Diabetes impairs wound healing by Dnmt1-dependent dysregulation of hematopoietic stem cells differentiation towards macrophages

Type 2 diabetes is associated with impaired wound healing, which can lead to limb loss. Here, the authors show that in Type 2 diabetic mouse models, Dnmt1 is upregulated in hematopoietic stem cells, leading to impaired differentiation towards macrophages, reduced macrophage infiltration in the wound...
