Conyza canadensis (L.) Cronquist (CCL) has been used by K’Ho minority in Bidoup Nui Ba national park, Lam Dong province, Vietnam as one of wound healing remedies. However, the scientific proof of treatment is still unclear. This study aimed to evaluate this wound healing potential of CCL. CCL power was extracted by ethanol and then partitioned consecutively with petroleum ether, ethyl acetate and water. Wound healing potential was evaluated by antibacterial activity, stimulation of fibroblast and keratinocyte proliferation. Agar-well diffusion was used in the antibacterial tests and the results showed that CCL had antibacterial activity against 02 dermatitis bacteria (Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus) and 02 opportunistic infection bacteria (Escherichia coli, Enterococcus faecalis). Moreover, our results illustrated that CCL stimulated the fibroblast and keratinocyte proliferation compared to the control. Particularly, the fibroblast division increased 1.6 times at 31.25 µg/mL when treated by ethanolic extract, while ethyl acetate fraction showed 1.7 times increase at 10 µg/mL in keratinocyte proliferation compared to the control. Taken together, our study contributed scientific base of CCL in the wound healing.

AbstractBackgroundDiabetic wound are the major problem of society because of its delay healing of wound in hyperglycemia patient. The target of this study need to know the gallic acid compelling synergistically wound healing in diabetic animals as it is available in fruit extract or is more effective in given pure form in diabetic animals.MethodsThe wound healing effects of fruit extract Terminalia bellerica Roxb. and gallic acid were evaluated in experimentally induced hyperglycemic animals. In this investigation, excision and dead space wound models were used. The contraction wound %, re-epithelialization days, area of scar, histopathological examination of tissue, hydroxyproline level and weight of tissue granuloma were evaluated in this study.ResultsTerminalia bellerica fruit extract (400 mg/Kg) and gallic acid (200 mg/Kg) have been ingested by orally in streptozotocin induced diabetic rats. They were founded significantly (p<0.05) improved percentage wound contraction and decreased the size of scar area and days of re-epithelialization in excision wound model. Also, they were improved the level of hydroxyproline level in diabetic rats as compared to diabetic control group in dead space wound model. Standard drug vitamin C was also founded significantly improved wound healing activity in rats. These results suggested that treated groups accelerated wound healing activity in diabetic rat.ConclusionsThe observations and results obtained in the present study indicated the wound healing efficacy of fruit ethanolic extract and gallic acid in diabetic animals. Yet, the wound healing effect was increasingly reported with gallic acid.

Proses penyembuhan luka kulit dipengaruhi oleh kondisi dibetes mellitus (DM). Ekstrak etanol daun binahong dilaporkan dapat mempercepat penyembuhan luka tikus diabetes melalui mekanisme reepitelisasi dan kolagenasi. Penelitian ini dilakukan untuk mengetahui gambaran penyembuhan luka diabetes fraksi etil asetat daun binahong (Anredera cordifolia (Ten.) Steenis) konsentrasi 10% dengan parameter jumlah sel fibroblast pada tikus yang diinduksi sterptozotocin. Metode fraksinasi yang digunakan fraksinasi bertingkat padat cair dengan pelarut etil asetat yang bersifat semipolar. Penelitian eksperimental menggunakan 20 ekor tikus Wistar jantan usia 2 bulan, berat badan antara 150-200 gram yang diinduksi streptozotocin (STZ) dosis tunggal 45 mg/kgBB i.p. Punch biopsy digunakan untuk membuat luka pada kulit tikus dengan diameter 5 mm setelah kadar glukosa darah (KGD) di atas 250 mg/dL. Hewan uji dibagi menjadi 4 kelompok, terdiri dari kontrol sehat (tanpa induksi STZ dan tanpa perlakuan), kontrol negatif (biocream), kontrol positif (madecassol), dan fraksi etil asetat daun binahong 10% (dalam biocream). Aplikasi topikal dilakukan 2 kali sehari sebanyak 25 mg selama 10 hari pada area luka dan sekitarnya. Pengamatan dilakukan secara makroskopis dan mikroskopis. Penelitian menunjukkan bahwa fraksi etil asetat daun binahong mengandung senyawa flavonoi dan tanin, serta berperan dalam meningkatkan jumlah sel fibroblast (P<0.05).   Wound healing process is affected by diabetes melitus condition. The ethanol extract of Binahong leaves has reported to have wound healing activity on diabetic rat through mechanism of re-epithelialization and collagenation. This study was conducted to evaluate the wound healing activity on diabetic rat of ethyl acetate fraction of  Binahong (Anredera cordifolia (Tenore) Steenis) leaves at concentration of 10% with parameters of fibroblast numbers in streptozozin induced rat.

