Task: Question Generation
Input (English): Impaired diabetes wound healing can often lead to serious complications and remains a major health concern due to the lack of effective therapeutic approaches. Compromised angiogenesis, disrupted growth factor and cytokine activity are all attributable to diabetic wound healing impairment. The skin-derived precursors (SKPs) have been shown to differentiate into vascular and nerve cells, both of which are crucial components for wound repair. Given their easy accessibility and multipotency, the SKPs were proposed as an ideal therapeutic candidate for diabetic wound healing. Since the efficacy of cell therapy is limited by poor cell survival, collagen sponge was employed for better SKPs delivery.', 'SKPs were isolated and transplanted directly to the wound areas of diabetic mice in the absence and presence of collagen sponge. The effects of SKPs and/or collagen sponge on diabetic wound healing were examined histologically as well as immunostaining of isolectin and α-SMA. Mechanisms via which the SKPs facilitate wound healing were then investigated by transplanting SKPs that have been pre-labelled with a fluorescence dye, Dil. Expression patterns of Dil and an SKP marker, nestin, was also examined.
Output (English): Does co-Transplantation of Skin-Derived Precursors and Collagen Sponge facilitate Diabetic Wound Healing by Promoting Local Vascular Regeneration?
