COMPARISON OF THE HEALING POTENTIAL OF PROPOLIS AND BEE VENOM ON SURGICALLY INDUCED WOUND IN RAT?S BUCCAL MUCOSA.
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Research (IJAR) - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 3
Abstract
Bee products include honey as well as propolis, royal jelly and venom which are used in medicine, not only as an immune system stimulant but also as a wound healing promoter. Aim of work: was to assess and compare the healing potential of propolis and bee venom on the healing wounds in rat?s buccal mucosa. Materials and Methods: Foutry five adult male Wistar albino rats divided into in 3 groups of 15 each (control, propolis & bee venom). A wound (3.5 mm diameter) was made in the cheek of each rat with a punch biopsy. Samples were prepared and investigated histopathologically and immunohistochemically by proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) after 1, 3 and 7 days of wounding. Results: Bee venom showed the highest healing potential followed by propolis through stimulated epithelial cells proliferation and reepithelization compared to the control group. Conclusion: Bee venom and Propolis had contributed positively to the wound healing in the surgically induced wounds of rat?s buccal mucosa.
