Dysregulation of monocyte/macrophage phenotype in wounds of diabetic mice

Mirza, Rita, Koh, Timothy J.·2011·Cytokine

Abstract

The hypothesis of this study was that cells of the monocyte/macrophage lineage (Mo/Mp) exhibit an impaired transition from pro-inflammatory to pro-healing phenotypes in wounds of diabetic mice, which contributes to deficient healing. Mo/Mp isolated from excisional wounds in non-diabetic db/+ mice exhibited a pro-inflammatory phenotype on day 5 post-injury, with high level expression of the pro-inflammatory molecules interleukin-1β, matrix metalloprotease-9 and inducible nitric oxide synthase. Wound Mo/Mp exhibited a less inflammatory phenotype on day 10 post-injury, with decreased expression of the pro-inflammatory molecules and increased expression of the alternative activation markers CD206 and CD36. In contrast, in db/db mice, the pro-inflammatory phenotype persisted through day 10 post-injury and was associated with reduced expression of insulin-like growth factor-1, transforming growth factor-β1 and vascular endothelial growth factor. Reduced levels of these growth factors in wounds of db/db mice may have contributed to impaired wound closure, reduced granulation tissue formation, angiogenesis and collagen deposition. The persistent pro-inflammatory wound Mo/Mp phenotype in db/db mice may have resulted from elevated levels of pro-inflammatory interleukin-1β and interferon-γ and reduced levels of anti-inflammatory interleukin-10 in the wound environment. Our findings are consistent with the hypothesis that dysregulation of Mo/Mp phenotypes contributes to impaired healing of diabetic wounds.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
