Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the inhibitory effect of asiaticoside on bleomycin-induced skin cicatrization. Methods Thirty male C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into three groups:negative control group,model control group,and asiaticoside group,ten in each group.In model control group and asiaticoside group,1 mg·mL-1bleomycin was subcutaneously injected into the dorsal skin of mice every day;4 h later,1 mL 0.9% sodium chloride solution 1 mL asiaticoside(20 mg·mL-1) was injected into the lesion skin in the model control group and the asiaticoside group,respectively.In the negative control group, the same volume of 0.9% sodium chloride solution was subcutaneously injected into the dorsal skin of the mice at the two time points every day.After 21 days,skin specimens were harvested to observe the histomorphology and detect myofibroblast proliferation and expression of inflammatory factors. Results The skin scar was significantly attenuated in the asiaticoside group as compared with the model control group,and the dermal thickness measured exhibited a gradual decrease in asiaticoside group.The expression of α-antismooth muscle antisbidy and infiltration of inflammatory cells were significantly lower in the asiaticoside group than in the model control group. Conclusion Asiaticoside inhibits the development of skin scar of mice by regulating proliferation and differentiation of myofibroblasts and down-regulating inflammatory cells.
