Definitions
- the present invention relates to the use of rhamnolipids in re-epithelization of mucosa, particularly in wound healing with the diminution of fibrosis, most particularly in the wound healing of mucous membranes, the treatment and prevention of gum disease such as gingivitis and for periodontal regeneration.
- Dermis is the location of the scar in adult wounds. As healing progresses, dermal collagen is deposited and sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAG) replace non-sulfated GAG in which hyaluronic acid (HA) is predominant.
- GAG glycosaminoglycans
- Fetal tissue appears to be intrinsic in repair, with reduction of fibrosis, and the major fetal cell type responsible for such repair may be the fetal fibroblast.
- the fetal immune system is functionally immature relative to the adult immune system and plays a much less prominent role in fetal wound healing.
- the fetal extracellular matrix differs from that in adults in having HA, collagen, elastin, and adhesion glycoproteins as the major components. It has been shown that hyaluronic acid levels in both fetal and adult sheep wounds rapidly increase until three days after wounding. This elevated level persists at least 21 days after wounding in the fetus, whereas it rapidly returns to baseline in the adult. In adult wounds, HA is deposited briefly within a fibrin and platelet plug. The HA is removed by hyaluronidase, and this provisional matrix is replaced by collagen and sulfated glycosaminoglycans.
- the deposition of collagen in fetal wounds is in a highly organized pattern that is indistinguishable from unwounded fetal dermis.
- Some of the major differences between fetal and adult repair are the temporal patterns of adhesion glycoproteins present in the wound, which are seen at the earliest stage of repair. Those differences may lead to differences in cell mobility, migration, adhesion and proliferation.
- TGF-beta Transforming growth factor-beta
- TGF-beta Transforming growth factor-beta
- DTH chronic delayed type hypersensitivity
- cytokines are augmented by the actions of macrophage-derived polypeptide growth factors.
- Platelet-derived growth factor produced by activated macrophages, is a potent stimulator of fibroblast proliferation, whereas macrophage-derived growth factor (TGF- beta) augments collagen synthesis.
- TGF- beta macrophage-derived growth factor
- Macrophage secretion of fibroblast growth factor causes endothelial cell migration and proliferation, leading to new blood vessel formation.
- the consequence of these slow actions of cytokines and growth factors is that prolonged activation of macrophages in a tissue, e. g., in the setting of chronic antigenic stimulation, leads to the replacement of differentiated tissues by fibrous tissue. Fibrosis is the outcome of chronic DTH, when elimination of antigen and rapid resolution are unsuccessful.
- one object of the present invention is to provide a method for re- epithelization of skin for providing wound healing with reduced fibrosis using rhamnolipids as the active agent.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide a method for the treatment of gum disease using the rhamnolipids as the active agent.
- a further object of the present invention is to provide a method for providing periodontal regeneration.
- rhamnolipids can provide the above noted treatments, particularly wound healing with reduced fibrosis, treatment of gum disease, particularly gingivitis and periodontal regeneration.

- R 6 lower alkyl, preferably -CH 3 .
- the rhamnolipids of the present invention can be prepared by conventional methods, preferably by fermentation, isolation and purification as described in U.S. Patent 5,455,232; 5,466,675 and 5,514,661, as well as BE 1005704A4, CA 2,129,542, JP 5-512946 and EP 93914523.1, each of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
- Various uses of rhamnolipids are also provided in these patents and PCT application PCT US/03714, also hereby incorporated by reference.
- the rhamnolipid that is preferred has the structure of formula:
- BAC-3 ( ⁇ -L-rhamnopyranosyl-(l,2)- ⁇ -L-rhamnopyranosyl)-3-hyroxydecanoyl-3-hydroxydecanoic acid; hereafter referred to as "BAC-3")

- the toxicity and the efficacy of these compounds can be further modified by varying the R groups as needed.
- rhamnolipids are effective in re-epithelization of the skin. This is important as it provides a method for wound healing with reduced fibrosis in non-fetal tissue.
- the re-epithelization can be induced in various tissues, particularly mucous membranes. This is especially important in the treatment of gum disease, such as gingivitis. It is also important in periodontal regeneration.
- Wound healing with diminished fibrosis is the main characteristic of fetuses.
- responsible factors in fetuses are: 1. Fetal dermis; 2. Fetal tissue; 3. The fetal immune system; and 4. The fetal extracellular matrix (ECM).
