Application of Antrodia camphorata Promotes Rat’s Wound Healing In Vivo and Facilitates Fibroblast Cell Proliferation In Vitro

Figure 3

High magnification of histology of wound granulation tissue stained with hematoxylin and eosin, at day 14 after wounding in rats dressed with (a) 0.2 mL of vehicle, gum acacia, more inflammatory cells and less fibroblast and collagen; (b) 0.2 mL of Antrodia camphorata (100 mg/mL), remarkably less inflammatory cells and more fibroblast and collagen compared to vehicle; (c) 0.2 mL of Antrodia camphorata (200 mg/mL), remarkably less inflammatory cells and more fibroblast and collagen compared to vehicle; (d) 0.2 mL of Intrasite gel, remarkably more collagen fibers and fibroblasts, with less inflammatory cells compared to vehicle. IC = inflammatory cells (H&E stains, 100x magnification).
