Abstract

The effects of four indigenous plant extracts were studied for their wound healing properties, both on normal and steroid-depressed healing. The herbals not only promoted healing but were also able to overcome steroid- depressed healing. The increased lysyl oxidase activity induced by these plant preparations could be responsible for their wound healing activity. The increased nucleic acid levels indicate that the action may be at cellular level.
