Although SPARC has been postulated to be involved in wound healing due to its elevated expression in fibroblasts and macrophages at wound sites [ 18 ] , our results are the first to demonstrate that SPARC indeed plays a role in wound repair and that it does so by promoting granulation tissue formation through modulation of fibroblast migration.
SPARC can increase endothelial permeability and is known to participate in tumor angiogenesis and extravasation [ 17].
However, since SPARC is a matricellular protein involved in cell-matrix interaction [ 3 4 23 ] , cell-matrix interaction-related defects may exert a significant influence in large wounds of SPARC-null mice causing premature loss of a part of the scabs and of the neoepidermis, a pathophysiological process requiring repeated healing.
The mechanism by which SPARC influences cell migration is not known.
