Propolis “bee glue” is a nature substance, it is collected from combing of bee hive frames. It has several
medical remedies such as anti-microbial, anti-spasm, local anesthetic, and wound healing. The cutaneous wounds
repair still remain a big challenge because of skin ability to heal as scar. Therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the Iraqi
Propolis to regenerate wound healing. To estimate the total leukocyte count (TLC), wound diameter, histopathological
examination of the skin and evaluation of cutaneous fibroblast growth factor (FGF2
) level. Results revealed that the
TLC recorded significant elevating in control group for all periods after induced wound. While the treated group was
returned to normal level in (21 and 28 days). The wound diameter was reduced in the treated group compered with
the control group. The histopathological changes of treated group rebounded to a semi-natural pattern in analogical
periods compared with control group. The FGF2 level suffered from rapid elevating with small period in propolis group
more than control group to heal the wound. Also its increase rebounded the healed cutaneous wounds at last periods
of the treated group to regeneration. This assay demonstrated propolis is not only enhancement and acceleration of the
wound healing in dogs but also prevent contamination, relive pain, avoid scar formation and minimize hemorrhage
therefor it is a typical drug for a topical administration of the wound treatment.
