Phyllanthus emblica L. Enhances Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Wound Healing and Sprouting
Figure 2
Scratch wound assay. HUVEC wounds were created using pipette tips and the widths of wound areas were measured at the same positions at time 0, 24, and 48 h, after wounds were initiated. (a) PE (0.1–100 μg/mL) or ascorbic acid (ASC, 0.01–10 μg/mL) was incubated with endothelial wounds at time 0. (b) Representative photographs of wound closure at different time points. Dashed line and the wound areas were accentuated for visual purpose. The % wound confluence was calculated compared to vehicle treated group (CTRL). versus CTRL.
