ABSTRACT
C-X-C chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) is an alpha-chemokine receptor specific for stromal cell-derived factor 1 (SDF-1 also called CXCL12). The antagonist of CXCR4 can mobilize CD34+ cells and hematopoietic stem cells from bone marrow within several hours, and it has an efficacy on diabetes ulcer through acting on the SDF-1/CXCR4 axis. In this study, we investigated for the first time whether the antagonist of CXCR4 (Plerixafor/AMD3100) delivered on acellular dermal matrix (ADM) may accelerate diabetes-impaired wound healing. ADM scaffolds were fabricated from nondiabetic mouse skin through decellularization processing and incorporated with AMD3100 to construct ADM-AMD3100 scaffold. Full-thickness cutaneous wound in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetic mice were treated with ADM, AMD3100, or ADM-AMD3100. 21 days after treatment, wound closure in ADM-AMD3100-treated mice was more complete than ADM group and AMD3100 group, and it was accompanied by thicker collagen formation. Correspondingly, diabetic mice treated with ADM-AMD3100 demonstrated prominent neovascularization (higher capillary density and vascular smooth muscle actin), which were accompanied by up-regulated mRNA levels of SDF-1 and enhanced migration of CXCR4 in the granulation tissue. Our results demonstrate that ADM scaffold provide perfect niche for loading AMD3100 and ADM-AMD3100 is a promising method for diabetic wound healing mainly by increasing expression of SDF-1 and enhancing migration of CXCR4-positive cells.
