Hyaluronan Derived From the Limbus is a Key Regulator of Corneal Lymphangiogenesis

Purpose We recently reported that the glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan (HA), which promotes inflammatory angiogenesis in other vascular beds, is an abundant component of the limbal extracellular matrix. Consequently, we have explored the possibility that HA contributes to lymphangiogenesis in the inflamed cornea.