- ECM fetal extracellular matrix
- the method for wound healing with reduced fibrosis comprises administering to the wound, and optionally the surrounding area, an effective amount of a composition comprising one or more rhamnolipids of the present invention.
- the rhamnolipid used in the method is the BAC-3 rhamnolipid described above.
- the composition comprising the rhamnolipid can be in the form of neat liquid, solution, suspension, dispersion, emulsion, cream, tincture, powder, ointment, gel, paste or lotion.
- the solvent is preferably a polar organic solvent such as ethanol, DMSO or any polar organic solvent that is physiologically compatible.
- the composition is in an ointment, gel, paste or liquid.
- the amount of rhamnolipid used in the treatment is 0.001% in the ointment up to 5% in the ointment, preferably from 0.01 to 1% in ointment, more preferably from 0.05 to 0.5% in ointment. (Unless otherwise indicated, all percentages are % by weight, based on total weight of the composition.)
- the ointment is applied directly to the subject area 1-5 times daily, preferably 2-3 times daily for a period of 1 day to 6 weeks, or until healing is complete.
- the present rhamnolipids can be used to treat burn shock.
- the same rhamnolipids useful for wound healing also appear to have an effect on cytokine production. It is believed that the main responsibility for wound healing lies in production of cytokines which are also responsible for shock, following large burns. These rhamnolipids are believed to prevent or reduce cytokine production. This reduction or prevention of cytokine production would have a beneficial impact in burn shock prevention.
- the treatment method can be either I.V./I.P. or orally.
- the amount to be administered is from 1 ⁇ g/kg body weight of the patient to 50 ⁇ g/kg of body weight, preferably from 10 ⁇ g/kg to 30 ⁇ g/kg, from 1 to 4 times daily, preferably from 2 to 3 times daily, and for a period of from 1 day to 6 weeks.
- the composition comprising the rhamnolipid(s) can be in any conventional orally administrable form, including but not limited to, solutions, tablets, capsules, emulsions, dispersions, and troches.
- the composition comprising the rhamnolipid(s) can be in any conventional I.V. or I. P. administrable form, including, but not limited to, solution, neat liquid, dispersion, etc.
- the same methods of administration used for burn shock can also be used in the treatment and/or prevention of organ rejection, depression, schizophrenia and atherosclerosis, using similar effective dosages.
- a further use for the rhamnolipid containing composition of the present invention is in the preparation of a cosmetic composition comprising one or more of the rhamnolipids in an amount effective to treat signs of aging, such as wrinkles.
- a cosmetic composition would be applied from 1 to 3 times per day to the affected area.
- the cosmetic composition could be in any of the topical forms noted above and contain similar amounts of rhamnolipid(s).
- composition comprising the one or more rhamnolipids can further include, if desired, one or more carriers and/or diluents conventionally used in the pharmaceutical and/or cosmetic industries.
- the BAC-3 rhamnolipid was tested in the case of open wound healing, in a patient suffering around ten years from incurable venous ulcer. On the left leg, the patient had very thick layers of collagen with fibrotic lesions. After administration of 1% BAC-3 in the form of an ointment, twice daily during 41 days, the patient's condition was significantly improved. Moreover, after treatment was finished, not only the collagen, but also the fibrotic lesions had disappeared as well. One year after the treatment, the treated skin lesions on the left leg appear normal, and all skin collagen and fibrotic layers had disappeared.
- the wounding of animals was performed according to the Protocol for Animal Use and Care at the University of California-Davis (hereafter UC-Davis).
- the entire animal protocol required 70 Sprague-Dawley rats: 30 rats for incision wounds and 40 rats for burn wounds. Among them 36 rats were burned over 7% of their skin and 4 rats were burned over 15% of their skin.
- Burn wounds The consecutive burn wounds should ideally be identical in depth and extent.
- the standard method defines the size and location of the burn wound, the temperature gradient, duration of exposure and method of applying the burn.
- the wound surface areas tested were of two different sizes. One size to 7% of the body surface, which enables one to compare the rate of wound healing with different percentage of BAC-3 and the other size to 15% of the body surface, which is a sufficient size so that healing could not occur by contraction alone. On the other hand, the total wound surface area should not cause major systematic problems. The latter can be concluded from undisturbed weight gain of the animals.
