| Background: | Hyaluronan (HA) is a high molecular weight polymer composed of alternating glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine. HA is involved in homeostasis, development, and tissue remodeling. A major receptor for HA is designated as LYVE-1 (Lymphatic vessel endothelial hyaluronan receptor-1). LYVE-1 is a ~35 kDa integral membrane protein which is down-regulated in human liver cancer and cirrhosis. LYVE-1 localizes on the luminal face of the lymph wall, but is absent from blood vessels. Thus, anti-LYVE-1 antibody is a powerful tool for the identification of lymph vessels and for studies of lymphangiogenesis. LYVE-1 antibodies have been used successfully to distinguish lymphatic invasion by malignant tumor cells from blood vessel invasion. |
