Abstract

Objective By detecting the influence of hydroxyproline on collagen metabolism of wound healing of rabbit ear to investigate the inhibition effect of hyaluronic acid on scar proliferation. Methods Wound healing model were made on the ears of 18 rabbits. They were randomly divided into 2%HA treated-group(group A), 1%HA treated-group(group B) and normal saline treated-group(group C). The wound area skin was obtained at different days after operation. Tissue hydroxyproline was detected. Data was analyzed statisticaly. Results The hydroxyproline content in group A and B were lower than group C (P0.01). The difference between group A and B was also prominent (P0.05). Conclusion Hyaluronic acid can inhibit the collagen synthesis. The dependence relationship between effect and dosage is notable.