Background: The prevalence of diabetes mellitus is increasing on a global trend. The aim of the present study is to identify the most effective antioxidants and hypoglycemic fraction of Azanza garckeana. Methods: The fractions (nhexane or ethyl-acetate or aqueous) of A. garckeana were administered to the alloxan-induced diabetic rats at doses of 100, 200, and 400 mg/kg for 15 days. Antioxidants activities were evaluated at concentrations of 62.5, 125, 250, and 500 µg/mL using the DPPH scavenging assay. Results: Results revealed that both the hexane, ethyl-acetate, and aqueous fractions exhibited hypoglycemic and antioxidants activities in a dose-dependent manner. The n-hexane fraction demonstrated highest percentage DPPH scavenging effect of 26.34±3.43, 38.44±4.35, 59.34±3.45, and 74.83±5.35 at 62.5, 125, 250, and 500 µg/mL respectively. The ethyl-acetate fraction demonstrated 19.33±2.98, 28.94±3.24, 47.34±2.90, and 57.82±4.54 respectively while the aqueous fraction exhibited the least activities of 12.45±23.45, 18.64±2.94, 27.94±3.89, and 39.43±3.89 at concentrations of 62.5, 125, 250, and 500 µg/mL respectively. In addition, the n-hexane fraction demonstrated the most significant hypoglycemic effect with the highest glucose reduction of 58.97 ±3.45 %, 63.86±5.35 %, and 66.51±4.35 %, ethyl acetate fraction demonstrated glucose reduction of 7.55±0.54%, 21.77±2.35 %, and 29.56±3.46 % while the aqueous fraction demonstrated the least hypoglycemic effect of 9.89±2.67 %, 18.09±3.45 %, and 18.87±3.24 at 100, 200 and 400 mg/kg bw respectively. Conclusion: The n-hexane fraction of Azanza garckeana extract could serve as a reservoir of bioactive agents that could be useful for the development of a new anti-diabetic agent

The aim of the present study was to explore the effect of wound healing activity of the whole plant of Momordica charantia Linn. in rats. The effect of aqueous ethanolic extract of Momordica charantia Linn. (Family; Cucurbetaceae) was evaluated on resutured incision, granuloma pouch and excision wound models in rats. The wound healing activity was measured by the rate of wound contraction, skin breaking strength, weight of the granulation tissue, and collagen content. The concentrated ethyl alcohol extract was subject to fractionation by using petroleum ether (40-60o V/V), solvent ether, ethyl acetate, butanol, butanone, ethanol and methanol in succession. All the fractions were screened for wound healing property. The results of pharmacological activity led to the conclusion that the petroleum ether fraction exhibited more significant wound healing promotion property followed by solvent ether and butanone, from all the parameters studied. Ethyl acetate, ethanol and methanol fractions were least effective.

The present study was aimed to evaluate the root extract fractions of Kyllinga triceps (KT) for their antidiabetic potential on streptozotocin induced diabetes in neonatal rats. Diabetes was induced by a single intraperitoneal injection of Streptozotocin (90mg/kg) to 48±2h old neonatal rats. Effect of root extract fractions (toluene, ethyl acetate, 1- butanol at 50 &100 mg/kg.) were tested for their antihyperglycemic activity by measuring their fasting blood glucose level in diabetic rats at 0,2,4,6,8,12 & 24 h after the treatment. In sub acute study ethyl acetate fraction of KT (EAKT) was administered daily to diabetic rats orally at a dose of 100mg/kg for 28 days. Body weight of the animals and blood glucose level were observed at weekly interval during the study. Cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin, SGPT, ALP, creatinine and total proteins level in serum were also estimated at the initial and after 28 days of the treatment. As the preliminary investigation conducted in our lab on methanolic extract of the roots of KT had showed significant oral glucose tolerance with 200 mg/kg in normal rats. Oral administration of fractions of the plant significantly reduced the fasting blood glucose level in diabetic rats. Among the fractions, EAKT was found to be more effective. Further, in sub-acute study, EAKT, showed a significant anti diabetic activity by reversal of the altered afore said serum biochemical parameters. The results of the study are substantiating the traditional claim of the roots of Kyllinga triceps in the treatment of diabetes with a scope for development of antidiabetic herbal drug from EAKT.   Key words: Antidiabetic activity; Kyllinga triceps; Ethyl acetate fraction; Streptozotocin.

Diabetic ulcers (DUs) are a chronic, non-healing diabetes complication that leads to high hospital expenses and, in extreme cases, to amputation. Peripheral vascular diseases, diabetic neuropathy, abnormal cellular and cytokine activity are among the major factors that hinder diabetic wound healing. DUs represent an important challenge in the development of new and efficient wound dressings. The extracellular matrix (ECM) has been effectively used as a scaffold for constructive remodeling of multiple tissues in animal and human. Sheep’s urinary bladder matrix was evaluated for its wound healing activity in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats using excision model. In this experiment, 48 male Sprague dawley rats weighing 220–250[Formula: see text]g were divided into four equal groups of control, vaseline, diabetics + (10[Formula: see text]mg/wound) and [Formula: see text] (50[Formula: see text]mg/wound). Diabetes was induced by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (45[Formula: see text]mg/kg B.W) solved in 0.05[Formula: see text]M citrate buffer. Seven days after confirming diabetes statue, skin wounds were created on the back of each rat. Rate of wound healing and histological assay using hematoxylin and Eosin staining (H&E) were used for evaluation of the wound healing in different groups. ECM treated animals exhibited significant improvement in both wound area and rate of wound healing when compared to controls ([Formula: see text]). The ECM treated wounds were found to epithelize faster as compared to controls. The sheep’s ECM promotes significant wound healing in male diabetic rats and further studies on this activity in animal models and humans are suggested.
