Product Specs

Introduction

Hyaluronidase-1, also known as HYAL1, is a protein that belongs to the endolytic glycoside hydrolase family. In humans, there are five endo-β-N-acetylhexosaminidase enzymes, including HYAL1, HYAL2, and HYAL3. HYAL1 plays a crucial role in the breakdown of hyaluronic acid within the extracellular matrix of body tissues. It functions optimally in acidic environments and is the most prevalent hyaluronidase found in plasma. Genetic mutations affecting the HYAL1 gene can lead to mucopolysaccharidosis type IX and hyaluronidase deficiency.

Description

Recombinant human HYAL1, expressed in HEK cells, is a single-chain polypeptide with glycosylation. It consists of 420 amino acids (22-435 a.a) and has a molecular weight of 46.9 kDa. The HYAL1 protein includes a 6-amino acid His-tag at the C-terminus and is purified using proprietary chromatographic methods.

Physical Appearance
Clear, colorless solution that has been sterilized by filtration.
Formulation

The HYAL1 solution is supplied at a concentration of 0.25 mg/ml and contains 10% glycerol in phosphate-buffered saline (pH 7.4).

Stability
For short-term storage (up to 2-4 weeks), the HYAL1 solution should be kept at 4°C. For long-term storage, it is recommended to freeze the solution at -20°C. The addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is advisable for extended storage periods. It's important to avoid repeated freezing and thawing of the solution.
Purity

The purity of HYAL1 is determined by SDS-PAGE analysis and is greater than 90.0%.

Product Science Overview

Historical Context

The action of hyaluronidase was first described in 1936 and named in 1939 . Early research identified it as a “spreading factor” due to its ability to increase the permeability of connective tissue . This property has made hyaluronidase a valuable tool in medical and surgical settings for over 60 years, particularly for improving the diffusion of local anesthetics .

Mechanism of Action

Hyaluronidase is an enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of hyaluronic acid, a major component of the extracellular matrix . By hydrolyzing hyaluronic acid, hyaluronidase lowers its viscosity, thereby increasing tissue permeability . This action facilitates the absorption and dispersion of parenterally administered fluids, drugs, and contrast agents .

Production and Structure

The recombinant form of hyaluronidase is produced using CHO cells, which are genetically modified to express the enzyme. The enzyme itself is a protein with a molecular weight of approximately 61,000 Da . The recombinant version corresponds to the soluble fragment of human HYAL5 (PH20) .

Medical Uses

Hyaluronidase is used in various medical applications, including:

  • Subcutaneous Fluid Administration: It enhances the absorption of fluids for hydration .
  • Drug Dispersion: It increases the dispersion of other injectable drugs, making them more effective .
  • Radiopaque Agents: It improves the resorption of radiopaque agents in subcutaneous urography .
Regulatory Status

Hyaluronidase (Human Recombinant) was first used in prescription products in the United States on May 5, 2004 . It is approved for use in several countries and is available under various brand names, including Hylenex, HyQvia, and Vitrase .
