The preparation of PVA/Chitosan/Fibroin (PCF)-blended sponge sheets and wound healing effects of these sheets in rats were investigated. We excised the skin off rat, including the dermis, approximately 2${\times}$2 cm in size. The wound was coveted with PCF-blended spongy sheets. The spongy sheets absorbed the exudate, and gained flexibility and softness. Histopathological inspection of the wound 12 days later showed the increase of a vascular ingrowth and the absence of inflammatory cells. Regeneration of the skin around the wound was faster than that of the control. We also tested wound healing effects of PVA, Chitosan and Fibroini alone of in various combinations. Wound healing was accelerated in the order of PVA/chitosan/Fibroin (PCF)-blended sponge>Chitosan/Fibroin (CF)-blended sponge$\geq$Fibroin (F) sponge>PVA/Chitosan-blended sponge (PC)>Chitosan (C) sponge.

The process of wound repair involves an ordered sequence of events such as overlapping biochemical and cellular events that, in the best of circumstances, result in the restoration of both the structural and functional integrity of the damaged tissue. An important event during wound healing is the contraction of newly formed connective tissues by fibroblasts. The polypeptide growth factors, like transforming growth factor-${\beta}$(TGF-${\beta}$, insulin-like growth factor I (IGF- I) and epidermal growth factor (EGF), play very important mediator roles in the process of wound contraction. Deer antlers, as models of mammalian regeneration, are cranial appendages that develop after birth as extensions of a permanent protuberance (pedicle) on the frontal bone. Antlers contain various growth factors which stimulate dermal fibroblast growth. They are involved in digestion and respiration and are necessary for normal wound healing and skin health. In order to investigate and evaluate the effects of red deer antlers on skin wound site, the speed of full-thickness skin wound healing and the expression of IGF-I, TGF-${\beta}$ and EGF in skin wounds, three groups of skin full-thickness rat models with a high concentration of antler ointment, a low concentration of antler ointment and without antler ointment were compared. At post-injury days 0, 2, 4, 8, 16, 20, 32, 40 and 60, the skin wound area was measured, the expressions of IGF-I, TGF- ${\beta}$ and EGF mRNA were detected by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and collagen formation by sirius red dye and the localization of IGF-I, TGF-${\beta}$ and EGF peptides were inspected by histological immunohistochemical techniques. Wound healing was significantly more rapid in antler treated skins. In addition, the wound treated with a high concentration antler ointment, a low concentration antler ointment, and the control closed completely at post-injury day 40, day 44 and day 60, respectively. Via RT-PCR, the expressions of IGF-I (day 8 and day 16), TGF-${\beta}$(day 8, day 16 and day 20) and EGF (day 4, day 8, day 16, and day 32) were obviously up-regulated in high concentration antler-treated skins compared to control skins. Similar results could be seen in the histological detection of collagen dye and immunohistochemical methods using the corresponding polyclone antibodies of IGF-I, TGF-${\beta}$ and EGF. These results illustrate that antlers stimulate and accelerate the repair of cutaneous wounds.

The burn is acute skin injury caused by fire, hot water. steam. hot oil, sour and salty. It is occurred frequently in the daily life as well as oriental therapy like moxibustion therapy, physical therapy. Nevertheless, medical treatment of the burn is almost dependent on western cure. So we chose the oriental medicine textbooks and the oriental medicine journals that were dealing with the drugs, processing the drugs. peculiar treatment put first external cure. The results were as follows; 1. The burn is acute skin injury caused by fire, hot water, steam, hot oil, sour and salty. 2. The burn cause blisters, irritability and restlessness, nausea, dryness of mouth, constipation, in case of serious, coma, dyspnea and death. The early stage of the burn, blisters form by skin damage and they burst into skin ulceration from which pus issues, the latter term, the wound form scab and healed up. 3. In a light case, medical treatment of the burn was used external treatment by medicine for externalism use, in a serious case, it was used both as an internal remedy and medicine for outward application. Also in the early stage, it was careful of using the cold and cool medicine, as the process of healing, it was used alleviating pain, detoxicating, moistening the skin, growing muscle and skin, convergence, evacuating pus, regeneration of the tissue, strengthen the spleen and nourishing the stomach. 4. The external treatment medication is Herba Ephedrae Oil(麻油), Radix ET Rhizoma Rhei(大黃), Glauberitum(寒水石), Water(水), Pig OiI(猪油), Pig Fat(猪脂), Radix Angelicae Gigantis(當歸), Rhizoma Coptidis(黃連), Cortex Phellodindri(黃栢). The White of an Egg(鷄子淸), Raw Honey(生蜜), Honey(蜜), Wine(酒), Etc. It is mostly the cold and cool medications. 5. Soft extracted and powered dosage form in external treatment is much used. The soft extracted form(32times used) are mostly Chung Ryang paste(淸凉膏) and Fructus Papaveris paste(罌粟膏). The powered form(30times used) are mostly Bingsang Powder(氷霜散), Bosaenggugo Powder(保生救苦散), Sahwang Powder(四黃散). The others is much a various powder adding solvent. 6. If varicella stage, erosion after varicella stage, oozing stage and extreme pain stage, the powder adding solvent is much used. If little oozing stage. ulcering stage, scabing stage and a chronic stage, Soft extracted dosage form is much used. 7. The most many(26.65%) used method is that apply each medication power mixed water(水), wine(酒), honey(蜜) in a wounded part.

