Wound healing properties of swietenia mahagoni seed extracted using scco2: an in vitro study
Hartati1, Liza Md Salleh2, Idris, Irma Suryani3, Azis, Andi Asmawati4.
Swietenia mahagoni seed has been traditionally used as a wound healing
agent. The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro healing properties of
Swietenia mahagoni seed extract. A supercritical carbon dioxide (SCCO2)
extract of Swietenia mahagoni seeds was tested regarding its ability to
stimulate the growth of human skin fibroblasts (HSF 1184) in vitro using the
colorimetric methylthiazol tetrazolium (MTT) assay and scratch assay in a
selected range of extract concentrations. The results show that the Swietenia
mahagoni seed extract at a concentration of 0.01 mg/mL was able to
stimulate the growth of human skin fibroblasts. The scratch assay showed that
all of the extracts led to a significantly higher percentage of wound closure
compared to the control. The wound healing capabilities of Swietenia
mahagoni seed extract may be due to its fibroblast stimulation activity, which
may promote repair of the wounded dermis. Thus, it may serve as a good
herbal component to incorporate into products designed to promote wound
healing.
