Sustained Inflammasome Activity in Macrophages Impairs Wound Healing in Type 2 Diabetic Humans and Mice
Open accessAbstract
The hypothesis of this study was that sustained activity of the Nod-like receptor protein (NLRP)-3 inflammasome in wounds of diabetic humans and mice contributes to the persistent inflammatory response and impaired healing characteristic of these wounds. Macrophages (Mp) isolated from wounds on diabetic humans and db/db mice exhibited sustained inflammasome activity associated with low level of expression of endogenous inflammasome inhibitors. Soluble factors in the biochemical milieu of these wounds are sufficient to activate the inflammasome, as wound-conditioned medium activates caspase-1 and induces release of interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-18 in cultured Mp via a reactive oxygen species–mediated pathway. Importantly, inhibiting inflammasome activity in wounds of db/db mice using topical application of pharmacological inhibitors improved healing of these wounds, induced a switch from proinflammatory to healing-associated Mp phenotypes, and increased levels of prohealing growth factors. Furthermore, data generated from bone marrow–transfer experiments from NLRP-3 or caspase-1 knockout to db/db mice indicated that blocking inflammasome activity in bone marrow cells is sufficient to improve healing. Our findings indicate that sustained inflammasome activity in wound Mp contributes to impaired early healing responses of diabetic wounds and that the inflammasome may represent a new therapeutic target for improving healing in diabetic individuals.

TL;DR
Sustained NLRP-3 inflammasome activity in wound macrophages from type 2 diabetic humans and db/db mice contributes to persistent inflammation and impaired healing. Blocking inflammasome activity pharmacologically or via NLRP-3/caspase-1–null bone marrow transfer improved early wound healing and shifted macrophages toward a prohealing phenotype.
Key findings
- Macrophages from chronic wounds of diabetic humans and db/db mice showed sustained inflammasome activity, with high NLRP-3, caspase-1, IL-1β, and IL-18, but low expression of endogenous inhibitors PI-9 and caspase-12. Active caspase-1 was detected in 9.9 ± 1.4% of db/db wound macrophages versus 4.8 ± 1.1% of db/+ wound macrophages.
- Wound-conditioned medium activated caspase-1 and induced IL-1β/IL-18 release in cultured human and mouse macrophages via an ROS-mediated pathway; active caspase-1 was detected in 10.5 ± 1.3% of conditioned-medium–stimulated cells versus 2.9 ± 0.7% of nonstimulated controls.
- Topical glyburide (200 μmol/L) or YVAD (20 μmol/L) in db/db wounds accelerated re-epithelialization, increased granulation tissue, reduced wound IL-1β/IL-18, increased IGF-1 and TGF-β, and shifted wound macrophage expression away from proinflammatory cytokines toward IGF-1, TGF-β, IL-10, and CD206.
- Bone marrow transfer from NLRP-3– or caspase-1–null mice to db/db mice improved re-epithelialization and granulation tissue formation and reduced wound IL-1β and IL-18, indicating bone marrow–derived inflammasome activity is sufficient to impair healing.
Methods
- Human chronic wound biopsies were collected from five type 2 diabetic patients (2 male, 3 female) with nonhealing sacral or lower-limb wounds lasting at least 3 months; mouse experiments used db/db, db/+, C57Bl/6 wild-type, NLRP-3 knockout, caspase-1 knockout, and IL-1R1 knockout mice.
- Excisional wounds were made with an 8-mm biopsy punch; treatments were applied topically every other day starting 3 days postinjury in F-127 pluronic gel, and healing was assessed on day 10 by re-epithelialization, granulation tissue, collagen, CD31, and α-smooth-muscle actin staining.
- Macrophages were isolated by magnetic depletion and CD11b selection; inflammasome activity was assessed by real-time PCR, ELISA, flow cytometry for active caspase-1, immunofluorescence, and in vitro stimulation with wound-conditioned medium plus inhibitors; data were analyzed by ANOVA or ANOVA on ranks with Student-Newman-Keuls post hoc tests, P ≤ 0.05.
Limitations
- Stated: caspase-1–null mice were also deficient in caspase-11, so bone marrow–transfer experiments could not distinguish the roles of these caspases in impaired healing.
- Stated: topical glyburide and YVAD could block inflammasome activity in keratinocytes as well as macrophages, although the authors note macrophages were the dominant IL-1β producers and bone marrow transfer was sufficient to reduce wound IL-1β/IL-18.
- Evident: the human component is limited to five wound biopsies with no human therapeutic intervention, and macrophage phenotype changes after YVAD treatment were not measured.

The db/db mouse model of type 2 diabetes is representative of human diabetic wound healing for testing inflammasome-targeted therapies.
“Diabetic db/db mice, nondiabetic db/+ controls, and C57Bl/6 wild-type controls were obtained from The Jackson Laboratory.”
“Our findings indicate that sustained inflammasome activity in wound Mp contributes to impaired early healing responses of diabetic wounds and that the inflammasome may represent a new therapeutic target for improving healing in diabetic individuals.”
The paper relies on this without support.
Bone marrow transfer from donor mice to db/db mice specifically targets the inflammasome in macrophages.
“To more specifically target the inflammasome in Mp, we used bone marrow transfer to determine the role of bone marrow cell–derived inflammasome activity in impaired healing of wounds in diabetic mice.”

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.
A language model drew the claims from the paper on 2026-10-10, under version 3 of the claim definition (model deepseek-v4.1-flash, prompt extract-v3).
A second model labelled each claim on 2026-10-10 (model jev-1.13-20260917, definition revision gold-guideline-v0.2).
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.
