Overexpression of SIRT1 Promotes High Glucose–Attenuated Corneal Epithelial Wound Healing via p53 Regulation of the IGFBP3/IGF-1R/AKT Pathway

Abstract

The molecular mechanism by which SIRT1 promotes corneal epithelial wound healing was involved in an enhancement of the IGFBP3/IGF-1/AKT pathway through the deacetylation of p53. This study also suggests that SIRT1 has a protective role in the pathogenesis of diabetic keratopathy.
