Abstract Introduction Persistent inflammatory response in the diabetic wound impairs the healing process, resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. Mounting evidence indicates that the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome in macrophages (MF) contributes to the sustained inflammatory response and impaired wound healing associated with diabetes. However, the main trigger of NLRP3 inflammasome in the wounds is not known. Neutrophils, as sentinels of the innate immune system and key stimulators of MF, are immune cells that play the main role in the early phase of healing. Neutrophils release extracellular traps (NETs) as defense against pathogens. On the other hand, NETs induce tissue damage. NETs have been detected in the diabetic wound and implicated in the impaired healing process, but the mechanism of NETs suspend wound healing are elusive. Methods WB, immunofluorescence and immunocoprecipitation were used to detect the expression of NETs, NLRP3 inflammasome and IL-1b in diabetic foot ulcer wounds and the expression and activation of NLRP3 inflammsome after lowering the level of NETs. The role of NETs in activating macrophage inflammsome was verified and its mechanism was explored. Induced type I diabetic rats by STZ injection to detect the expression of NETs in the wound and observe the effects of exogenous DNase I on the expression of inflammasome and IL-1b in the wound, inflammatory cell infiltration and wound healing. Results NLRP3 and NETs are elevated in human and rat diabetic wounds. NETs overproduced in the diabetic wounds triggered NLRP3 inflammasome activation and IL-1b release. NETs up-regulated NLRP3 and pro-IL-1b levels via the TLR-4/TLR-9/NF-kB signalling pathway. NETs elicited ROS, which facilitated the association between NLRP3 and TXNIP, and activated the NLRP3 inflammasome. DNase I alleviated the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome, regulated the immune cell infiltration, and accelerated wound healing. Conclusions NETs contribute to the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and sustained inflammatory response in the diabetic wound. NET digestion by DNase I alleviated the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and accelerated wound healing. Applicability of Research to Practice

Abstract Persistent inflammatory response in the diabetic wound impairs the healing process, resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. Mounting evidence indicate that the activation of Nod-like receptor protein (NLRP) 3 inflammasome in macrophages (MΦ) contributes to the sustained inflammatory response and impaired wound healing associated with diabetes. However, the main trigger of NLRP3 inflammasome in the wounds is not known. Neutrophils, as sentinels of the innate immune system and key stimulators of MΦ, are immune cells that play the main role in the early phase of healing. Neutrophils release extracellular traps (NETs) as defense against pathogens. On the other hand, NETs induce tissue damage. NETs have been detected in the diabetic wound and implicated in the impaired healing process, but the mechanism of NETs suspend wound healing and its role in fostering inflammatory dysregulation are elusive. Here, we report that NLRP3 and NETs production are elevated in human and rat diabetic wounds. NETs overproduced in the diabetic wounds triggered NLRP3 inflammasome activation and IL-1β release in MΦ. Furthermore, NETs up-regulated NLRP3 and pro-IL-1β levels via the TLR-4/TLR-9/NF-κB signaling pathway. They also elicited the generation of reactive oxygen species, which facilitated the association between NLRP3 and thioredoxin-interacting protein, and activated the NLRP3 inflammasome. In addition, NET digestion by DNase I alleviated the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome, regulated the immune cell infiltration, and accelerated wound healing in diabetic rat model. These findings illustrate a new mechanism by which NETs contribute to the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome and sustained inflammatory response in the diabetic wound.

