Wound-Healing Activity and Phytochemical Screening of Purified Fractions of Crassulaceae Leaves on HCT 116 Cells

A Common Succulent Provides Wound Healing Benefits

In Summary

A recent study has found that Sempervivum tectorum L. (Crassulaceae), a common succulent, has wound healing properties. During testing, it was demonstrated that an extract of the succulent, known to be rich in flavonoids, enhanced cellular proliferation and migration, proving its therapeutic benefit. The authors have suggested that a topical treatment made from the extract would be an efficient delivery method.
