Endothelial cell-specific reduction of heparan sulfate suppresses glioma growth in mice

Abstract Purpose Heparan sulfate (HS) is one of the factors that has been suggested to be associated with angiogenesis and invasion of glioblastoma (GBM), an aggressive and fast-growing brain tumor. However, it remains unclear how HS of endothelial cells is involved in angiogenesis in glioblastoma a...
