ResumoThe healing process comprises a number of phases: inflammation, proliferation and maturation. Within these phases are many cellular and biochemical activities in which epithelial, endothelial and inflammatory cells, platelets and fibroblasts interact to restore ‘normality’ within the wound area. The processes by which these structures interact and support each other form a complex jigsaw, and the focus of this review is to look at one small piece of the puzzle — the role within proliferation of hyaluronic acid, or more correctly, hyaluronan.
