Abstract

Young shoots of Epilobium angustifolium (fireweed), traditionally used as a poultice for wounds, were evaluated in vivo and in vitro; the extract and its components (quercetin, hyperoside) accelerated wound healing and modulated enzymes connected with the healing process, validating its ethnopharmacological vulnerary use.
