Background: Keratinocytes play an important role in wound healing; however, less is known about skin keratinocytes in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Therefore, this study aimed to search for the transcriptional characteristics of keratinocytes at the single-cell level from T2DM patients, and to provide experimental data for identifying the pathological mechanisms of keratinocytes under pathological conditions.

Methods: We performed single-cell RNA sequencing on the skin tissue from two T2DM patients and one patient without diabetes-induced trauma using the BD Rhapsody™ Single-Cell Analysis System.

Objectives: The mechanisms underlying the role of mast cells in wound healing have not been thoroughly studied, and even fewer data are available on studies related to mast cells in the skin of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Therefore, this study aims to explore the transcriptional characteristics of mast cells at the single-cell level in patients with T2DM and provide experimental data for studying mast cell behaviors under abnormal glucose metabolism.

Methods: Two patients with T2DM and one trauma patient without diabetes were enrolled.
