The changes of MMPs levels in individuals with diabetic ulcers. (MMPs are influential regulators in DFUs, whose expressions are diverse in the wound fluid, skin tissue, and blood of patients. The correlations have been observed between MMPs and physiological as well as pathological processes of DFUs, involving COL deposition, inflammatory response, oxidative stress, and bacterial infection. The MMPs in red are increased in individuals with DFUs, while the MMPs in green are decreased in individuals with DFUs.).
