Objective: To review the regulatory effect of microRNA (miRNA) in wound healing, which abnormal expression associates with diabetes.
Methods: The literature on miRNA associating with wound healing was reviewed and summarized.
Results: miRNA plays a key role in wound healing, including regulating inflammation, angiogenesis, granulation tissue formation, and re-epithelization.
Conclusion: Abnormal expression of miRNA may be related to delayed healing of the diabetic wound, but further research is needed to confirm it.
