The effects of fraxetin and monnieriside A on Cultured L929 fibroblasts.

Skin lesions are considered a public health problem, compromising patients' quality of life. This work aimed to evaluate the effects of fraxetin and monnieriside A on Cultured L929 Fibroblasts through the scratch assay. Supernatants and cells from the fibroblast culture treated with the compounds were used to evaluate essential markers of the tissue repair process (IGF-1, VEGF, IL-8, IL-10, FGF-2, COL1A2, COL4A, PDGF) using ELISA and qRT-PCR. The results showed that fraxetin and MOA were non-cytotoxic and could stimulate cellular migration. Fraxetin induced IGF-1, VEGF, IL-8, and IL-10 expression, while MOA induced FGF2, COL1A2, and IL-10 expression. Altogether, these results set provides evidence that fraxetin and MOA have healing potential for tissue repair, paving the way for in vivo studies and clinical trials to validate the in vitro results.
