Project description:We show that a combinatorial upregulation of SOX2 and hyperglycemia in cutaneous keratinocytes triggers a pro-healing signature and increased neutrophil chemoattraction, putatively by Ccr2, Ccr5, and Csf3r signaling. Neutrophil depletion and deregulation through the TREM1/FOXM1 pathway are directly implicated in diabetic foot ulcer (DFU) pathophysiology. Our results highlight the role of neutrophil recruitment in wound healing and can be used to explore potential therapeutic targets for DFUs in patients.

Project description:Impaired healing of diabetic wounds causes significant morbidity and mortality. This study aimed to identify novel mechanisms of diabetic wound healing defects and test a therapeutic intervention using diabetic mouse and pig models. We found Smad7 transgene expression in mouse epidermis promoting wound healing in diabetic db/db mice, with reductions in obesity and blood glucose. To isolate effects of Smad7 on wounds, we created a Smad7-based biologic (Tat-PYC-Smad7) that penetrates wound cells. Topical application of Tat-PYC-Smad7 to diabetic pig and mouse wounds accelerated healing compared to controls. RNAseq analysis of mouse wound samples showed reduced TGFβ/NFκB signaling, leading to faster re-epithelialization and better extracellular matrix remodeling. Tat-PYC-Smad7 also attenuated neutrophil degranulation and NETosis by blocking histone 3 citrullination and inhibiting myeloperoxidase activities. Our study reveals that Tat-PYC-Smad7 promotes diabetic wound healing by targeting keratinocytes and neutrophils, providing insight into cellular mechanisms of diabetic wound healing defects targetable by Smad7-based therapy.

Project description:Severe angiopathy is a major driver for diabetes associated secondary complications. Knowledge on underlying mechanisms essential for advanced therapies to attenuate these pathologies is limited. Injection of ABCB5+ stromal precursors (SPs) at the edge of non-healing diabetic wounds in a murine db/db model, closely mirroring human type II diabetes, profoundly accelerates wound closure. Strikingly, enhanced angiogenesis was substantially enforced by the release of the ribonuclease angiogenin from ABCB5+ SPs. This compensates for the profoundly reduced angiogenin expression in non-treated murine and human chronic diabetic wounds. Silencing of angiogenin in ABCB5+ SPs prior to injection significantly reduced angiogenesis, reduced numbers of M2 macrophages and delayed wound closure in diabetic db/db mice implying an unprecedented key role for angiogenin in tissue regeneration in diabetes. These data hold significant promise for further refining SPs-based therapies of non-healing diabetic foot ulcers and other pathologies with impaired angiogenesis.

Project description:Chronic wounds are a common and costly complication of diabetes, where multifactorial defects contribute to dysregulated skin repair, inflammation, tissue damage, and infection. We previously showed that aspects of the diabetic foot ulcer microbiota were correlated with poor healing outcomes, but many microbial species recovered remain uninvestigated with respect to wound healing. Here we focused onAlcaligenes faecalis, a Gram-negative bacterium that is frequently recovered from chronic wounds but rarely causes infection. Treatment of diabetic wounds withA. faecalisaccelerated healing during early stages. We investigated the underlying mechanisms and found thatA. faecalistreatment promotes re-epithelialization of diabetic keratinocytes, a process which is necessary for healing but deficient in chronic wounds. Overexpression of matrix metalloproteinases in diabetes contributes to failed epithelialization, and we found thatA. faecalistreatment balances this overexpression to allow proper healing. This work uncovers a mechanism of bacterial-driven wound repair and provides a foundation for the development of microbiota-based wound interventions.

Project description:Wound healing is a multi-step process to rapidly restore barrier function. This process is often impaired in diabetic patients resulting in chronic wounds and amputation. We previously found that paradoxical activation of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathway via topical administration of the BRAF inhibitor vemurafenib accelerates wound healing by activating keratinocyte proliferation and reepithelialization pathways in healthy mice. Herein, we investigated whether this wound healing acceleration also occurs in impaired diabetic wounds and found that topical vemurafenib not only improves wound healing in a murine diabetic wound model, but unexpectedly promotes hair follicle regeneration. Neogenic hair follicles expressing Sox-9, CD34 and K15 were found in wounds of diabetic and non-diabetic mice, and their formation can be prevented by blocking downstream MEK signaling. Thus, topically applied BRAF inhibitors may accelerate wound healing, and promote the restoration of improved skin architecture in both normal and impaired wounds.

Project description:The aim of this experiment was measure the influence of age on cutaneous wound healing using human subjects. Increaded age has been associated with delayed wound healing in mouse models and in humans. Gene expression was compared between excisional biopsy wounds from young and old subjects.

Project description:The management of antibiotic-resistant, bacterial biofilm infections in chronic skin wounds is a significant clinical challenge. Despite advances in diagnosis, many patients do not derive benefit from current anti-infective/antibiotic therapies. Here we report a novel class of epoxy-tiglianes and demonstrate their antimicrobial activity (modifying bacterial growth and inducing biofilm disruption), with structure/activity relationships established against important human pathogens. In vitro, the lead candidate, EBC-1013 stimulated PKC-dependent neutrophil ROS induction and NETosis, and increased expression of wound healing associated cytokines, chemokines and antimicrobial peptides in keratinocytes and fibroblasts. In vivo, topical EBC-1013 induced rapid resolution of infection with increased matrix remodelling in acute thermal injuries. In chronically-infected, diabetic wounds, treatment induced cytokine/chemokine production, inflammatory cell recruitment and complete healing (in 6/7 wounds) with ordered keratinocyte differentiation. These results highlight a non-antibiotic approach involving contrasting, orthogonal mechanisms of action: targeted biofilm disruption and innate immune induction in the treatment of chronic wounds.

Project description:Diabetic wound infections have poor healing outcomes due to the presence of numerous pathogens in addition to an impaired immune response. Group B Streptococcus (GBS) is one of the most commonly isolated bacteria from diabetic wound infections, but virulence mechanisms GBS uses during these infections have not been investigated. Here, we developed a new murine model of GBS diabetic wound infection to determine how GBS establishes infection and persists in the wound environment. Using dual RNA sequencing, we demonstrate that GBS infection of diabetic wounds triggers an inflammatory response, leading to increased transcript levels of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines as well as markers of neutrophil degranulation such as myeloperoxidase, calprotectin, and elastase. We then confirm that diabetic wounds infected with GBS have significantly higher abundance of Il-1b, KC (CXCL1), myeloperoxidase, calprotectin and elastase in wound tissues than uninfected controls . When examining how GBS adapts to this hyper-inflammatory environment we find that GBS upregulates numerous virulence factors including the surface plasminogen-binding protein pbsP, the nuclease nucA, the cyl operon which is responsible for hemolysin production and pigmentation as well as numerous effectors of type VII secretion. In addition, we recovered multiple hyper-pigmented/hemolytic GBS colonies from the murine diabetic wound environment which encode mutations in the two-component system covRS. We then go on to demonstrate that a mutant in cylE, which is repressed by CovR, is attenuated in diabetic wound infection. Finally, we examine the most highly upregulated gene pbsP in diabetic wound infection and find that PbsP is necessary for diabetic wound infection via adherence to the skin and promotion of inflammation.