- the standard animal burn was performed by techniques and device described by Walker.
- the burning devices were prepared using a model device ordered from U.S. Army Surgical Research Unit, Experimental Surgery, Army Medical Center, Fort Sam Houston, Texas 78234. The devices had apertures which enabled exposure of 7% and 15% of the total rat skin surface.
- H&E Hematoxylin-Eosin
- the wounds were immediately closed with skin sutures spaced at a distance of 0.5 cm. Seven days later, all sutures were removed. On days 14 and 21 after incision, three animals from each group were sacrificed using an overdose of sodium pentobarbital. Using a plexiglass template, a minimum of two samples of full-thickness skin were harvested perpendicular to the long axis of the wound for tensile strength determination. The skin samples were 9.0 mm wide at the wound by 2.0 cm long.
- Tensile Strength Determination The standard wound samples for each treatment cohort were examined for tensile strength by pulling the individual wounds apart in an Instron 4201 (Universal Testing instruments, Instron Engineering Co., Canton, MA) material tester. Special clamps were used to securely grip the tissue to avoid slippage as the wounds were pulled at a standard cross speed of 25 mm/min. The tensile strength of healthy skin was measured in killed animals from each group. Vertebrate animals
- Subjects used in this experiment were male Sprague - Dawley rats 5 to 6 weeks old. Rats were housed in polypropylene cages with mere mesh lids and solid floors containing 1 cm depth of wood shavings . Animals were housed and placed in an air conditioned room at 21 C° (+/- 2)C°, 52- 73% relative humidity, 15 fresh air changes per hr and 12 fir light/dark cycle. Animals were fed with a synthetic pellet diet, freshly obtained and not preserved with pesticides, containing all essential nutrients and stored under standard conditions and water ad libitum.
- Animals were acclimatized for at least one week before the start of the study and were 7 weeks old at the time of treatment. They were allocated to the various experimental groups using a system of random numbers, and group body weights were checked on the day of treatment to ensure they did not differ from the overall mean by more than 5%.
- group 1 D placebo
- group 1 B (0.1% of BAC-3) had a mean value of collagen concentration of 79.72
- group 1 A 1% of BAC-3) had a mean value of collagen concentration of 131.26.
- Rate of burn wound closure with BAC-3 without chlorhexidine hydrochloride (Fig. I). Burns were induced on the dorsal surface of rats using standardized methods as described previously. The total burn area was equivalent to 7 % of the surface area. Topical BAC-3 was applied twice daily starting on the first day until the animals were sacrificed at day 45. Treatment groups included BAC-3 in a eucerin vehicle. Two concentrations of BAC-3 were used, 1% and 0.1 %. Control treatments consisted of vehicle alone. There were no significant differences in body weights among the treatment groups during the 45 days of the study. Wound healing was assessed in vivo by measuring the distance across wound edges at days 14, 21, 28, 35 and 45. There were 6 rats per group. As shown in the figure, burn wounds decreased in size significantly faster in rats administered the 0.1 % BAC-3 as compared with burn wounds on rats receiving vehicle alone. The rate of wound closures as assessed by calculating the linear regression coefficient.
- the most likely mechanism for the alteration in material properties of the granulation tissue is a decrease in production of the trifunctional collagen crosslink hydroxypyridinium and/or its dihydroxylated precursors. Increased levels of hydroxypyridinium are associated with increased tensile strength, increased stiffness, decreased solubility, and increased resistance to enzymatic digestion of the matrix. Abnormal production of hydroxypyridinium is specifically associated with hypertrophic scarring and keloid formation. It is likely that BAC-3 exerts its modulating effect on hydroxypyridinium formation by down regulating lysine hydroxylation, which in turn could be modulated either directly by the drug, or indirectly through known effects of BAC-3 on specific cytokines.
- the quality of a model for infliction of standard burns depends on its reproducibility.
- the consecutive burn wounds should ideally be identical in depth and extent.
- the standard animal burn is performed by techniques and device described by Walker.
- the device has an aperture that enables exposure of between 35-50 % of the total rat skin surface.
- the upper bracket surface is determined in which all burned animals die within 24 hours. This upper bracket surface is used as the surface needed for testing BAC-3 in prevention of burn shock.
