Collagen-based wound dressing: effects of hyaluronic acid and fibronectin on wound healing. 1986

C J Doillon, and F H Silver

Our previous studies have shown that a collagen-based wound dressing induces the spatial deposition of wound tissue. This study was conducted to determine the effects of hyaluronic acid and fibronectin on wound healing. These macromolecules play an important role in wound healing, embryonic development and cellular migration in vitro. The effects of the addition of varying levels of fibronectin and hyaluronate to a collagen sponge were studied. Low levels of both hyaluronate and fibronectin modified the structure of the implant, and resulted in increased chemoattraction, replication and collagen deposition in an in vivo wound healing model.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008855 Microscopy, Electron, Scanning Microscopy in which the object is examined directly by an electron beam scanning the specimen point-by-point. The image is constructed by detecting the products of specimen interactions that are projected above the plane of the sample, such as backscattered electrons. Although SCANNING TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY also scans the specimen point by point with the electron beam, the image is constructed by detecting the electrons, or their interaction products that are transmitted through the sample plane, so that is a form of TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY.

D005347 Fibroblasts Connective tissue cells which secrete an extracellular matrix rich in collagen and other macromolecules. Fibroblast
D005353 Fibronectins Glycoproteins found on the surfaces of cells, particularly in fibrillar structures. The proteins are lost or reduced when these cells undergo viral or chemical transformation. They are highly susceptible to proteolysis and are substrates for activated blood coagulation factor VIII. The forms present in plasma are called cold-insoluble globulins.
