    Abstract:
    The wound-healing agent Dalargin, a hexapeptide and varios of its cleavage products were tested in a wound-healing model on the basis of granulation in rat. Three days after wounding (p.op.) an increase in granulation was observed at Dalargin concentrations of 10 micrograms/ml and 50 micrograms/ml. Seven days p.op. an increase was observed already at a Dalargin concentration of 5 micrograms/ml. The cleavage products of Dalargin had no stimulating effect on granulation. A histologic differentiation of the different cell parts in the granulation tissue led to an increased total number of cells. The concentration of 5 micrograms/ml induced both an increase in the number of endothelial cells and fibroblasts, the concentration of 50 micrograms/ml induced just an increase of the number of endothelial cells. The possible bases of the mode of operation are being discussed. The stimulating effect on wound healing as described could be confirmed by the results obtained in our animal experiments.
