Abstract
The study presents a comprehensive assessment of plant-sourced natural compounds for wound healing, encompassing their chemical origins and the biological processes involved in their therapeutic effects on wound healing. Wound healing involves multiple stages, and any interruption during this sequence can result in improper wound healing. Restoration of the structure and function of damaged tissues, which is an intricate process, is governed by the discharge of multiple cytokines and growth factors at the site of injury. Wound healing may benefit greatly from a variety of plants or compounds derived from plants with high concentrations of antioxidants as well as anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, and antibacterial properties.
