Managing Your Patient’s Microclimate - Woundsource.com
Vulnerable skin within the skin microclimate is caused by a multitude of factors that are often aggravated by one another. Urine and feces, for example, have a negative impact on the skin as a result of the microorganisms and enzymes they contain. These factors break down the skin barrier and cause inflammation through the release of cytokines that trigger an immune response leading to symptoms of dermatitis (i.e., moisture-associated skin damage [MASD]).


Preventing Moisture-Associated Skin Damage - Woundsource.com
The outer layer of the skin, the epidermis, is the body's physical barrier to the environment. This barrier is compromised when moisture or trauma damages the epidermis. Frequently, moisture or adhesives can damage the skin and cause painful injuries. The damaged area is then more susceptible to infection and delayed healing. Overexposure to moisture can compromise the skin's integrity by disrupting the delicate molecular arrangement of intercellular lipids in the stratum corneum and the intercellular connections between epidermal cells or corneocytes.

Wound-Healing and Skin-Moisturizing Effects of Sasa veitchii Extract - Mdpi.com
Article by Nobutomo Ikarashi, Miho Kaneko, Izumi Fujisawa, Natsuko Fukuda, Ryotaro Yoshida, Risako Kon, Hiroyasu Sakai, Kiyoshi Sugiyama and Junzo Kamei (Tokyo, Japan - Healthcare). Sasa veitchii is a traditional herb derived from the bamboo genus, which is collectively called Kumazasa. Kumazasa extract increases AQP3 expression and exerts wound-healing and moisturizing effects. The increase in AQP3 expression elicited by Kumazasa extract may be due to enhancement of transcription via activation of p38 MAPK signaling.

A new approach to understanding the biology of wound healing - Myvetcandy.com
We know very little about why some wounds become chronic, making it hard to develop effective therapeutics to promote healing. New research from Jefferson describes a novel way to sample the cells found at wounds - using discarded wound dressings. This non-invasive approach opens a window into the cellular composition of wounds, and an opportunity to identify characteristics of wounds likely to heal versus those that become chronic, as well as inform the development of targeted therapies.
