چکیده

The ethyl acetate fraction from ethanolic extract of Wedelia trilobata (L.) leaves displayed wound healing properties. The ethyl acetate fraction was further subjected to bioassay-guided fractionation which afforded isolation of grandiflorenic acid which requires further investigation to prove its wound healing potential. The grandiflorenic acid from leaves of Wedelia trilobata was assessed for its possible activity on BJ human fibroblast and HaCaT keratinocytes proliferation, and effect on in vitro scratch assay, collagen content, TGF-2 levels, and nitric oxide, TNF- and IL-1 determination using Raw 264.7 cells. Grandiflorenic acid (2.5μg/mL) produced percentage viability of BJ human fibroblast, and HaCaT keratinocytes 116, and 106% respectively. Grandiflorenic acid (2.5 μg/mL) induced a 100% migration rate in the in vitro scratch assay and the collagen content was increased to 171.2 μg/mL compared to the control (61.1μg/mL) with BJ human fibroblast. Grandiflorenic acid (2.5μg/mL) neither produced any significant increase in TGF-2 levels of HaCaT keratinocytes cells nor induced migration of HaCaT cells in the in vitro scratch assay. The present study provides scientific evidence that grandiflorenic acid has potential wound healing activity due to combination of fibroblast stimulation and inhibiting prolonging inflammatory phase of wound healing evident by reduced levels of inflammatory cytokines from macrophage Raw 264.7 cells.

Antimicrobial Diterpenoids of Wedelia trilobata (L.) Hitchc.

Continued interest in the metabolites of Wedelia trilobata (L.) Hitchc, a notoriously invasive weed in South China, led to the isolation of twenty-six ent-kaurane diterpenoids, including seven new ones 1-7. Their structures and relative configuration were elucidated on the basis of extensive spectroscopic analysis, including 1D- and 2D-NMR experiments. The antimicrobial activities of all isolat...
