Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus (T2D) is a metabolic disease which causes chronic hyperglycaemia, biochemical and cellular disorders, and organ complications [1].It predisposes to lower extremity ulcerations and modifies the healing process, leading to chronic wounds [1]. High-glucose conditions cause oxidative stress in diabetes, which, in turn, induces premature senescence [2]. Senescent cells display several changes, such as growth arrest, alterations in gene expression, and a [...]
