Background: Mangosteen peel (Garcinia mangostana)L., binahong leaf (Anredera cordifolia (Ten.)), and centella herb (Centella asiatica) have been shown to have activity in each phase of burn healing process. Formulating these three plants extract into cold cream preparations is expected to increase the healing activity of burns. Objective: This study aimed to prove the efficacy of the cold cream combination of these plants by examining in vivo burn healing activity using a deep second-degree burn rat model. Materials and Methods: Rat were divided into nine experimental groups (normal, saline solution, silver sulfadiazine, cold cream base, each extract, combination of three extracts, and coldcream combination of three extracts). The burn activity was assessed by inflammatory cell, agiogenesis and collagen formation through histopathological examination. Results: Cold cream combination of mangosteen peel, binahong leaf, and centella herb enhanced the burn wound healing as indicated by progressive improvement in wound healing during 21 days after treatment. Histological result showed that coldcream combination group can reduced inflammatory cell infiltration and increased collagen significantly (p ≤ 0.05), in the other hand same as normal control, but has no effect on angiogenesis. Conclusion: Based on these results, cold cream combination of mangosteen peel, binahong leaf, and centella herb enhanced has a potential effect as an burn healing agent.

The wound is a break in the integrity of the skin produced by injury, illness, or operation. Wound healing is an essential dynamic biological/physiological process that occurs in response to tissue damage. The huge health, economic, and social effects of wounds on patients and societies necessitate the research to find novel potential therapeutic agents in order to promote wound healing. Postbiotics, the newest member of the biotics family, are valuable functional bioactive substances produced by probiotics through their metabolic activity, which have several beneficial properties, including immunomodulatory, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and angiogenesis characteristics, resulting in acceleration of wound healing. In the current study, three topical cold cream formulations containing postbiotics obtained from Lactobacillus fermentum, Lactobacillus reuteri, or Bacillus subtilis sp. natto probiotic strains were prepared. The effectiveness and wound healing activity of the developed postbiotics cold cream formulations were investigated compared to cold cream without postbiotics and no treatment via wound closure investigation, hydroxyproline content assay, and histological assessment in 25 Sprague Dawley rats divided into five groups. Interestingly, analysis of the results revealed that all three formulations containing postbiotics significantly accelerated the wound healing process. However, in general, the Bacillus subtilis natto cold cream manifested a better wound healing property. The pleasing wound healing characteristics of the topical postbiotics cold creams through the in vivo experiment suggest that formulations containing postbiotics can be considered as a promising nominee for wound healing approaches.

Phytoterapic compounds have been used in wound healing for many centuries. Nowadays, scientific evidences of phytotherapeutics is a requirement of the legislation. The scientific literature notes the need for healing topics yielding scars that are both aesthetically appealing and resistant. We aimed to evaluate the cytotoxicity of several doses of T. aestivum extract (2 mg mL-1, 4 mg mL-1, 6 mg mL-1, 8 mg mL-1 and 10 mg mL-1) in a fibroblast cell line and the healing process in an in vivo experimental model (New Zealand rabbits). For this, MTT test in 3T6 cells was performed in duplicates using MEM (0 mg ml-1) as negative control. Cell viability was calculated as: absorbance average in treatments/absorbance average in controls x 100. In vivo test was performed in 78 skin wounds in rabbits that were treated with 2 mg ml-1and 10 mg ml-1 of T. aestivum and non-ionic cream for 21 days. After this period, it was evaluated the histology using picrosorius and Gomori’s trichrome staining. Statistical analysis was evaluated using T test (Graphpad) for cytotoxicity assay, Fischer test for the gomori trichrome test (Grahpad) and Kruskal-Wallis (Statistic 9.0) for picrosirius test. The in vitro test resulted in cytotoxicity observed at 2mg mL-1 whereas cells were viable at higher doses. On the other hand, it was observed that collagen formation of wounds was more uniform with this dose than with 10mg mL-1 extract in the in vivo study. Thus, we conclude that the 2mg mL-1 T. aestivum aqueous extract dose was more efficient in the in vivo wound healing study, despite its cytotoxic effects in vitro.

