Development ofDiabetic Foot Ulceration DuetoPhysiological, Habitual, andBiomechanical Alterations
The breakdown of the diabetic foot has traditionally been considered to result from peripheral neuropathy and periph­eral vascular disease. As discussed before, other contributory factors such as limited joint nobility, high plantar pressures, deformities, autonomic neuropathy, and psychological fac­tors are implicated.
Peripheral vascular disease itself, even severe, does not cause foot ulceration. Minor injuries and/or infections will increase the demand for blood supply beyond the circulatory capacity. In the presence of peripheral vascular disease, the failure of the circulating blood rising in the region causes isch­emia and hypoxia, resulting in tissue destruction and develop­ment of an ischemic ulcer or gangrene [106] (Chart 13.1).
Many studies have conrmed the role of diabetic neurop­athy in the etiopathogenesis of foot ulceration. Cross­sectional data conrmed that neuropathy is present in up to 90% of foot ulcers alone or in combination with peripheral vascular disease [107]. The EURODIALE study included 1229 consecutive persons presenting with a new foot ulcer in ten European countries. At baseline, peripheral vascular dis­ease was diagnosed in 49% and diabetic neuropathy in 86% of the participants [108]. Prospective data demonstrated that neuropathy assessed by vibration perception over 25 Volts was associated with a seven-fold annual increase in the risk of ulceration in a 3-year follow-up period [109, 110]. Another large prospective study described that beyond other factors including previous ulceration, foot deformities, reduced
pedal pulses, neurological modalities like insensitivity to the 10g monolament, and a neuropathy disability score ≥6 were independently associated with almost two times higher risk of foot ulceration over a 2-year period [111]. The above data clearly suggest that neuropathy is a strong risk factor for foot ulceration. Yet, the neuropathic foot does not ulcerate spontaneously and it is the combination with other factors that lead to skin breakdown. The pathway neuropathy con­tributes to foot ulceration is depicted in Chart 13.1.
Reiber etal. used the Rothman model for causation and applied this to ulceration [112]. The model is based on the concept that a component cause (neuropathy or peripheral vascular disease) is not sufcient itself to lead to ulceration, but when component causes act together, they may result in a sufcient cause which eventually leads to ulceration. They showed that the commonest triad of component causes pres­ent in 63% of ulcers was neuropathy, foot deformity, and trauma [112]. Trauma could be intrinsic, such as repetitive stress from high pressure and/or callus, or extrinsic such as from ill-tting footwear rubbing on the skin or an object inside the shoe (e.g., drawing pin and pebble). Examples of two-component pathways to ulceration are neuropathy and mechanical trauma caused by ill-tting footwear or callus or deformities; neuropathy and thermal injury caused by hot water or heating devices; and neuropathy and chemical injury caused by “corn-cures” [111]. As trauma plays a key role in the pathogenesis of ulceration, it is important to try to minimize the risk of trauma in patients with loss of protec­tive sensation implementing preventative care such as the provision of appropriate foot care, education, and referral for podiatry treatment.

Most ulcers in diabetic patients with neuropathy occur at sites of high plantar pressures or stress [9, 11, 13]. High pres- sures are not usually found in healthy people and would result in pain during ambulation for an individual with ade­quate sensation. For example, patients with gross foot defor­mities from rheumatoid arthritis do not develop ulcers because they can feel the pain and adjust their gait to avoid bearing load on a painful area [75]. The repetitive applica­tion of high pressures and stress to the same area, usually overlying bony prominences, in the presence of neuropathy causes tissue damage that begins close to the bone [9, 91]. Callus develops as a result of increased pressure at the sur­face in order to protect the skin from further damage; in the presence of neuropathy, it is not perceived by the patient who continues his activity and if callus formation becomes exces­sive, it will contribute to higher pressure [93]. Foot deformi­ties, reduced LJM, and fat pad are usually responsible for the excessive pressures. The tips of the clawed toes can them­selves be locations of ulcers due to concentrated pressure [113, 114]. In addition, healing of plantar ulcers is prevented
as long as patients keep walking on their foot wounds, thus highlighting the key issue of mechanical off-loading. Thus, excessive and/or repetitive pressures appear to be the main causative factor for development of skin breakdown.
