  • Diabetes increases p53-mediated apoptosis following ischemia.

    Jazayeri L, Callaghan MJ, Grogan RH, Hamou CD, Thanik V, Ingraham CR, Capell BC, Pelo CR, Gurtner GC. Plast Reconstr Surg. 2008; 121 (4): 1135-43

    Diabetes impairs the ability of tissue to respond adequately to ischemia. The underlying mechanisms contributing to this impaired response remain unknown. Because increases in apoptosis have been linked to a spectrum of diabetic complications, the authors examined whether programmed cell death is involved in the pathogenesis of poor diabetic tissue responses to ischemia.
