项目摘要/摘要
2型糖尿病(T2D)患者的不可愈合伤口是发病率和死亡率的主要原因,并且
以惊人的速度增长。T2D患者伤口愈合失败是最常见的原因
截肢在美国,5年死亡率接近50%。因此,迫切需要理解
T2D的伤口愈合缺陷,以开发有针对性的治疗方法。公布的数据来自我们的实验室和我的新
初步数据表明,糖尿病创面巨噬细胞中的TLR4信号上调了Notch配体,
DLL4,并促进急性伤口的炎症。此外,在糖尿病创面巨噬细胞中,TLR4/DLL4

TLR4启动子上的甲基转移酶促进TLR4信号的增加。这增加了TLR4信令(通过
MyD88)上调糖尿病伤口中DLL4的表达MφS,并推动糖尿病的炎症和病理愈合。
我们建议的研究将建立TLR4是通过MLL1介导的机制在表观遗传上上调的

英文摘要
PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT
Non-healing wounds in patients with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) are a major cause of morbidity and mortality and are
increasing at an alarming rate. Failure of wound healing in T2D patients represents the most common cause of
amputation in the US with a 5-year mortality rate of nearly 50%. Thus, a critical need exists for understanding the
wound healing defects in T2D in order to develop targeted therapies. Published data from our lab and my new
preliminary data has identified that TLR4 signaling in diabetic wound macrophages upregulates the Notch ligand,
DLL4, and promotes inflammation in acute wounds. Further, in diabetic wound macrophages, the TLR4/DLL4
pathway is upregulated secondary to an epigenetic mechanism whereby increased MLL1, a histone
methyltransferase, on the Tlr4 promoter promotes increased TLR4 signaling. This increased TLR4 signaling (via
MyD88) upregulates DLL4 in diabetic wound Mφs and drives inflammation and pathologic healing in diabetes.
Our proposed studies will establish that TLR4 is epigenetically upregulated via an MLL1-mediated mechanism in
diabetic wound macrophages and directly regulates DLL4 expression. These results have led to our hypothesis
that increased TLR4 signaling in diabetic wound macrophages increases DLL4 which promotes chronic
inflammation and non-healing in diabetic wounds. Our data suggest that diabetic wound repair may be improved
via locally-targeted treatment with TLR4 inhibitor(s) and/or MLL1 inhibitor(s). To test our hypotheses, we will
pursue the following Aims: Aim 1: To examine the TLR4-dependent regulation of DLL4 in diabetic wound
macrophages in acute and chronic diabetic murine wound models. Aim 2: To determine if local
therapeutic blockade of TLR4 or MLL1 improves diabetic wound repair in acute and chronic murine
wound models.
