RESUMEN
@#ss of wound healing after administration ofmitomycin-C, which inhibits granulation tissue formationand collagen synthesis, resulting in chronic wounds. Thevitreous gel of cow eyeballs contains a high level ofhyaluronic acid, which has a role in inflammation,granulation, re-epithelialization, and remodelling. This studyaims to understand the effect of 1% povidone iodine andvitreous gel of cow eyeballs on wound healing afteradministration of mitomycin-C.Methods: This was an invivostudy with quasi-experimentalmethods on 32 Wistar mice. Full-thickness wounds weremade and then treated with mitomicyn-C. The mice weredivided into 4 groups: a control group with NaCl 0.9%vitreous gel of cow eyeball (VGCE), 1% povidone-iodine, anda combination of VGCE and 1% povidone-iodine groups.Macroscopic and microscopic observations of the processof wound healing were performed on days 3, 7, and 14.Results: Vitreous gel administration produced significantwound healing rates within the first three days, andhistological analysis revealed an increased number offibroblasts and polymorphonuclear cells. However, thepovidone iodine group and the combination group withvitreous gel did not produce significant results.Conclusion: The single administration of VGCE canaccelerate the wound healing process, increase the numberof fibroblasts, and reduce inflammation in a chronic woundmodel.
RESUMEN
To determine whether platelet-rich fibrin lysate (PRF-L) could restore the function of chronically ultraviolet-A (UVA)-irradiated human dermal fibroblasts (HDFs), we isolated and sub-cultured HDFs from six different human foreskins. HDFs were divided into two groups: those that received chronic UVA irradiation (total dosages of 10 J cm-2) and those that were not irradiated. We compared the proliferation rates, collagen deposition, and migration rates between the groups and between chronically UVA-irradiated HDFs in control and PRF-L-treated media. Our experiment showed that chronic UVA irradiation significantly decreased (p<0.05) the proliferation rates, migration rates, and collagen deposition of HDFs, compared to controls. Compared to control media, chronically UVA-irradiated HDFs in 50% PRF-L had significantly increased proliferation rates, migration rates, and collagen deposition (p<0.05), and the migration rates and collagen deposition of chronically UVA-irradiated HDFs in 50% PRF-L were equal to those of normal fibroblasts. Based on this experiment, we concluded that PRF-L is a good candidate material for treating UVA-induced photoaging of skin, although the best method for its clinical application remains to be determined.
