Embodiment 1
[0063] Proposed mechanisms of healing were explored using sickle cell mouse studies (Rodrigues et al., in press). In this study, the transgenic sickle cell mouse model HbSS-BERK was used to determine the utility of DIDP. These mice do not express mouse hemoglobin and carry transgenic copies containing human α1, γ, δ and β-sickle genes on a mixed genetic background. It recapitulates human sickle cell disease, including hemolysis, reticulocytosis, anemia, extensive organ damage, shortened lifespan, and pain.
[0064] As described in more detail below, wound healing was significantly slower in SCD mice than in wild-type mice (***p<0.001). Wounds treated with DFO-TDDS (TDDS is synonymous with DIDP) showed significantly accelerated closure time, size compared to untreated wounds (***p<0.001) and DFO injection-treated (*p<0.05) Reduction and improved wound reconstruction. DFO released from TDDS into the wound results in the sequestration of excess dermal free iron.

Embodiment 2
[0089] To study the ability of an intradermal patch containing an iron chelator such as DFO to deliver DFO into the human dermis, a vertical Franz diffusion cell ( Figure 8 ) to evaluate DIDP. Full-thickness human skin samples obtained with Stanford University IRB approval were mounted between the two compartments of the diffusion cell with the cuticle facing the donor compartment. DIDP was applied, and the isotonic phosphate buffer solution was stirred with a magnetic stirrer and maintained at 37 °C by a circulating water jacket. Over the course of 15 hours, skin samples were removed hourly, washed with phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) and dried with absorbent towels. Skin samples were frozen at -20°C and cut into 20 μm sections with a microtome. Samples were analyzed spectrophotometrically at 560 nm (Shimadzu, Japan) for drug content and relative DFO concentrations were determined.
