The endothelial glycocalyx is a hair-like surface layer mainly consisted of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) that includes heparan sulfate (HS), chondroitin sulfate (CS), and hyaluronic acid (HA) and its bearing core proteins (syndecan, glypican, and perlecan). This mini review presents the visualization and measurement techniques of the endothelial glycocalyx up to now, providing insight to the diagnosis, treatment, and protection of the cardiovascular disease.
