    10. Fibroblasts migrate into the wound and divide in response to macrophage Platelet Derived Growth Factor (PDGF). New extra cellular matrix (ECM) is formed by fibroblasts. ECM comprises collagen, elastin, glycoproteins, proteoglycans and glygosaminoglycans Collagenase (an Matrix Metaloprotease) is produced by fibroblasts to remodel ECM The new ECM forms a scaffold into which capillaries can grow. The new capillary growth is stimulated by growth factors (19 known growth factors) from macrophages, fibroblasts, neutrophils, mast cells, keratinocytes and platelets.
