  1. 01AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In hyperglycemic rats with delayed healing, PL 14736 produced a dose-dependent acceleration of wound healing, equivalent at the highest doses to becaplermin.

    In plain wordsIn rats with high blood sugar, PL 14736 gel sped up wound healing, as much as becaplermin at the highest doses.

    Summary
    While healing was too rapid in healthy rats to observe enhancement by either treatment, in the hyperglycemic rats which exhibited delayed healing, PL 14736 (10-1,000 microg/wound) produced a dose-dependent acceleration of wound healing (determined by macroscopic scoring) equivalent at the highest do…

    Summary · context
    To investigate its possible benefit in poorly healing skin wounds, the effects of the topical application of PL 14736 in a gel formulation have been studied on full-thickness excisional wounds in rats, either healthy or made hyperglycemic by alloxan (175 mg/kg s.c.) 5 days previously.
  2. 02AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In healthy rats, healing was too rapid to observe enhancement by PL 14736 or becaplermin.

    In plain wordsIn healthy rats, wounds healed too fast to see any added benefit from PL 14736.

  3. 03AnimalAnimal study (in vivo)Efficacy outcome

    In hyperglycemic rats, the healing benefit of PL 14736, like becaplermin, was associated with increased deposition of organized granulation tissue by day 7.

    In plain wordsIn rats with high blood sugar, PL 14736 gel, like becaplermin, increased well-organized new repair tissue by day 7.

    Summary
    The beneficial effect on healing was associated with increased deposition of organized granulation tissue by day 7 for both PL 14736 and becaplermin, as determined histologically.