The author used rabbits in order to examine the effect of Ga-As low power generating semiconductor laser on artificially produced injuries of experimental animals. Artificially produced injuries include surgical wound of 3mm length, 2mm depth in size on ventral skin surface of rabbit and buccal mucosa, and electrical injury formed on opposite side of skin and buccal mucosa by electrical cauterization of same length and depth, and chemical injury formed by FC(Formocresol) solution applied on the anterior dorsal part of tongue. And then, on the experimental group, Ga-As laser was irradiated beginning on the day after the wound formation and continued to irradiate every each other day for five minutes. After1, 3, 6, 9, 13th day, certain number of animals of control and experimental group were sacrified, and wound site tissue was excised to make samples and was observed under light microscope. The following is the conclusions after comparing the healing procedure of experimental and control group. The following results were obtained : 1. Inflammation was decreased more rapidly in the experimental group than the control group. 2. In the surgical, the electrical and the chemical injuries in the oral mucosa, re-epithelialization was completed more rapidly in the experimental group than the control group. In the electrical injury on the skin, re-epithelialization was completed about 6 days after wound formation on both groups. 3. In the electrical and the surgical injuries on the oral mucosa, granulation tissue formation started at 3 days after injury on both groups, but in the chemical injury, it was completed about 3 days faster in the control group than the experimental group. In the surgical wound on the skin, it was completed about 9 days after injury, but faster in the experimental group. In the electrical injury on the skin, it was faster in the control group than the experimental group. 4. In the electrical and the surgical injuries on the oral mucosa, fibrosis was started at 6~9 days after injury on both groups, but regeneration of connective tissue in the experimental group was observed much more than the control group. 5. When comparing the effect of wound healing on skin and oral mucosa of control and experimental group, granulation tissue formation and re-epithelialization in the oral mucosa was more vigorous. In conclusion, the difference of timing and the sequence of wound healing process(inflammation, re-epithelialization, granulation tissue formation, fibrosis) following Laser irradiation between control and experimental group was not observed, but the healing tissue was observed much more in the Laser irradiated group.

Minerals from marine materials such as deep ocean water and Dead Sea water have been used since ancient times. We made a mask pack sheet including deep ocean water and salt from the Dead Sea and evaluated the function of the mask pack sheet through animal study. Three full-thickness skin defects were made on the backs of Sprague-Dawley rats. The wounds were left untreated in group Con, and mask pack sheets including deep ocean water or deep ocean water and Dead Sea water were used as treatment for 20 min on the skin of animals in groups DP and DDP, respectively. We analyzed the gross, histological and biochemical findings. Groups DDP and DP showed decreases in wound size, as compared to group Con at 7 days after wound infliction. The histological findings revealed that wound healing had progressed further in groups DP and DDP than in group Con, with more rapid collagen deposition and regression of neutrophils. Also, the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor and transforming growth factor ${\beta}1$ were increased in groups DDP and DP compared with those in group Con at 3 days after wound infliction. Mask sheet packs including deep ocean water and Dead Sea salt affected wound healing by reducing the inflammatory phase and stimulated wound contracture by facilitating the deposition of collagen.

건강한 피부 기능의 악화 원인으로는 콜라겐 섬유 감소, 탄력섬유 변성, 활성산소종의 과다 생성 등이 있다. 이로 인하여 피부 탄력 저하나 주름이 생성된다. 피부 탄력 저하 및 주름 생성과 같은 피부 노화를 개선하기 위해 대표적으로 비타민 A, C 및 그 유도체들이 화장품에 적용되고 있지만 화학적 불안정성의 문제점이 있어 새로운 유도체들의 합성 개발에 노력을 기울이고 있다. 본 연구에서는 피부개선을 위한 화장품 원료로 최근 비타민 C로부터 새롭게 합성된 3-O-cetyl-L-ascorbic acid (VCCE)의 주름 개선과 관련된 효능 효과를 평가하였다. VCCE의 in vitro 실험 결과 procollagen type I의 합성을 0.002%에서 최대 149% 증가시켰다. 또한 인체적용시험에서 일차적으로 폐쇄 첩포 실험 결과 자극이 유발되지 않았으며, 모사판 분석 및 PRIMOS system을 이용한 주름측정결과에서도 주름개선효과를 확인하였다. 결과적으로, VCCE는 주름 개선을 위한 화장품 성분으로서 높은 응용 가치를 제시한다.
