title: Suppression of ischemic edema in mice by manganese-hyaluronate conjugate.
abstract: Manganese-hyaluronate conjugate (Mn-HA) was synthesized from a diethylenetriaminepenta-acetic acid derivative of hyaluronic acid and manganese ion. The conjugate markedly scavenged super-oxide anion in vitro and exhibited much higher anti-inflammatory activity than superoxide dismutase in suppressing paw edema in mice when intravenously injected 30 min before the initiation of ischemia.
