Three Layers of skin:
Epidermis:
Stratified squamous
epithelium; outer
layer is "keratinized"
or "cornified"
Dermis:
Dense irregular
connective tissue
Hypodermis:
Adipose connective
tissue (technically not
3
part
of system)
Epidermis: Avascular.
Depends on blood vessels in underlying
dermis for its nutrition
Cells formed by
mitosis in deepest,
or basal layer, then
get pushed into
more superficial
layers or "strata"
4
(Epidermis)
Stratum Basale = Single row of dividing cells
Stratum Spinosum = Three or four layers of cells;
Some cell division
Stratum Granulosum = Three or four layers of cells;
Actively synthesizing protein
keratin
Stratum Lucidum = One or two layers of dying cells
Stratum Corneum = Many layers of flat, dead, scale-like
cells full of keratin
5
Primary cell type in epidermis = keratinocytes
which produce large amounts of protein keratin
Other cell types:
Melanocytes produce
pigment melanin &
transfer it to keratinocytes
Langerhans cells (really
macrophages) clean up
debris
Merkel cells detect touch
and pressure; transfer this
information to sensory
receptors in the dermis
6
Functions of the skin
• 1. Protection
– First line of defense
– Keratin: protects body from water loss, barrier for
environmental factors (stratum corneum)
– Melanin: keeps UV rays from penetrating
– Surface film: sweat, oil, etc
– Basal layer: composed of collagen(tissue
organization and regeneration, selective
permeability, physical barrier, bind)
7
Functions of the skin
• 2. Sensation
– Pressure, touch, temp, pain, etc
– Two specialized receptors:
• Meissner corpuscle – detects light pressure
• Pacinian corpuscle – detects deep pressure
8
Functions of the skin
• 3. Fluid balance
• The stratum corneum has the capacity to
absorb water
• Skin damage (burn)
• The skin is not completely impermeable to
water. (evaporation) 600cc/day
9
Functions of the skin
• 4. Body temperature
– Body produces heat (metabolism of foods)
– Body releases 80% of heat through skin
– On a hot day the skin releases almost 3000
calories of body heat (enough to boil five gallons
of water)
– Heat loss is controlled by negative feedback loop
– Skin blood flow
10
Functions of the skin
• 3. Produces Vitamin D
– Uv rays combine with skin to make cholecalciferol
– Cholecalciferol is transported to the liver and
kidneys where it is changed to vit D
– Vitamin D is essential for preventing osteoprosis
11
Functions of the skin
• Immune response function
• Langerhans cells facilitate the uptake of IgEassociated allergens

BACTERIAL SKIN INFECTIONS
54
Folliculitis, Furuncles, Carbuncles
• Folliculitis is an infection of bacterial or fungal
origin that arises within the hair follicles
• Lesions may be superficial or deep
• Single or multiple papules or pustules appear
close to the hair folicle
• Beard area in men and women’s leg
• Usually caused by staph.
• Pseudofolliculitis barbae (shaving bumps)
55
Folliculitis
56
Furuncle
• An acute inflammation arising deep in one or more
hair follicle and spreading into the surrounding
dermis
• Furunculosis is multiple or recurrent lesions
• Occur anywhere and more in pressure area
• Start as a small, red, raised, painful pimple after a
few days convert to furuncle (center become yellow
or black)
57
Furuncle
58
Carbuncle
• An abscess of the skin and subcutaneous tissue that
represents an extension of a furuncle that has
invaded several follicles and is large and deep seated.
• Usually caused by a staph
• Appear most commonly in thick skin and inelastic
• Result fever, pain, leukocytosis
• More likely in pt. with underlying systemic disease
(diabetes, hematologic malignancy, in person that
use immune suppressive drugs)

Medical management

61
Not to rupture protective wall of leasons
The boil or pimple should never be squeezed
Systematic antibiotic therapy:
Oral cloxacillin and dicloxacillin
Cephalosporin and erythromycin
When the pus has localized small, incision and
drainage induced
NONINFECTIOUS INFLAMMATORY
DERMATOSIS
62
Psoriasis
• The most common skin disease
• 2% of population
• A chronic disease stem from a hereditary defect that cause
overproduction of keratin
• Most common in 15-35 years
• Pathophysiology
- Immunologic basis
• Trigger factors
- Emotional stress, trauma, infections, seasonal and hormonal
changes
- The cell in the basal layer of the skin divide too quickly and
63 the normal events of cell maturation and growth cannot occur
Psoriasis
• C/M
• Red lesions with raised patches of skin
covered with silvery scales that are pruritic
• Involve the nails in one half of the pt. with
pitting, discoloration, beneath the free edges,
and separation of the nail plate
• Bilateral symmetry of lesions
• Most in scalp, elbow, knee, back, genitalia, nail
• Arthritis
64
Psoriasis
• Assessment and diagnostic finding
- Presence of the classic plaque-type
lesions
- Sign of nail and scalp
- Skin biopsy has little diagnostic value

66
M/M
Control of stress
Pharmacologic therapy:
Topical agents: topical corticosteroids and covering skin with occlusive
dressing, nonsteroidal treatments are calcipotriene ( a synthetic derivative
of calcitriol or vitamin D) and tazarotene ( topical retinoid)
Systemic agents:
Infliximab (a monoclonal antibody against tumour necrosis factor alpha
(TNF-α) used to treat autoimmune diseases)
Etanercept (a TNF inhibitor)
Efalizumb ( monoclonal antibody)
Alefacept ( immunosuppressive drug)
Adalimumab (the third TNF inhibitor)
M/M in Psoriasis
- Oral agents: methotrexate, cyclosporine A
(an immunosuppressant drug )oral retinoids
(Etretinate)
- Photochemotherapy: photosensitizing oral
medication with exposure to ultraviolet-A light
(PUVA).
- Photosensitizing medication (8methoxypsoralen)
- Phototherapy in the ultraviolet-B (UVB)

BLISTERING DISEASE
69
Pemphigus
• Pemphigus is a group of serious disease of the skin
characterized by the appearance of bullae.
• An autoimmune disease involving IgG
• A blister forms from the antigen-antibody
• Highest incidence in Jewish or Mediterranean
• Associated with penicillins and captopril and myasthenia
gravis
• C/M
• Oral lesions that are painful, bleed easily and oozing,
Nikolsky’s sign
• Complications : secondary bacterial infection, fluid and
electrolyte imbalance, hypoalbuminemia
70
Pemphigus
• M/M
• Goals : prevent loss of serum and the
development of secondary infection and to
promote reepithelization
• Corticosteroid priscription
• Immunosuppressive agents : azathioprine,
cyclophosphamide, gold
• plasmapheresis
