Abstract
The authors of the accompanying classic paper from the Journal of Histochemistry and Cytochemistry (Evanko SP, Wight TN. Intracellular Localization of Hyaluronan in Proliferating Cells. Journal of Histochemistry & Cytochemistry. 1999;47[10]:1331-1341) comment on the impact and significance of their findings on the intracellular localization of hyaluronan in arterial smooth muscle cells using immunohistochemical techniques. These seminal findings signaled the potential for a role of hyaluronan in the functions of microtubules and mitosis.
