Abstract
Aim
The aim of this study is to assess the effects of triester glycerol oxide (TGO) on cutaneous wound epithelization process.
Material and methods
Fifty-four male Wistar rats were divided into 2 groups of 27 rats each: control(C) and TGO (PX). The groups have been divided into three subgroups which included nine rats each regarding the wound excision on the 3rd, 7th, and 10th days, respectively. The specimens were evaluated according to histological properties and hydroxyproline levels.
Results
Seventh day examination showed that PX and control groups present the same score. HP levels in the control group were significantly lower compared to PX groups.
Conclusion
TGO have positive effects on wound epithelization process by increased collagen synthesis.
