Abstract

An understanding of cell interactions is needed to identify therapeutic targets for diabetic cutaneous ulcers. We explored extracellular vesicles after treatment with advanced glycation end products (AGEs-EVs) derived from macrophages that can suppress diabetic cutaneous wound healing. We found that a novel miRNA enriched in AGEs-EVs (miR-ERIA) suppresses the migration and tube formation of vascular endothelial cells by targeting helicase with zinc finger 2. miR-ERIA offers a potential therapeutic target for diabetic cutaneous ulcers.
