title: Hyaluronan research in Uppsala.
abstract: Studies of the polysaccharide hyaluronan (hyaluronic acid) started more than a century ago in Uppsala. This article describes the general development of hyaluronan research from an Uppsala point of view and is thus strongly biased. The readers are referred to other reviews for a more objective description of the history.
