MicroRNA-126: a promising biomarker for angiogenesis of diabetic wounds treated with negative pressure wound therapy.

ABSTRACT: Background:Negative pressure wound therapy represents an effective therapy to treat nonhealing diabetic wounds by promoting angiogenesis, of which the mechanism hasn't been investigated thoroughly. Growing evidence suggests that miRNAs hold great potential to be clinical biomarkers, and miR-126 is an essential angiogenesis regulator in diabetic wound repair. Purpose:Our study aims to explore the effect of NPWT on the expression of miR-126 in the wound tissue and plasma of diabetic rat models and the association between circulating miR-126 and two quantitative indexes of angiogenesis. Methods:Full-thickness excisional wounds were created on the back of diabetic rats. Measure the wound closure and collect the wound tissue and blood for H&E, immunohistochemistry, Western blot and RT-PCR. Here we demonstrated that significantly increased capillary density and arteriolar density in the NPWT group at each specified time-point. Results:In the NPWT group, miR-126 expression was significantly increased on days 3, 5, 7, and 9 (P<0.05). Furthermore, statistically significant increases in VEGF mRNA and protein expression and p-ERK expression, as well as decreased SPRED1 expression, were noted upon treatment with NPWT on day 9. Our data revealed that miR-126 expression in the wound and plasma was significantly associated (P<0.05). Moreover, a positive correlation was also detected between increased levels of circulating miR-126 and arteriolar density, as well as capillary density (P<0.05). Conclusion:The study suggested that miR-126 was upregulated by NPWT and could represent a promising monitoring tool for angiogenesis in diabetic wounds treated with NPWT.

Project description:BackgroundIn August 2010, the Federal Joint Committee (G-BA) decided that negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) would not be reimbursable in German ambulatory care. This decision was based on reports from the Institute for Quality and Efficiency in Health Care (IQWiG), which concluded that there is no convincing evidence in favor of NPWT. The aim of this diabetic foot study (DiaFu study) is to evaluate whether the clinical, safety and economic results of NPWT are superior to the results of standard wound treatment.Methods/designThe DiaFu study is designed as a national, multicenter, randomized controlled clinical superiority trial with a special focus on outpatient care in Germany. Competent patients in inpatient and outpatient care suffering from a chronic diabetic foot wound for a minimum of four weeks may be included in the study. The trial evaluates the treatment outcome of the application of a technical medical device which is based on the principle of NPWT (intervention group) in comparison to standard moist wound therapy (control group). All treatment systems used in the intervention group bear the symbol of free trade capacity in the European Union (CE mark) and will be operated within normal conditions of clinical routine and according to manufacturer's instructions. Primary endpoints are the time to complete wound healing and the rate of wound healing achieved in each group within the maximum study treatment time of 16 weeks. Primary endpoints will be confirmed by blinded assessment of wound photographs.DiscussionThe DiaFu study will provide solid evidence regarding the efficacy and effectiveness of NPWT until 31 December 2014, the date when G-BA plans to decide on future reimbursement of NPWT in both ambulatory and in-hospital care. The study is designed to comply with all quality requirements of G-BA and IQWiG and will contribute to evidence-based wound care in Germany. The study has been initiated by the statutory health insurance companies in Germany and is co-funded by two manufacturers of NPWT systems.Trial registrationClinical Trials.gov registration number: NCT01480362 (date of registration: 23 November 2011).German Clinical Trials Register number: DRKS00003347 (date of registration: 22 November 2011).
