Hyaluronic acid (HA) is a biopolymer composed of repeating units of disaccharides, which include molecules of D-glucuronic acid and N-acetylglucosamine molecules linked by β- (1 4) and β- (1 3)glycosides. It belongs to a group of substances called mucopolysaccharides belonging to the glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) family[1]. Hyaluronic acid also plays an important role in wound healing, ovulation, fertilization, signal transduction, and tumor physiology[2,3].

Hyaluronic acid oligosaccharides of a specific size range induce CD44 cleavage from tumor cells. It raise the possibility that small Hyaluronic acid oligosaccharides, which are known to occur in various tumor tissues, promote tumor invasion by enhancing the tumor cell motility that may be driven by CD44 cleavage[4]. Hyaluronic acid enhances tumor cell adhesion and migration and activates the Ras-mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway as well as the phosphoinositide 3-kinase pathway[5]. Purified autologous adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) combined with Hyaluronic acid facilitated adipose tissue regeneration in a rabbit subcutaneous model[7].

In mice, Cross-linked Hyaluronic acid had minimal effect on the early retention rate of surrounding fat grafts, but enhanced their vascularization. Fat grafts should be not injected into lumps of cross-linked HA. Therefore, agglomerated cross-linked Hyaluronic acid should be dissolved before fat transplantation[6]. Hyaluronic acid-NP treatment of diet-induced obese (DIO) mice reduced the epididymal fat mass and suppressed the induction of adipogenic and lipogenic regulators, while these effects were attenuated in the CD44-null mice[8]. In the animal study, the mice were fed a high-fat diet and treated with Clenbuterol by oral administration, or injected with Clenbuterol-modified Hyaluronic acid hydrogel (HAC) regularly. Both groups showed reduction in whole-body, visceral, and gonadal fat contents and body weight. The abdominal fat was analyzed using MRI imaging in adipose mode and water mode. The abdominal fat ratio in the mice treated with normal diet and those given intra-adipose injections with HAC had the lowest value among the test groups[9].
