    The objective of this research was to confirm the wound-healing activity of the hydroalcoholic extract from the leaves of Ruellia graecizans Backer, 'paque-paque,' in Balb/C53 strain albino mice (Mus musculus). Methodology: The plant was collected in El Rollo, Cutervo, Cajamarca, at an altitude of 1900 m.a.s.l. Solubility tests and a qualitative analysis were performed on the hydroalcoholic extract. A total of 70 mice with an average body weight of 30-40 g were distributed into seven groups. To determine wound-healing activity, gels with the extract at various concentrations (1%, 2%, 5%, and 10%) were prepared and applied to induced lesions using the method described by Vaisberg et al. (1989). These gels were compared to a standard gel and a control base gel. The results showed that the 10% gel had a healing efficacy of over 80%, comparable to the standard gel. Conclusion: The wound-healing activity of the 10% gel based on the topical application of the Ruellia graecizans Backer 'paque-paque' leaf extract was confirmed.
