摘要:
Methods of accelerating wound healing in diabetic subjects using autologous cell grafts treated to specifically inhibit Protein Kinase C delta (PKC6), as well as cells and compositions for use in these methods. Provided herein are methods for preparing cells for application to a wound in a diabetic subject. The methods include incubating the cells in the presence of an effective amount of a PKC6 inhibitor.
摘要:
A method of determining a level of hypoglycemic unawareness displayed by a patient is provided. The method includes maintaining, in a data storage device in communication with one or more processors, a data structure including one or more glucose concentrations correlated to one or more subject prompts. The method also includes receiving, by the one or more processors, a glucose concentration. The method includes determining, by the one or more processors, a query based upon the received glucose concentration and the data structure. The method includes transmitting, to a user interface device in communication with the one or more processors, the query. The method includes receiving, by the one or more processors, a patient response to the transmitted query. The method includes determining, by the one or more processors, level of hypoglycemic unawareness of the patient based at least upon the patient response.