- WKY rats Wistar Kyoto rats manifest several behaviors that are suggestive of depression. WKY rats demonstrate immobility in the forced swim test. The fact that WKY rats are susceptible to restraint- induced stress ulcer and also reveal significantly higher levels of adrenocorticotropin hormone in response to restraint stress suggests that WKY rats are hyper-responsive to stress stimulation.
- the antidepressant desipramine reduces immobility in the forced swim test and also reduces the incidence of stress ulcer in WKY rats.
- the study uses 24 Wistar rats (WKY male rats).
- the WKY rats are provided by Taconic Farms (Germantown, NY) from their line of WKY rats. Rats are housed with ad lib food and water and daylight conditions maintained between 0600 and 1800 h. Rats are 85-95 days old at the beginning of the study.
- the forced swim apparatus is a simple glass water tank which is 30 cm in diameter and 45 cm tall. The water level is 15 cm from the top. Water temperature is maintained at 25 °C. Animals remain in the water for 15 min, during which time their behaviors are recorded. The rats are subsequently removed and allowed to dry for 15 min in a heated enclosure (32°C), then returned to their home cages.
- This treatment produces long periods of immobility in the water (10-12 min total duration) and the rats on removal are mildly hypothermic (-3°C) and are hypoactive for periods up to 30 min.
- the 24 rats are divided in 4 groups each of 6 rats. The first group receives an l.P. injection of BAC-3 lOmg/kg 24 hours and 1 hour before testing. The second group receives BAC-3 orally (10 mg/kg) 24 hours and 1 hour before testing. The third group receives only 0.9 % NaCl l.P. The fourth group receives 0.9 % NaCl orally. BAC-3 is dissolved in 0.9 % NaCl and injected in a constant volume of 5 ml/kg .
- Rats are individually placed in the water tank and their behavior is recorded. This includes the amount of time spent floating, the number of headshakes, and the number of bobbings. These behaviors are defined as follows: headshakes- shaking head and breaking water surface; bobbing- paddling with forepaws, and/or rear paws with head moving above and below water surface; floating -motionless without moving front or rear paws.
- mice When mice are subjected to a weak stress, forced swimming for 3 min, and then treated repeatedly with phencyclidine (PCP) and subjected to the same stress again, the forced swimming-induced immobility was enhanced.
- PCP phencyclidine
- PCP treatment could be consistent with the phenomena observed in schizophrenia and with the previous experimental reports, suggesting that the treatment could serve as an animal model for the negative symptoms of PCP psychosis.
- classical antipsychotics improve the positive symptoms of schizophrenia, they do not improve the negative symptoms.
- a recent advance in this field is the clinical introduction of compounds that have both dopamine-D 2 and 5-HT 2A receptor antagonist properties, such as clozapine.
- mice of the C 57/black strain weighing 25-27 g at the beginning of the experiments are used.
- the animals are housed in plastic cages and are kept in a regulated environment (23
- each mouse On the 1 st day, each mouse is individually placed in a transparent glass cylinder (20 cm high, 8 cm in diameter), which contains water to a depth of 8 cm, and is forced to swim for 3 min.
- the duration of immobility is measured (first measurement of immobility) with a digital counter.
- the mice are matched according to the results of immobility time in the first measurement of immobility, and are divided into various treatment groups.
- mice On the 16th day, each mouse is placed in water again for 3 min, and the immobility time is recorded. BAC-3 is administered l.P. 1 h before the second measurement of immobility. Control mice receive vehicle only and the same procedure is performed.
- Chylomicron remnants and intermediate density lipoprotein particles are highly atherogenic particles that are typically cleared rapidly from the blood by the interaction of apoE and either the LDL receptor of the LDL receptor-like protein primarily by the liver. In humans with genetic variation in the apoE gene or apoE deficiency this process is impaired and these particles accumulate in the plasma leading to premature atherosclerosis. In apoE- deficient mice a simian phenomenon is observed. ApoE-deficient mice have high plasma levels of these lipoprotein remnants. On a low-fat, low cholesterol diet levels of VLDL exceed 500 mg/DL. These mice develop widespread atherosclerosis. Extensive pathological studies have demonstrated that the quality of these lesions is similar to that of humans. They start as early subintimal foam cell deposits and progress to advanced fibroproliferative atherosclerotic lesions that contain substantial myointimal hyperplasia and extracellular matrix, hallmarks of human atherosclerosis.
