physiological function | in breast cancer cells, depletion of the hyaluronic acid precursor UDP-glucuronic acid is sufficient to inhibit several mesenchymal-like properties including cellular invasion and colony formation in vitro, as well as tumor growth and metastasis in vivo. Depletion of UDP-glucuronic acid alters the expression of PPAR-gamma target genes and increases PPAR-gamma DNA binding activity | Homo sapiens |
