摘要:In laser-induced partial-thickness burns of pig skin, moist exposed burn ointment (MEBO) produces a moist environment, allows drainage of exudates, reduces eschar formation, and accelerates debridement and wound healing. A prospective multi-center study was conducted to evaluate the effect of MEBO on the healing of partial-thickness burn wounds. We included 52 patients with 100 burn sites ranging from 0.5% to 15% total body surface area in the study. Treatment efficacy was assessed on physical examination of the wound, the course of time of trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL) and moisture values, bacterial wound colonization and the degree of pain experienced by patients during and between dressing changes. Using the Visual Analogue Thermometer device (VAT) a progressive decrease of pain was found throughout the treatment which was statistically significant at 6, 9 and 12 post-burn days. TEWL, as an indicator of re-epithelialization, demonstrated a decreasing trend on day 3, and the reduction became significant from the 6th post-burn day. Moisture was significantly decreased during the first 5 post-burn days. As re-epithelialization progressed there was a net decrease in moisture paralleling TEWL. After 1 week of MEBO treatment, bacterial wound colonization decreased to 10% in the immediate group and to 61% in the late group of application. By the second week, colonization dropped to 5% and 23% respectively. Topical ointment application contributed to the debridement of the wound bed facilitating rapid epithelialization within 2–6 days, depending on the burn depth. MEBO is an ointment that can effectively produce a moist and wet environment for optimal healing of partial-thickness burns.
摘要:The porcine model was used to investigate the wound healing process. 116 partial and full-thickness wounds were induced on the back of the animals using the CO2 Three local dressing agents were tested: Povidone Iodine, Silver Sulphadiazine and MEBO ointments. The following parameters were evaluated: physical examination, photography, pH, transepidermal water loss and moisture of the wound, planimetry and histological assessment of injury. The measurement of different parameters revealed that partial-thickness burn wounds were better assessed using Transepidermal Water Loss (TEWL), while full-thickness ones are better assessed using planimetry, measuring the surface of the wound. MEBO significantly accelerates the wound healing process of partial- (inflicted by CO2 Laser) and full-thickness excised wounds when compared to other local agents applied on wounds similar in size, extent and cause and the control group.
摘要:Background: The incidence of diabetes-related wounds is widespread, and the treatment is challenging. We found that Moist Exposed Burn Ointment (MEBO) promotes the healing of diabetes-related wounds, but the mechanism is not clear.Methods: This study aimed to explore the mechanism of MEBO on diabetic wound healing, which may be related to the promotion of re-epithelialization. A full-thickness skin resection model was established in streptozotocin(STZ)-induced diabetic mice. MEBO and Kangfuxin (KFX) were applied to the wound area, and the wound healing rate was analyzed by photographing. The granulation tissue and epidermal thickness, the collagen remodeling rate, and the expression of cytokeratin 10 (CK10), cytokeratin 14 (CK14), Ki67,CollagenⅠ,and Collagen Ⅲ in the regenerated skin were detected by H&E staining, Masson staining, and immunofluorescence staining, respectively. MEBO and KFX were applied to human immortalized keratinocytes (HaCaT)、mouse dermal fibrolasts (MDF) cells, and cell viability, cell migration, and differentiation were determined by CCK-8, scratching assay, RT-qPCR, and Western blot(WB), respectively. Results: We found that MEBO significantly promoted the formation of wound granulation tissue and collagen remodeling in diabetic mice. The application of MEBO to diabetic wounds not only promoted the formation of hair follicles and sebaceous glands but also promoted the expression of Ki67, CK10, and CK14 in epidermal cells. MEBO had no significant effect on the differentiation process of keratinocytes.Conclusions: Our study further proved that MEBO plays a positive role in diabetic wound healing, and its excellent ability to promote re-epithelialization may be an important reason for promoting wound healing.
