The Brachymenium exile is the species of Bryaceae family, the family of bryophytes best represented in cerrado biome. The potential for biotechnological and biopharmaceutical applications of bryophytes have been investigated sharply. The aimed to investigate the cicatrizing potential of ethanolic extract of B. exile by scratch assay. The in vitro study was using the spreading and migration capabilities of fibroblast cell line using the extract of B. exile. the extract of B. exile allowed the cellular migration in 76% more that the control and not citotoxic assay in fibroblast cell line (3T3-L1). The extract of B. exile showed activity potential wound healing in vitro assay.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
