2 Introduction In the U.S., 18 million people are diagnosed with diabetes and 7.9 million are diagnosed with pre-diabetes(1) Foot ulcers occur in approximately 15% of patients with diabetes mellitus in their lifetime. These ulcers are recalcitrant to healing and place a major impact on patients quality of life (2). Keratin protein is a novel material with potential as a new treatment approach for a wide range of chronic and acute wounds, including diabetic foot ulcers Previous studies have demonstrated the ability of keratin technology to activate keratinocytes, increase epithelialization of wounds and speed healing in recalcitrant ulcers (3-5) A short case series was undertaken to examine the performance of keratin gel in recalcitrant diabetic foot ulcers.nto the extent of surgical debridement needed to promote healing.
3 Methods Three patients with type 2 diabetes and chronic diabetic foot ulcers who presented for care at the Scholl Foot and Ankle Clinic were recruited for this case series. Patients with active infection or osteomyelitis were excluded. Wound duration ranged from 6 weeks to 4 months. Wound were treated weekly with Keratin gel technology (Figure 1) and sterile dressings. Treatment continued for up to 10 weeks. Instant Total Contact Cast Used as offloading modality for all patients.

PMH: Type 2 DM with peripheral neuropathy, HTN, hypercholesterolemia, Charcot neuroarthropathy Previous therapies: collagen, calcium alginate, foam

22 Results All 3 patients showed a substantial reduction in wound area during the treatment period. The first patient with a wound duration of 3 months prior to keratin treatment healed after 6 weeks. The second patient with a wound of 4 months duration prior to keratin treatment showed substantial reduction in wound volume after 10 weeks. The third patient with a wound for 6 weeks duration prior to treatment healed after 7 weeks. Standard care for this wound type would typically involve collagen and alginate treatment, and show a healing rate much lower than achieved with the keratin gel technology.
23 Discussion The proliferation and migration of kerationcytes can be a rate limiting step in epithelization and wound closure. Keratin proteins have been shown to be able to activate keratinocytes present in the wound and to stimulate them to quickly enter a hyperproliferative phase, an essential phase for wound healing. Stimulation of keratinocytes achieved by the Functional Keratin proteins can accelerate or increase epithelization to result in good wound healing
24 Conclusion Keratin gel is a new treatment option for superficial diabetic foot ulcers, in particular those shown to be or with the potential to be slow to heal. Keratin gel appears to improve healing relative to standard of care.
