Topical calcitriol application promotes diabetic corneal wound healing and reinnervation through inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome activation
Abstract
Vitamin D (VD) deficiency delays corneal wound healing in those with diabetes, which cannot be rescued with supplemental diet. Here, we employed topical calcitriol application to evaluate its efficiency in corneal wound healing and reinnervation in diabetic mice. Type 1 diabetic mice were topically administrated calcitriol, or subconjunctivally injected with NLRP3 antagonist MCC950 or IL-1β blocking antibody after epithelial debridement. Serum...
