Photobiomodulation, alone or combined with adipose-derived stem cells, reduces inflammation by modulation of microRNA-146a and interleukin-1 ß in a delayed-healing infected wound in diabetic rats

AbstractDiabetic wounds are categorized by chronic inflammation, leading to the development of diabetic foot ulcers, which cause amputation and death. Herewith, we examined the effect of photobiomodulation (PBM) plus allogeneic diabetic adipose tissue-derived stem cells (ad-ADS) on stereological parameters and expression levels of interleukin (IL)-1 ß and microRNA (miRNA)-146a in the inflammatory (day 4) and proliferation (day 8) stages of wound healing in an ischemic infected (with 2×107 colony-forming units of methicillin-resistantStaphylococcus aureus) delayed healing wound model (IIDHWM) in type I diabetic (TIDM) rats. There were five groups of rats: group 1 control (C); group 2 (CELL) in which rat wounds received 1 ×106 ad-ADS; group 3 (CL) in which rat wounds received the ad-ADS and were subsequently exposed to PBM(890 nm, 80 Hz, 3.5 J/cm2, in vivo); group 4 (CP) in which the ad-ADS preconditioned by the PBM(630 nm + 810 nm, 0.05 W, 1.2 J/cm2, 3 times) were implanted into rat wounds; group 5 (CLP) in which the PBM preconditioned ad-ADS were implanted into rat wounds, which were then exposed to PBM. On both days, significantly better histological results were seen in all experimental groups except control. Significantly better histological results were observed in the ad-ADS plus PBM treatment correlated to the ad-ADS alone group (p<0.05). Overall, PBM preconditioned ad-ADS followed by PBM of the wound showed the most significant improvement in histological measure...
