Extracellular UDP-Glucose Activates P2Y(14) Receptor and Induces Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3) Tyr(705) Phosphorylation and Binding to Hyaluronan Synthase 2 (HAS2) Promoter, Stimulating Hyaluronan Synthesis of Keratinocytes

Hyaluronan, a major matrix molecule in epidermis, is often increased by stimuli that enhance keratinocyte proliferation and migration. We found that small amounts of UDP-sugars were released from keratinocytes and that UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc) added into keratinocyte cultures induced a specific, rapid...
