Extracellular matrix: As a component of the extracellular matrix, hyaluronan is used in the synthesis of biological scaffolds for wound-healing applications. These scaffolds typically have proteins such as fibronectin attached to the hyaluronan to facilitate cell migration into the wound. Collagen production due to hyaluronic acid has been reported. http://archderm.jamanetwork.com/article.aspx?articleid=411242
