Hyaluronidase 2
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
Hyaluronidase 2 (EC:3.2.1.35; HYAL2) is a hyaluronidase. Hyaluronidase 2 cleaves high-molecular-weight hyaluronan into intermediate, ~20 kDa, and tetrasaccharide fragments. Hyaluronidase 2 directly interacts with CD44 and ERM proteins, reduces CD44 hyaluronan binding capacity and ERM activation. Hyaluronidase 2 can be used for the research of gliomas, inflammatory bowel disease, congenital heart defects, heart failure.

Biological Activity
Hyaluronidase 2 directly associates with CD44 in BB16 rat fibroblastic cells, an interaction that requires an acidic pericellular microenvironment but is unaffected by exogenous hyaluronan (HA)[1].
Hyaluronidase 2 (48 h) induces purified human monocytes to produce proinflammatory cytokines IL-6 and IL-8, with this activity dependent on intact HA structure[2].
Hyaluronidase 2 (18 h) mediates degradation of immobilized purified HA exclusively under acidic conditions (optimum pH 3.5)[3].
Hyaluronidase 2 (6 weeks) negatively regulates RON receptor tyrosine kinase function in BEAS-2B immortalized human bronchial epithelial cells by maintaining RON in an inactive state through physical association[5].
Hyaluronidase 2 (2 days) reduces ligand-independent RON tyrosine phosphorylation and MAPK activation induced by JSRV Env in RE7 Madin-Darby canine kidney cells stably expressing human RON, by maintaining association with RON and preventing Env-mediated disruption of this complex[5].
Hyaluronidase 2 (48 h) physically associates with RON in HEK293 human embryonic kidney cells[5].

Hyaluronidase 2 loss significantly increases susceptibility to DSS (HY-116282)-induced colitis in mice, as evidenced by greater weight loss, higher DAI scores, and increased inflammatory cell infiltration[4].