Background. Circulating micro-RNAs are differentially expressed in various tissues and could be considered as potential regulatory biomarkers for T2DM and related complications, such as chronic wounds. Aim. In the current study, we investigated whether ginger extract enriched with [6]-gingerol-fractions either alone or in combination with vitamin D accelerates diabetic wound healing and explores underlying molecular changes in the expression of miRNA and their predicted role in diabetic wound healing. Methods. Diabetic wounded mice were treated with [6]-gingerol-fractions (GF) (25 mg/kg of body weight) either alone or in combination with vitamin D (100 ng/kg per day) for two weeks. Circulating miRNA profile, fibrogenesis markers, hydroxyproline (HPX), fibronectin (FN), and collagen deposition, diabetic control variables, FBS, HbA1c, C-peptide, and insulin, and wound closure rate and histomorphometric analyses were, respectively, measured at days 3, 6, 9, and 15 by RT–PCR and immunoassay analysis. Results. Treatment of diabetic wounds with GF and vitamin D showed significant improvement in wound healing as measured by higher expression levels of HPX, FN, collagen, accelerated wound closure, complete epithelialization, and scar formation in short periods (11-13 days, (P<0.01). On a molecular level, three circulating miRNAs, miR-155, miR-146a, and miR-15a, were identified in diabetic and nondiabetic skin wounds by PCR analysis. Lower expression in miR-155 levels and higher expression of miR-146a and miR-15a levels were observed in diabetic skin wounds following treatment with gingerols fractions and vitamin D for 15 days. The data showed that miRNAs, miR-146a, miR-155, and miR-15a, correlated positively with the expression levels of HPX, FN, and collagen and negatively with FBS, HbA1c, C-peptide, and insulin in diabetic wounds following treatment with GF and /or vitamin D, respectively. Conclusion. Treatment with gingerols fractions (GF) and vitamin D for two weeks significantly improves delayed diabetic wound healing. The data showed that vitamin D and gingerol activate vascularization, fibrin deposition (HPX, FN, and collagen), and myofibroblasts in such manner to synthesize new tissues and help in the scar formation. Accordingly, three miRNAs, miR-155, miR-146a, and miR-15, as molecular targets, were identified and significantly evaluated in wound healing process. It showed significant association with fibrin deposition, vascularization, and reepithelialization process following treatment with GF and vitamin D. It proposed having anti-inflammatory action and promoting new tissue formation via vascularization process during the wound healing. Therefore, it is very interesting to consider miRNAs as molecular targets for evaluating the efficiency of nondrug therapy in the regulation of wound healing process.

: Chronic wound healing remains a complicated issue in the world's scientific health society. Alterations in the human body conditions such as biochemical, immunological, and physiological states may lead to non-healing wounds, making the treatment an insurmountably long and expensive procedure. Diabetes mellitus disposes the body to many complicated conditions while preventing diabetic wounds away from the normal wound-healing process. As topical administration is a favorable route of treating wounds, here, in this article, different topical materials and their roles are briefly reviewed.

ABSTRACTBesides regulating glucose levels, insulin has been reported to participate actively in many other functions, including modulating inflammatory reactions. In this study we investigated how topical insulin application would affect the diabetic wound healing process. We found that the excessive expression of insulin-degrading enzyme led to insufficient insulin levels in diabetic skin during wound healing, which ultimately reduced the recovery rate of diabetic wounds. We confirmed that topical insulin application could reverse the impaired inflammation reaction in the diabetic wound environment and promote healing of diabetic wounds. Our study revealed that insulin promoted apoptosis of neutrophils and subsequently triggered polarization of macrophages. Both in vivo and in vitro studies verified that insulin re-established phagocytosis function and promoted the process of phagocytosis-induced apoptosis in neutrophils. Furthermore, we found that insulin treatment also promoted efferocytosis of the apoptosed neutrophils by macrophages, and thus induced macrophages to change their polarization state from M1 to M2. In conclusion, our studies proved that the exogenous application of insulin could improve diabetic wound healing via the restoration of the inflammatory response.

Non-healing diabetic wound is one of the most common complications for diabetic patients. Chronic hypoxia is among the prominent factors that delay the wound healing process. Therefore, sustained oxygenation to alleviate hypoxia is hypothesized to promote diabetic wound healing. Yet it cannot be achieved by current clinical approaches including hyperbaric oxygen therapy. Herein, we developed a sustained oxygenation system consisting of oxygen-release microspheres and a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-scavenging hydrogel. The hydrogel was used to capture the ROS that is elevated in the diabetic wounds, and that may be generated due to oxygen release. The sustainedly released oxygen augmented survival and migration of keratinocytes and dermal fibroblasts; promoted angiogenic growth factor expression, and angiogenesis in the diabetic wounds; and decreased M1 macrophage density. These effects led to a significant increase of wound closure rate. These findings reveal that sustained oxygenation alone without using drugs is capable of healing diabetic wounds.

