Figure 1.

Cryptomphalus aspersa egg extract (CAEE) exhibits potent wound-healing ability. (A) Representative images of “wounds” treated with various concentrations of the egg extract (CAEE) or “wounds” that have not been treated with the extract (NT), immediately after “wound” infliction (0 h) and 24 h post “wound” infliction (24 h). (B) Graph demonstrating “would healing” expressed as the percentage of original “wound” area closure after 24 h for “wounds” treated with various concentrations of the extract (CAEE) and “wounds” not treated with the extract (NT). Values shown are the means ± S.E. from three different experiments with WJ-MSCs derived from three different donors (n = 3) treated (CAEE) or untreated (NT). Asterisk marks statistical significance (p < 0.05) in all panels (* = p < 0.05, ** = p < 0.01, *** = p < 0.001).
