The effect of B vitamin supplementation on wound healing in type 2 diabetic mice

Abstract: The aim of this study was to test the effects of B-group vitamin supplements on wound healing in diabetic mice. The mice in the experimental group were treated daily with 1 g/L B6, 1.25 mg/L B12, and 62.5 mg/L folic acid in their drinking water. Full-thickness excision wounds were created with 6-mm skin biopsy punches. Each wound closure was digitally photographed. Beginning on day 3 after wounding, the wound area in the diabetic mice was statistically larger than that of normal mice (p<0.05 vs diabetic mice).… Show more

“…All mice were fed NIH-31 open formula diet containing 2 mg FA per kg diet (Xietong Pharmaceutical Biotechnology Co., Ltd., Jiangsu, China), which is generally recommended as the basal dietary requirement for mice (Reeves, 1997). At 8 weeks of age, 6 male (2 male per cage) and 12 female (4 female per cage) mice were randomly divided into three groups and given with de-ionized water (Qipshidze et al, 2011; Mochizuki et al, 2016) containing no FA (control), 3.75 mg/L FA (F7876, Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, United States) or 22.5 mg/L FA for 1 week. Then 2 females were caged with 1 male and allowed to mate naturally.…”

“…The relationship between B12, folic acid levels and RT side effects is also a current research topic. These vitamins are important factors in DNA metabolism and wound healing (27). It is possible that there is a relationship between acute and chronic tissue damage due to radiation and vitamin values.…”

“…Formula of the diet is supplied in Supplementary Table S1 . At 8 weeks of age, 4 males and 8 females were randomly divided into two groups and supplied with no (control) or 3.75 mg/L FA (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA) in their drinking water for one week [ 18 , 21 , 22 ]. Then, the mice were allowed to mate naturally by introducing 2 females in the cage of 1 male.…”