- rhamnolipid(s) in the prevention of organ transplant rejection is performed either in the model of murine pancreatic islets; or allogeneic bone marrow in graft- versus post-reactive and graft-versus-host-nonreactive situations in rat and/or a mouse model; or in a rat mo'del of hind limb allotransplantation.
- three groups are studied: unheated graft; grafts receiving 10-30 mg/kg/day of rhamnolipid started on post operative day 7 and rhamnolipid started on day 9 (lOmg/kg/day). At least one of the above mentioned conditions is used as a model in the prevention of transplant organ rejection.
- di-rhamnolipid BAC-3 The effect of di-rhamnolipid BAC-3 on the mechanisms of apoptosis in neonatal human fibroblast and keratinocyte cell culture.
- CaspaTag Fluorescein Caspase Activity Kit (Intergen Company) was used to detect active caspase enzymes with fluorescent spectroscopy. All solutions, except cell medium and PBS, were included with the kit.
- Di-rhamnolipid BAC-3 was weighed on the precision balance (Mettler AC 100) and dissolved in FM medium to make an aqueous lmg/ml di-rhamnolipid BAC-3 stock solution.
- Di-rhamnolipid BAC-3 stock solution was filtered through a 0.2 ⁇ m filter (Corning) and diluted to 4 different concentrations (100 ⁇ g/ml, 50 ⁇ g/ml, 10 ⁇ g/ml and 1 ⁇ g/ml) in FM.
- the medium was aspirated from 12 100mm NHF97-001 passage #4 plates and cells were administered 12ml of prepared BAC-3 concentrations. The concentrations were tested in triplicate.
- the remaining 9 plates were used as controls: 3 plates for positive apoptosis control (apoptosis induction by UVB+antibody), 3 plates for BAC-3 untreated control and 3 plates for fluorescence control (FAM-VAD-FMK unlabelled cells).
- 3 plates for positive apoptosis control apoptosis induction by UVB+antibody
- 3 plates for BAC-3 untreated control 3 plates for fluorescence control (FAM-VAD-FMK unlabelled cells).
- FAM-VAD-FMK unlabelled cells 3 plates for fluorescence control
- UVB irradiation + apoptosis inducing antibody 2 On day 3, a custom made UVB lamp, capable of radiating exactly 12 J/m of UVB per second, was placed in the biological hood cabinet where it was disassembled into parts and exposed for 15 minutes to germicidal UV light. Medium was aspirated from 3 control plates and cells were washed once with 5 ml of sterile PBS. Lids were removed from the dishes and 500ul of PBS was placed on each of the 3 plates. Plates were then placed under the UV lamp and cells covered with a thin layer of PBS were i ⁇ adiated with UVB light for 33
- microcentrifuge tubes 10 ⁇ l of 30x FAM-VAD-FMK solution was added to each 300 ⁇ l cell aliquots. A rack with microcentrifuge tubes (caps should be left opened) was wrapped in aluminum foil (to protect from light) and cells were then incubated for 1 hr in 37°C, 5% C0 2 incubator.
- BAC-3 concentrations were selected for testing the effect of BAC-3 on caspase enzyme activity (marker of cell apoptosis): 100 ⁇ g/ml, 50 ⁇ g/ml, 10 ⁇ g/ml and 1 ⁇ g/ml. According to obtained values, BAC-3 concentrations of 50 ⁇ g/ml seems to be the optimal concentrations for inducing apoptosis in neonatal human fibroblast cells. In other words, at 50 ⁇ g/ml BAC-3 induction of apoptosis reached its peak and administering higher or lower BAC-3 concentrations weakened the effects. With higher concentrations of BAC-3 it was shown that cell death occurred by mechanism of cell necrosis (detergent effect) rather than by programmed cell death (apoptosis).
- FM medium High calcium (200 mg/L), high glucose (4500 mg/L), Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM; Gibco) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS; Gemini Bio-products), lxL-glutamine (0.292 mg/ml) and lxABAM (100 units of penicillin, 100 ⁇ g of streptomycin and 0.25 ⁇ g of amphotericin). Good for one month if refrigerated at 2-8°C.
- DMEM Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium
- FBS fetal bovine serum
- lxL-glutamine 0.292 mg/ml
- lxABAM 100 units of penicillin, 100 ⁇ g of streptomycin and 0.25 ⁇ g of amphotericin
- Fig. 4 shows the effect of BAC-3 on caspase activity in neonatal human fibroblast cells grown in FM (cell line NHF97-001, passage #3).
