Heparan Sulfate, 5mg

Heparan sulfate (HS, Heparitin sulfate, Alpha-idosane, HHS 5, N-Acetylheparan Sulfate, Suleparoid, Tavidan), a constituent of HS proteoglycans (HSPGs), is a linear polysaccharide present on the cell surface. Heparan sulfate influences the binding affinity of intestinal epithelium cells (IECs) to Wnt, thereby promoting activation of canonical Wnt signaling and facilitating regeneration of small intestinal crypts after epithelial injury.
