Wound healing effects of aloe muth-muth: in vitro investigations using immortalized human keratinocytes (HaCaT)
The traditional use of Aloe spp. for the purpose of wound healing has a long history and
is widespread internationally. Recently, a hybrid aloe plant (Aloe muth-muth) has been cultivated
by cross pollination between Aloe vera and Aloe ferox. The Aloe muth-muth plant has not yet been
investigated for medicinal properties and provides an opportunity for potential biological activity,
including wound healing. The aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro wound healing
effects of both Aloe muth-muth gel and whole leaf material with the use of the immortalized human
keratinocyte (HaCaT) cell line. Cell viability was conducted using methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium
(MTT) assays. In vitro wound healing was tested on HaCaT cells using an established scratch assay
method. The effect of Aloe muth-muth gel material on HaCaT cell migration was also investigated.
Aloe muth-muth gel material exhibited statistically significantly (p < 0.05) higher percentage wound
closure compared to the control at all three concentrations investigated. These findings confirm that
this newly cultivated species, Aloe muth-muth, also possesses wound healing activity corresponding
to that reported for the two species it is derived from, namely, Aloe vera and Aloe ferox. Therefore,
Aloe muth-muth has the potential to be used in future wound therapeutic

John F. Muth et l’émergence de la notion d’anticipations rationnelles
International audienceIn this article, we wonder at first to what extent the personality of Muth can explain his analysis of the question of the expectations. Then, to highlight the specificity of his approach, we compare it to that of the other economists who, before or at the same time as he, used the expression "rational expectations". Finally, we study the spread of his theory and the critical look that he took on his contribution at the end of his life.Dans cet article, on se demande d’abord dans quelle mesure la personnalité de Muth peut expliquer son approche de la question des anticipations. Puis, pour mettre en évidence la spécificité de sa démarche, on la compare à celle d’autres économistes qui, avant lui ou en même temps que lui, employèrent l’expression « anticipations rationnelles ». Enfin, on étudie la diffusion de la thèse défendue par Muth et le regard critique qu’il portait à sa contribution à la fin de sa vie
