Efficacy of <i>Annona squamosa</i> L in the Synthesis of Glycosaminoglycans and Collagen during Wound Repair in Streptozotocin Induced Diabetic Rats

<table><i>In vitro</i> wound healing of HDF cells of control culture and<i> A. squamosa</i> treated (supplemented with 7.8–125 ppm) cultures. Proliferation of HDF cells was observed for 2 days after wound creation. The double headed black arrow shows the margin of scratched area on day 0 as initial wound (IW), and double headed white arrow shows the incomplete healing (IH), whereas white arrow shows the complete healing (CH).<i> A. squamosa</i> treatment shows complete healing on day 2, which clearly indicates that the<i> A. squamosa</i> accelerates the rate of proliferation faster in treated culture than the control.</table>
