparin, heparin sulfate, keratan sulfate, dermatan sulfate, and chondroitin sulfate. This volume discusses the role of GAGs in development, health and disease.This series provides a forum for discussion of new discoveries, approaches, and ideasContributions from leading scholars and industry expertsReference guide for researchers involved in molecular biology and related fields
