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, heparan sulfate, keratan sulfate, dermatan sulfate, chondroitin sulfate. This volume discusses the role of GAGs in development, health and diseas...
