Objective: This research aimed to evaluate the effect of fractionation of Merremia mammosa Lour. (Mm (Lour.)) extract on diabetic wound healing by observing collagen synthesis process and to search the most potent fraction.Methods: Wistar rats were divided into five groups (n=5), i.e., K-(negative control), K+ (positive control), K1 (ethyl acetate fraction), K2 (water fraction), and K3 (n-hexane fraction). The Mm (Lour.) was extracted with ethanol 70%, then fractionated by using three solvents which have different polarity. The rats were adapted in 7 days, then induced into diabetic by streptozotocin dose 40mg/kg body weight. The wound was made by Morton excision method. Treatment was given every two days and skin biopsy was done on day 11. Analysis of collagen density was done by photomicrograph of histopathology preparations in Masson’s trichome stained by using trinocular microscope with 400x magnification in 6 fields of view, then processed by imageJ software and analyzed by appropriate statistic tool.Result: The results of this research showed that fractionation of Mm (Lour.) extract significantly enhanced diabetic wound healing based on macroscopic (percentage of wound healing) and collagen density with p-value<0.05 when compared with negative control, especially the water fraction (p=0.000). The follow up post hoc analysis showed that there was no­ significant (p=0.989) or there was no meaningful difference in the group of water fraction when compared to positive control.Conclusion: Water fraction is the extract fraction of Mm (Lour.) which has the most significant influence on diabetic wound healing showed by enhancement of collagen synthesis.

Background: This study evaluated the potential of Ziziphus abysinnica root extract in managing hyperglycaemia in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), diabetic wound healing and diabetic nephropathy. Methodology: Blood glucose concentrations were measured daily for 14 days after daily administrations of either Ziziphus abysinnica (30, 100, and 300 mg/kg, p.o), metformin (300 mg/kg, p.o) or normal saline as negative control before diabetes induction using a single dose of Streptozotocin (60 mg/kg, i.p) and nicotinamide (120 mg/kg, i.p). Histopathological analysis was performed on the harvested kidneys following administration with Ziziphus abysinnica in diabetic rats. The diabetic wound healing potentials of the plant was also evaluated in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rats by treating them with 15%w/w ZAE ointment. Results: Generally, the percentage of blood glucose levels analysed following administration of drugs were found to be dose-dependent. The highest dose of ZAE (300 mg/kg) had a higher percentage reduction in blood glucose concentration when compared to metformin (300 mg/kg).  The lowest dose (30 mg/kg) of ZAE administered attenuated STZ induced pathological damage and showed moderate to maximal improvement to the kidney nephrons. In contrast, the 100 mg/kg and 300 mg/kg dose ZAE demonstrated minimal pathological changes to the kidney architecture. Conclusion: Overall, our study demonstrated the antidiabetic potential of Ziziphus abysinnica, suggesting its possible therapeutic benefit in diabetic wound healing and diabetic nephropathy.

Background: Centella asiatica L. Urban is a tropical plant whose spread is quite broad as Indonesia. One of the ingredients of Centella asiatica L. Urban is asiaticoside which has excellent wound healing abilities. However, research on diabetic wound healing with Centella asiatica L. Urban extract formulation in the form of a gel has not been found. Therefore, it is necessary to look at the healing activity of diabetic wounds using Centella asiatica L. Urban extract in the form of a gel.Objective: This experimental study aims to explore the effect of gel extract derived from the Centella asiatica L. Urban on the length of time for wound healing.Methods: The subjects in this study were eight weeks old Balb-C mice conditioned to hyperglycemia and were divided into five groups. The Centella asiatica L. Urban extract is provided in three concentration levels, with 3%, 5%, and 7%. As a form of negative control, used gel without Centella asiatica L. Urban extract and positive control without gel, only hydrocolloid dressing.Results: Centella asiatica L. Urban at concentrations of 3% (with the value of Sig. > 0.05), 5%, and 7% showed the ability to heal wounds.Conclusions: Centella asiatica L. Urban gel extract with a concentration of 3% had a significant effect on wound healing compared to other preparations.

Aim: To develop an effective strategy for increasing angiogenesis at diabetic wound sites and thereby accelerating wound healing. Materials & methods: A micropatterned nanofibrous scaffold with bioglass nanoparticles encapsulated inside coaxial fibers was prepared by electrospinning. Results: Si ions could be released in a sustained manner from the scaffolds. The hierarchical micro-/nano-structure of the scaffold was found to act as a temporary extracellular matrix to promote endothelial cell adhesion and growth. The scaffold greatly improved angiogenesis and collagen deposition at the wound site, which shortened the healing period of diabetic wounds. Conclusion: This study provides a promising therapeutic option for chronic diabetic wounds with improved angiogenesis.
