Figure 1

Images of the foot wounds of at Days 1, 4, 8, and 13 post wounding (n = 6/time point). (A) The wound size of all groups stretched far apart due to edema and swelling expanded to the whole foot at Day 1 post wounding. Swelling at the foot wound of DM rats continued at Day 13, but the DM_V rats subsided at Day 8. (B) At Day 13, the wound size area of the DM_V rats was significantly smaller than those of the DM rats. The wound size of the Ctrl_V rats were significantly smaller than those in Ctrl rats at Days 8 and 13 post wounding. At Day 8, the wound size area of the DM rats was significantly larger than that in the Ctrl rats. **Significant difference.
