[NMR paper] Radio frequency gradient enhanced diffusion-edited semi-solid state NMR spectroscopy for detailed structural characterization of chemically modified hyaluronic acid hydrogels
Radio frequency gradient enhanced diffusion-edited semi-solid state NMR spectroscopy for detailed structural characterization of chemically modified hyaluronic acid hydrogels
Applications of functionalized hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogels for numerous biomedical applications requires their detailed structural characterization. Since these materials are prepared by multistep chemical modifications in the solid phase and not amenable to characterization by standard analytical tools, we employed high-resolution solid-state NMR spectroscopy to gain detailed insights into the structures of the functionalized HA hydrogels. Divinyl sulfone crosslinked HA hydrogels were...

Resolving Atomic-Level Dynamics and Interactions of High-Molecular-Weight Hyaluronic Acid by Multidimensional Solid-State NMR
High-molecular-weight (HMW) hyaluronic acid (HA) is a highly abundant natural polysaccharide and a fundamental component of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Its size and concentration regulate tissues' macro- and microenvironments, and its upregulation is a hallmark feature of certain tumors. Yet, the conformational dynamics of HMW-HA and how it engages with the components of the ECM microenvironment remain poorly understood at the molecular level. Probing the...

[NMR paper] Production of isotopically enriched high molecular weight hyaluronic acid and characterization by solid-state NMR
Production of isotopically enriched high molecular weight hyaluronic acid and characterization by solid-state NMR
Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a naturally occurring polysaccharide that is abundant in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of all vertebrate cells. HA-based hydrogels have attracted great interest for biomedical applications due to their high viscoelasticity and biocompatibility. In both ECM and hydrogel applications, high molecular weight (HMW)-HA can absorb a large amount of water to yield matrices with a high level of structural integrity. To understand the molecular underpinnings of...