Abstract Diabetic wounds are of profound clinical importance. Despite immense efforts directed towards its management, it results in the development of amputations, following a diagnosis of diabetic foot. With a better understanding of the complexities of the microbalance involved in the healing process, researchers have developed advanced methods for the management of wounds as well as diagnostic tools (especially, for wound infections) to be delivered to clinics sooner. In this review, we address the newer developments that hope to drive the transition from bench to bedside in the coming decade.

Diabetic wound healing is associated with impaired function and reduced numbers of myofibroblasts, a heterogeneous cell population with varying capacities to promote repair. To determine how diabetes alters myofibroblast composition, we performed flow cytometry and spatial tissue analysis of myofibroblast subsets throughout the healing process in diabetic (db/db) and control (db/+) mouse skin. We observed reduced numbers of profibrotic SCA1+; CD34+; CD26+ myofibroblasts in diabetic wounds five days after injury, with decreased expression of fibrosis-associated genes compared to myofibroblasts from db/+ mouse wounds. While the abundance of myofibroblasts remained reduced in db/db mouse wounds compared to controls, the altered myofibroblast heterogeneity and gene expression in diabetic mice was improved seven days after injury. The natural correction of myofibroblast composition and gene expression in db/db wound beds temporally corresponds with a macrophage phenotypic switch. Correlation analysis from individual wound beds revealed that wound healing in control mice is associated with CD206+ macrophages, while the rescued myofibroblast phenotypes in diabetic wounds are correlated with increased CD301b+ macrophage numbers. These data demonstrate how diabetes impacts specific subsets of myofibroblasts and indicate that signaling capable of rescuing impaired diabetic wound healing could be different from signals that regulate wound healing under nonpathological conditions.

Proliferation And Migration

: Diabetes is a chronic metabolic disorder of endocrine system characterized by increase in blood glucose level. Several factors such as pancreatic damage, oxidative stress, infection, genetic factor, obesity, liver dysfunction play a vital role in pathogenesis of diabetes which further lead to serious diabetic complications. Diabetic wound is one such complication where the wound formation occurs, especially due to pressure and its healing process is disrupted due to factors such as hyperglycemia, neuropathy, nephropathy, peripheral vascular disease, reduction of blood flow, atherosclerosis, impaired fibroblast. Process of wound healing is delayed due to different abnormalities like alteration in nitric oxide level, increase in aldose reductase, sorbitol and fructose. Therefore, diabetic wound requires more time to heal as compare to normal wound. Healing time is delayed in diabetic wound due to many factors such as stress, decreased oxygenation supply, infection, decreased blood flow, impaired proliferation and migration rate, impaired growth factor production, impaired keratinocytes proliferation and migration, and altered vascular endothelial mediators. The current treatment for diabetic wound includes wound patches, oxygenation therapy, hydrogel patches, gene therapy, laser therapy, and stem cell therapy. Medications with phytoconstituents is also one way to manage diabetic wound, but it is not more effective for quick healing. The objective of this review is to understand the potential of various management options which are available for diabetic wound, with a special focus on biological cells.

AbstractEndoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) and endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) are well-established therapeutics for gastrointestinal neoplasias, but complications after EMR/ESD, including bleeding and perforation, result in additional treatment morbidity and even threaten the lives of patients. Thus, designing biomaterials to treat gastric bleeding and wound healing after endoscopic treatment is highly desired and remains a challenge. Herein, a series of injectable pH-responsive self-healing adhesive hydrogels based on acryloyl-6-aminocaproic acid (AA) and AA-g-N-hydroxysuccinimide (AA-NHS) were developed, and their great potential as endoscopic sprayable bioadhesive materials to efficiently stop hemorrhage and promote the wound healing process was further demonstrated in a swine gastric hemorrhage/wound model. The hydrogels showed a suitable gelation time, an autonomous and efficient self-healing capacity, hemostatic properties, and good biocompatibility. With the introduction of AA-NHS as a micro-cross-linker, the hydrogels exhibited enhanced adhesive strength. A swine gastric hemorrhage in vivo model demonstrated that the hydrogels showed good hemostatic performance by stopping acute arterial bleeding and preventing delayed bleeding. A gastric wound model indicated that the hydrogels showed excellent treatment effects with significantly enhanced wound healing with type I collagen deposition, α-SMA expression, and blood vessel formation. These injectable self-healing adhesive hydrogels exhibited great potential to treat gastric wounds after endoscopic treatment.
