Abstract
Diabetes is a complex of genetic, metabolic, and autoimmune disorders that are characterized by hyperglycemia. Elevated apoptotic cell count following defective clearance of dead cells that can cause chronic inflammation is a hallmark of the diabetic wound. Effective dead cell clearance is a prerequisite for rapid inflammation resolution and successful recovery. Efferocytosis is a multistep process in which phagocytes engulf the dead cells. Cell body elimination is of great significance in disease and homeostasis. Recent research has clarified that diabetic wounds have an enhanced load of the apoptotic cell, which is partly attributed to the dysfunction of macrophages in apoptotic clearance at the site of the diabetic wounds. In the current work, we highlight the pathways implicated in efferocytosis, from the diagnosis of apoptotic cells to the phagocytic swallowing and the homeostatic resolution, and explain the possible pathophysiological episodes occurring when the proceeding is abrogated. Also, we describe the last development in the management of inflammation in diabetes wound and future directions of surveillance.
