Abstract Background: Interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) is considered to be a mediator of infectious, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, and the kinetics of its production is relevant to understanding the pathogenesis of these diseases. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), the structurally simplest bioactive phospholipid, is necessary for homeostasis in various physiological and pathophysiological processes and plays a pivotal role in wound healing. Skin trauma can not only weaken the barrier function, but also cause pain and infection. Chronic wounds are characterized by impaired healing and uncontrolled inflammation that damages the protection of the immune system. The aim of this study is to investigate whether inflammatory factor IL-1β has an effect on LPA in the wound healing model. Results: In this study, the kinetics of IL-1β gene expression was studied in vivo and in vitro with a wound healing model by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) through LPA treatment. As a result, we found that LPA up-regulated inflammatory factor IL-1β in HaCaT cell and skin wound healing. The pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β mRNA had higher expression in LPA-treated mice group 3 days after the treatment. In vitro, after the treatment with LPA (20 μM) for 6, 12, and 24 hours, IL-1β mRNA expression increased by 61.16%, 129.39%, and 117.07%, respectively. Conclusion: These results strongly suggest that IL-1β may regulate LPA-accelerated skin wound healing. IL-1β has significant efficacy, and our observations are of interest to the development of drugs targeting LPA in skin therapy.

Wounds within the oral mucosa are known to heal more rapidly than skin wounds. Recent studies suggest that differences in the microRNAome profiles may underlie the exceptional healing that occurs in oral mucosa. Here, we test whether skin wound-healing can be accelerating by increasing the levels of oral mucosa-specific microRNAs. A panel of 57 differentially expressed high expresser microRNAs were identified based on our previously published miR-seq dataset of paired skin and oral mucosal wound-healing [Sci. Rep. (2019) 9:7160]. These microRNAs were further grouped into 5 clusters based on their expression patterns, and their differential expression was confirmed by TaqMan-based quantification of LCM-captured epithelial cells from the wound edges. Of these 5 clusters, Cluster IV (consisting of 8 microRNAs, including miR-31) is most intriguing due to its tissue-specific expression pattern and temporal changes during wound-healing. The in vitro functional assays show that ectopic transfection of miR-31 consistently enhanced keratinocyte proliferation and migration. In vivo, miR-31 mimic treatment led to a statistically significant acceleration of wound closure. Our results demonstrate that wound-healing can be enhanced in skin through the overexpression of microRNAs that are highly expressed in the privileged healing response of the oral mucosa.

Impaired wound healing is a major medical challenge, especially in diabetics. Over the centuries, the main goal of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine has been to invent biomaterials that accelerate the wound healing process. In this context, keratin-derived biomaterial is a promising candidate due to its biocompatibility and biodegradability. In this study, we evaluated an insoluble fraction of keratin containing casomorphin as a wound dressing in a full-thickness surgical skin wound model in mice (n = 20) with iatrogenically induced diabetes. Casomorphin, an opioid peptide with analgesic properties, was incorporated into keratin and shown to be slowly released from the dressing. An in vitro study showed that keratin-casomorphin dressing is biocompatible, non-toxic, and supports cell growth. In vivo experiments demonstrated that keratin-casomorphin dressing significantly (p < 0.05) accelerates the whole process of skin wound healing to the its final stage. Wounds covered with keratin-casomorphin dressing underwent reepithelization faster, ending up with a thicker epidermis than control wounds, as confirmed by histopathological and immunohistochemical examinations. This investigated dressing stimulated macrophages infiltration, which favors tissue remodeling and regeneration, unlike in the control wounds in which neutrophils predominated. Additionally, in dressed wounds, the number of microhemorrhages was significantly decreased (p < 0.05) as compared with control wounds. The dressing was naturally incorporated into regenerating tissue during the wound healing process. Applied keratin dressing favored reconstruction of more regular skin structure and assured better cosmetic outcome in terms of scar formation and appearance. Our results have shown that insoluble keratin wound dressing containing casomorphin supports skin wound healing in diabetic mice.
