pulmonary edema, fibrosis, asthma, emphysema, and bronchiectasis.
Proteoglycans in Lung Disease considers

disease

lung tissue
hyaluronan and its receptors in wound healing, inflammation,
vasculogenesis, and angiogenesis
the impact of small proteoglycans on matrix assembly
versican as a modulator of cell adhesion, migration, and
proliferation
antiproliferative activity of heparin and its derivatives on
pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells
the effects of mechanical strain on proteoglycans
the functions of proteoglycans in the vascular wall
the effect of hypoxia on glycosaminoglycans in the lung
