Abstract
Diabetic wound is one of the most common and costly complication in diabetic patients. Hence, numerous studies have been carried out to discover a suitable approach to enhance the process of wound healing. Biological hydrogels are commonly utilized for wound healing due to their suitable properties among different materials available. Herein we investigated whether human amniotic membrane hydrogel (hAMH) loaded with human placental mesenchymal stem cells (PlaMSCs)-derived exosomes could promote healing in diabetic rats. Sixty diabetic rats were randomly assigned into the control group, hAMH group, exosome group, and hAMH+Exosome group. According to the phases of wound healing, sampling was done on days 7, 14, and 21 for further assessments. Our findings showed a significant increase in wound contraction rate, new epidermal length, fibroblast and blood vessel count, collagen density, and the levels of antioxidative factors (GSH, SOD, and CAT) in the treatment groups compared to the control group, with more pronounced effects observed in the hAMH+Exosome group. Furthermore, the levels of bFGF and VEGF gene expression significantly increased in each treatment group when compared to the control group, with the highest levels observed in the hAMH+Exosome group. This occurred as the hAMH+Exosome group showed a greater decrease in neutrophil count, the expression of TNF-α and IL-1β genes, and the levels of an oxidative factor (MDA) compared to the other groups. In summary, the combination of hAMH and PlaMSCs-derived exosomes was determined to have a more significant effect on healing diabetic wounds.
期刊介绍:
Tissue and Cell is devoted to original research on the organization of cells, subcellular and extracellular components at all levels, including the grouping and interrelations of cells in tissues and organs. The journal encourages submission of ultrastructural studies that provide novel insights into structure, function and physiology of cells and tissues, in health and disease. Bioengineering and stem cells studies focused on the description of morphological and/or histological data are also welcomed.
Studies investigating the effect of compounds and/or substances on structure of cells and tissues are generally outside the scope of this journal. For consideration, studies should contain a clear rationale on the use of (a) given substance(s), have a compelling morphological and structural focus and present novel incremental findings from previous literature.
