ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Diabetes mellitus (DM) impairs wound healing. The aim was to determine whether DM influences mitochondrial respiration in wounded skin (WS) and non-wounded skin (NWS), in a pre-clinical wound healing model of streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes.METHODS:
Six weeks after diabetes induction, two wounds were created in the back of C57BL/J6 mice. Using high-resolution respirometry (HRR), oxygen flux was measured, in WS and NWS, using two substrate-uncoupler-inhibitor titration protocols, at baseline (day 0), day 3 and 10 post-wounding, in STZ-DM and non-diabetic (NDM) mice. Flux control ratios for the oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) capacity were calculated.RESULTS:
A significant increase in mitochondrial respiration was observed in STZ-DM skin compared to control skin at baseline. The OXPHOS capacity was decreased in WS under diabetes at day 3 post-wounding (inflammation phase). However, at day 10 post-wounding (remodeling phase), the OXPHOS capacity was higher in WS from STZ-DM compared to NDM mice, and compared to NWS from STZ-DM mice. A significant relative contribution of pyruvate, malate and glutamate (PMG) oxidation to the OXPHOS capacity was observed in WS compared to NWS from STZ-DM mice, at day 10, while the relative contribution of fatty acid oxidation to the OXPHOS capacity was higher in NWS. The OXPHOS capacity is altered in WS from STZ-DM compared to NDM mice across the healing process, and so is the substrate contribution in WS and NWS from STZ-DM mice, at each time point.CONCLUSION:
HRR may be a sensitive tool to evaluate the underlying mechanisms of tissue repair during wound healing.Palabras clave
