ANIMAL MODELS FOR DIABETES GANGRENE: UNDERSTANDING THE ETIOLOGIES, PATHOGENESIS AND TREATMENTS Authors: Patil P* And Kakadiya J
ABSTRACT
Diabetes mellitus is one of the main problems that healthcare systems are now confronting.
Diabetes patients may have a variety of issues, including diabetic foot ulcers. A common
consequence of diabetes is diabetic foot ulcers. The complexity of diabetic mellitus has
increased during the past several decades. According to study, diabetic foot ulcers are the
most frequent reason for hospitalisation for diabetics. All forms of gangrene are brought on
by a decrease in blood flow to a specific area. A few typical causes of gangrene include
vascular problems, burns, Raynaud's syndrome, diabetes, injuries, immune system
deficiencies, etc. The four elements of the diabetic gangrene pathogenesis are as follows
Vascular, Neuropathy, Infection, and Delayed Wound Healing. The broad etiologies,
pathophysiology, investigation, and treatment of diabetic gangrene are briefly reviewed in
this paper. Additionally, we highlighted rodent models of diabetic gangrene like arachidonic
acid-induced hind limb gangrene and reliable mouse model of hindlimb gangrene.