- Cells at 80% confluence, were administered BAC-3 in FM at lOO ⁇ g/ml. 50 ⁇ g/ml, lO ⁇ g/ml and 1 ⁇ g/ml concentrations. Medium was replaced every two days over the period of 6 days.
- positive apoptosis control was established by irradiating fibroblasts with 396 J/m UVB light and incubating them with 1 ⁇ g/ml FAS antibody.
- BAC-3 treated and control cells were harvested and cell densities were adjusted to 1x10 cells per ml with FM.
- Neonatal human keratinocytes were without the presence of serum (KGM medium).
- passage #3 cells Prior to treatment with BAC-3, passage #3 cells were grown in KGM medium for 7 days with one medium change (until 80% confluent).
- plates were i ⁇ adiated with UVB light for 66 seconds (792 J/m2).
- BAC-3 concentrations were chosen for testing the effect of BAC-3 on mechanism of apoptosis in neonatal human keratinocytes cells: 50 ⁇ g/ml, 10 ⁇ g/ml, 1 ⁇ g/ml and 0.5 ⁇ g/ml. According to results. BAC-3 concentrations of 1 ⁇ g/ml seems to be the optimal concentration for inducing apoptosis in neonatal human keratinocyte cells grown in KGM (serum free medium). In other words, at 1 ⁇ g/ml BAC-3 induction of apoptosis reached its peak and administering higher or lower BAC-3 concentrations weakened the effects. With higher concentrations of BAC-3 it was shown that cell death occu ⁇ ed by mechanism of cell necrosis ("detergent effect”) rather than by programmed cell death (apoptosis).
- Fig. 5 shows the effect of BAC-3 on caspase activity in neonatal keratinocyte cells grown in KGM (cell line NHK97-045, passage #3).
- Cells at 80% confluence, were administered BAC-3 in KGM at 50 ⁇ g/ml, lO ⁇ g/ml, 1 ⁇ g/ml and 0.5 ⁇ g/ml concentrations. Medium was replaced every two days over the period of 6 days.
- positive apoptosis control was established by i ⁇ adiating cells with 792 J/m 2 UVB light and incubating them with 1 ⁇ g/ml FAS antibody.
- BAC-3 treated and control cells were harvested and cell densities were adjusted to lxlO 6 cells per ml with FM.
- GM Growth medium; medium used to initiate keratinocyte differentiation with serum: High calcium (200 mg/L), high glucose (4500 mg/L) Dulbecco's modified Eagle's medium (DMEM; Gibco), supplemented with 10% FBS (Gemini Bio-products), IxL-glutamine (0.292 mg/ml; Gibco), lxABAM (100 units of penicillin, 100 ⁇ g of streptomycin and 0.25 ⁇ g of amphotericin; Gibco), hydrocortisone (400 ng/ml; Sigma), epidermal growth factor (10 ng/ml; Upstate Biotechnology, Inc.) and cholera toxin (83 ng/ml; Calbiochem). Good for one month if refrigerated at 2-8 °C.
- Fig. 6 shows the effect of BAC-3 on caspase activity in neonatal keratinocyte cells grown in GM (cell line NHK2000-02, passage #3).
- GM cell line NHK2000-02, passage #3.
- positive apoptosis control was established by irradiating cells with 792 J/m 2 UVB light and incubating them with 1 ⁇ g/ml FAS antibody.
- BAC-3 treated and control cells were harvested and cell densities were adjusted to lxlO 6 cells per ml with FM.
- Neonatal human fibroblast or keratinocyte cells were plated on 100 mm plates. When cultures were 80% confluent they were treated with different concentrations of BAC-3. After 6 days, cells were collected and cell densities were adjusted to 1x10 cells/ml. 300 ⁇ l aliquots were transfe ⁇ ed into microcentrifuge tubes. Protected from light, 10 ⁇ l of 30x was added to each aliquot. Cells were incubated for 1 hr in 37 °C, 5% CO2 incubator.
- BAC-3 acts to inhibit the process of apoptosis which is indicated as decrease in the level of active caspases and reflected as increased cell growth and viability and is reflective of the ability to re-epithelize skin, particularly for treatment of wound healing, gum disease and for periodontal regeneration.