Centella asiatica has been included in Thai traditional medicinal plants and recipes, as a well-established historical use as a vegetable and tonic. However, when applied in modern formulations, the progressive degradation of the plant pigments occurs, causing color-fading and color variation in the products. Depigmentation of the comminuted sample using supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) fluid extraction with a cosolvent was introduced as a pretreatment to solve the color-fading problem. The contents of compounds with known biological activities and the wound healing activities (antioxidant screening by DPPH and ABTS+ scavenging activities; cell migration assay; matrix metallopeptidase [MMP]-2 inhibition on human skin fibroblast; endothelial cell tube formation assay) of the C. asiatica leaf extracts obtained by conventional ethanolic extraction (CV) and pretreatment using scCO2 extraction, were determined. Total triterpenoids (madecassoside, asiaticoside B, asiaticoside, madecassic acid, terminolic acid and asiatic acid) and total triterpenoid glucosides (madecassoside, asiaticoside B and asiaticoside) were notably more abundant in the extract that had been pretreated using scCO2 than the extract obtained by CV. Moreover, the scCO2 pretreatment not only caused greater relative MMP-2 inhibition (58.48 ± 7.50% of the control), but also exhibited a higher cell migration (59.83 ± 1.85% of the initial) and number of vessels (18.25 ± 4.58) of angiogenesis in the wound healing process. Additionally, positive correlations were observed between the DPPH antioxidant activity and madecassoside content (r = 0.914, p < 0.01), as well as between the cell migration activity and asiaticoside content (r = 0.854, p < 0.05). It can be concluded that the scCO2 pretreatment of C. asiatica can eliminate color pigments from the extract and improve its in vitro wound healing activity.

