Glucocorticoid-mediated induction of caveolin-1 disrupts cytoskeletal organization, inhibits cell migration and re-epithelialization of non-healing wounds

Jozic et al observe deregulated cytoskeleton components and elevated levels of cortisol and caveolin-1 in chronic wounds. They also show that inducible-keratinocyte specific Cav1 knockout or drug-induced cholesterol disruption in diabetic mice leads to accelerated wound closure suggesting a therapeu...
