Key Points

  • This research aims to explore callus culture as a method to increase gomphrenol production and its bioactive properties.
  • Utilized callus cultures from two Gomphrena celosioides varieties.
  • Assessed the effects of extracts on keratinocyte proliferation.
  • Evaluated cytotoxicity levels of hexane extracts.
  • Extracts restored IMQ-induced keratinocyte proliferation to baseline levels, similar to dexamethasone.
  • Cytotoxicity was generally low, but hexane extracts from WFV-callus showed higher toxicity.

Abstract

: 3-O-α-L-rhamnosyl-(1→6)-β-D-galactopyranoside, spinasterol, stigmast-7-en-3β-ol, and malic acid. Notably, extracts restored IMQ-induced keratinocyte proliferation to baseline, with efficacy comparable to dexamethasone. Cytotoxicity was generally low; however, hexane extracts from WFV-callus exhibited higher toxicity (. These findings highlight callogenesis as a promising and sustainable biotechnological strategy for metabolite enhancement and bioactivity modulation.
