Wound Inflammation in Diabeticob/obMice

Abstract: This study focused on the regulation of prostaglandin (PG) production in diabetes-impaired wound tissue. Cyclooxygenase (COX)-1 and -2 expression and activity were severely dysregulated in chronic wounds of diabetic ob/ob mice. Those wounds were characterized by a reduced expression of COX-1 and the presence of strongly elevated levels of COX-2 when compared with conditions observed in healthy animals. Resolution of the diabetic and impaired wound-healing phenotype by systemic administration of leptin into ob/… Show more

“…45 However, overproduction of ROS leads to excessive oxidative stress and results in cellular dysfunction and functional alterations of DNA, lipids, and proteins. 17,45,46 The high glucose concentration in diabetic hyperglycemia is a critical initiating factor for ROS generation. 47 In this regard, db/db macrophages generated much more ROS than db/ϩ macrophages, which is consistent with a previous report.…”

“…Wound M were the major source of Cox-2 expression in the wounds of ob/ob mice (Kä mpfer et al, 2005). Cox-2 represents a marker for classically activated proinflammatory M1-type M, but not for their alternatively activated M2-type M counterparts (Mosser and Edwards, 2008).…”

“…32 Indeed, also the Cox-2 enzyme was markedly dysregulated, at both the mRNA (Figure 10, A and B) and protein ( Figure 10C) level. Notably, Cox-2 protein, elevated in particular during late acute repair (day 7), was mainly expressed in wound margin keratinocytes ( Figure 10D), which appeared to be the main cellular source of the enzyme in DTox-treated mice despite its localization in remaining wound macrophages in control mice ( Figure 10D, left panels).…”
