Abstract
Wound healing in diabetic ulcers remains a significant clinical challenge, primarily due to bacterial infection and impaired angiogenesis. Periplaneta americana extract (PAE) has been widely used to treat diabetic wounds, yet its underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. This study aimed to elucidate these mechanisms by analyzing long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) expressions in the wound tissues from diabetic anal fistula patients treated with or without PAE, using high-throughput sequencing. Peripheral blood monocytes from patients were differentiated into M0 macrophages with human macrophage colony-stimulating factor (hM-CSF) and subsequently polarized into M1 macrophages with lipopolysaccharide. The results indicated that LINC01133 and SLAMF9 were downregulated in wound tissues of patients treated with PAE. Furthermore, PAE suppressed M1 macrophage polarization and enhanced human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis. These effects were diminished when LINC01133 or SLAMF9 were overexpressed. Mechanistically, LINC01133 was shown to upregulate SLAMF9 through interaction with ELAVL1. Overexpression of SLAMF9 reversed the effects of LINC01133 silencing on macrophage polarization and HUVEC functions. In conclusion, PAE facilitates the healing of infected diabetic ulcers by downregulating the LINC01133/SLAMF9 pathway.