Burns are one of the health problems in modern society that are associated with tissue damage that is difficult to repair and affect patients, both physically and psychologically. This study was conducted to evaluate the potential of epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG ) ointment to the healing process of second degree skin burn induced by attaching 85ºC plate with 1 cm of diameter for 5 second on the skin of albino rat (Rattus norvegicus). Twenty-five rats were divided into 5 treatment groups. The P0 group was a group of rat that suffered burns and were treated with ointment base (PEG). The P1 group was a group of rat that suffered burns and were given standard therapy with silver sulfadiazine. P2, P3 and P4 groups are groups of rat that have burns and are treated with EGCG ointments with concentrations of 1%, 2%, and 4% respectively. At the end of the study, skin tissue excision was carried out to make histopathological preparations using HE staining. Evaluation of histopathological preparations was carried out on reepithelialization collagen deposition, PMN infiltration, and angiogenesis. The results of the study in group P4 showed that the highest collagen formation and re-epithelialization process was accompanied by a marked decrease in the inflammatory process and angiogenesis. This condition is significantly different from groups P0, P1, P2, and P3. Healing second degree burns with 4% EGCG is better than other treatmentJurnal Veteriner Maret 2019 Vol. 1 No. 1 : 1-7 pISSN: 1411-8327; eISSN: 2477-5665 DOI: 10.19087/jveteriner.2019.20.1.1 Terakreditasi Nasional, Dirjen Penguatan Riset dan Pengembangan, online pada http://ojs.unud.ac.id/index.php/jvet Kemenristek Dikti RI S.K. No. 36a/E/KPT/20162Proses kesembuhan luka bakar merupakan fenomena kompleks untuk mengembalikan kontinuitas jaringan dan fungsinya. Kesembuhan luka melibatkan beberapa fase yang berbeda dan saling tumpang tindih, yaitu fase inflamasi, granulasi, fibrogenesis, neo-vaskularisasi, kontraksi luka dan epithelialisasi (Robson, 1997). Penatalaksanaan luka bakar yang efektif memerlukan pemahaman proses kesembuhan luka normal dan mampu memilih intervensi yang tepat untuk mengoptimalkan proses kesembuhan luka (Snyder, 2005). Pada proses kesembuhan luka, inflamasi terjadi segera setelah jejas, diawali dengan vasokonstriksi yang berperan dalam proses hemostasis dan pelepasan mediator inflamasi. Fase proliferasi ditandai dengan terbentuknya jaringan granulasi oleh fibroblas dan proses angiogenesis. Reformulasi dan perbaikan kompartemen serabut kolagen yang disertai dengan penigkatan tensile strength menandai fase remodeling (Varoglu et al., 2010). Faktor yang memiliki peran penting pada tertundanya proses kesembuhan luka antara lain, trauma berulang, perfusi dan oksigenasi yang buruk serta inflamasi yang berlebihan (Harding et al., 2003)). Penggunaan bahan alamiah untuk pengobatan luka merupakan bagian penting dari penatalaksanaan kesehatan dan metode baik untuk menyediakan pilihan layanan kesehatan yang murah dan efektif (Gurung et al., 2009; Suntar et al., 2010). Beberapa penelitian menggunakan polifenol yang berasal dari teh hijau sebagai penyembuh alami sebagai agen anti penuaan, antiinflamasi, antikanker, antioksidan dan antidiabetes (Obaid et al., 2011). Beberapa penelitian dengan menggunakan Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), sebagai salah satu polifenol yang terkandung dalamteh hijau, membuktikan sejumlah efek biologis EGCG sebagai antioksidan, antimikrob, antiinflamasi, antialergi dan antineoplastik yang aktif (Hosnuter et al., 2015). Teh hijau memiliki manfaat yang beragam, antara lain mencegah kanker, meningkatkan kesehatan jantung dan pembuluh darah, melindungi kulit dari kerusakan yang disebabkan karena radiasi dan penyebab yang lain. Manfaat ini disebabkan karena the hijau yang mengandung EGCG memiliki aktivitas antioksidan, antiinflamasi dan antibakteri yang cukup kuat. Berdasarkan hal tersebut, tidak menutup kemungkinan bahwa EGCG dapat membantu percepatan proses kesembuhan luka bakar pada kulit (Nagle et al., 2006). Berdasarkan uraian tersebut, penelitian ini dilaksanakan untuk melihat pengaruh pemberian salep EGCG terhadap proses kesembuhan luka bakar pada tikus putih (Rattus norvegicus) jantan.METODE PENELITIAN Kelayakan Etik Penelitian ini dilaksanakan setelah mendapatkan persetujuan dari komisi etik Fakultas Kedokteran Hewan, Universitas Airlangga. Tempat Penelitian Penelitian ini dilakukan di Laboratorium Hewan Percobaan di Fakultas Kedokteran Universitas Airlangga, Surabaya. Persiapan dan pembuatan salep dilakukan di Fakultas Farmasi, Universitas Airlangga. Pembuatan dan pemeriksaan preparat histopatologis dilakukan di Laboratorium Patologi Anatomi, Fakultas Kedokteran Hewan, Universitas Airlangga. Hewan Eksperimental Sebanyak 25 ekor tikus putih (Rattus norvegicus) jantan, umur tiga bulan dengangroups. This is presumably because the compounds contained therein have antioxidant activity, antiinflammatory and antibacterial. These three activities will synergize in the process of healing wounds. Provision of 4% EGCG ointment for 14 days in second degree burns can accelerate the wound healing process which is characterized by improved re-epithelialization, collagen deposition, PMN infiltration in the wound area, and angiogenesis.

The fruiting branches ofColutea cilicicaBoiss. & Bal., along with leaves and fruits, have been used to heal inflammatory wounds at traditional medicine in various parts of Turkey. In order to evaluate the wound healing activity of the plant, aqueous extracts were prepared from the flowering parts and fruits ofColutea cilicicaBoiss. & Bal. by using 40°C distilled water. Incision wound healing models by using tensiometer on rats and excision wound healing models on mice were employed to assess the activity. Significant wound healing activity was observed when ointment formulation of the aqueous extract at 1% concentration was applied on the mentioned models. The fruit extract treated the groups of animals, showing a 78.1% contraction in wounds, which was close to the contraction value of the reference drug Madecassol (100%). On the other hand, the same extract used on the incision wound model demonstrated a significant increase (42%) in wound tensile strength, compared to the flowering aerial parts. Histopathological examination also supported the results shown in both the incision and excision wound models. The wound healing effect was evaluated and compared with the reference ointment Madecassol. Moreover, zinc and vitamin C levels in the fruit (9480 ± 0 mcg g−1; 389 mg g−1) and flowering aerial part (6609 ± 1 mcg g−1; 404 mg g−1) extracts, which might have contributed to the wound healing process, were determined. The experimental data confirmed the traditional usage ofC. cilicicaBoiss.& Bal.
