Recent studies on the extracellular matrix
have revealed not only its static function to merely
support cells but also its dynamic function to regulate
cell behaviors by storing and distributing signaling
molecules and growth factors. Thus, importance of the
matrix as microenvironment for the cell has been recognized
by various research fields including development, cancer,
and tissue engineering. On the other hand, recent advances
in carbohydrate researches have demonstrated specific
function of carbohydrates.
The aim of this international symposium, entitled "Extracellular
Glycomatrix", is to connect both fields toward
further understanding of the structure and function
of the extracellular matrix, especially focusing on
carbohydrate molecules such as hyaluronan and proteogylcans. |
