We previously found that a covalent complex of SHAPs (serum-derived hyaluronan-associated proteins), the heavy chains of inter-α-trypsin inhibitor family molecules, with hyaluronan (HA) is accumulated in synovial fluid of patients with rheumatoid arthritis, and the complex is circulated in patient p...