There are three main mechanisms that account for the occurrence of these pressures: (1) increased duration of pres­sures; (2) increased magnitude of pressures, or (3) increased number of pressures [93]. The rst mechanism includes rela­tively low pressures applied for a long period of time causing ischemia. Prolonged ischemia leads to cell death and wound formation, as has been demonstrated in a classic experiment. It should be noted that some regions of the plantar tissue become ischemic during standing and walking. Plantar pres­sure in the forefoot during walking is at least 30 times higher than the systolic blood pressure in the arterial bend and even higher at the arterioles, implying that blood ow will be occluded during gait cycle [13, 115]. Recovery from this transient ischemia can be affected by changes in microcircu­lation caused in the early course of diabetes, nutritional sta­tus, and arterial disease.

High pressures took a relatively short time to cause ulcer­ation whereas low pressures took a relatively long time. Thus, ulceration can develop at very low pressures, but may take a few days to occur. This type of offending pressure and resulting ulcers can occur with ill-tting footwear, improp­erly tted orthotics, or prolonged resting of a heel on a bed or footrest [73]. The second mechanism of tissue injury includes high pressures acting for a short-time period. This injury only happens if a large force is applied to a relatively small area of skin; this happens, for example, if a person steps on a nail. Alternatively, a “foot slap” may also conform to this mechanism. A “foot slap” indicates a reduced deceleration of the forefoot after heel strike caused by weak dorsiexion muscles [113]. It is therefore suggested that control of the velocity of the forefoot descending after heel strike by using ankle-foot orthosis could possibly help in prevention of dia­betic foot ulcers [113]. The third mechanism of injury comes from repetitions of pressure, which would lead to an equiva­lent syndrome of mechanical fatigue [93]. Mechanical fatigue is dened as failure of a structure or biological tissue at a submaximal level to maintain integrity resulting from repeated bouts of loading. This type of injury seems to occur in the insensitive skin and subcutaneous tissue of the neuro­pathic foot [115].
Thus, not only the magnitude of the plantar pressure is important in causing foot ulceration but also several other factors such as the rate of increase of pressure, duration of high pressure, and the frequency of applied pressure to the skin should be taken into account. In addition, although foot pressures may be high during a barefoot pressure assess­ment, it is important to keep in mind that it is the combina­tion of footwear, life style factors, tissue characteristics, foot pressures, and level of physical activity, which contribute to the development of foot ulceration. The effect of physical activity on development of foot ulceration is an area which deserves further exploration.
Another important issue in foot injuries is footwear. While appropriate footwear can be of great benet in pre­venting ulcers, incorrect footwear can actually cause ulcer­ation [9]. It is not uncommon for the patients with loss of protective sensation to wear a pair of shoes three sizes too small because a very tight t stimulates the pressure nerve endings and this is interpreted as a normal t [9, 113]. The EURODIALE study described that the majority of ulcers (52%) were located on the non-plantar surface of the foot and the most frequent ulcer site was the dorsal or interdigital area of the toes (32%), while the classic plantar forefoot or midfoot ulcer was present in 22% of the patients [101]. This nding implies that a large number of ulcers develops as a result of poor footwear and emphasizes the need for foot­wear education for the prevention of foot ulcers.
Kinetic Control andDiabetic Peripheral Neuropathic Patient's Balance andMobility
The musculoskeletal kinetic control is the process through which someone is able to fulll the locomotor requirements in any given task or day live activities, like gait and balance, adapting and synchronizing his neuro-musculo-skeletal sys­tem components. To manage activities of daily life, the Central Nervous System coordinates postural components which stabilize the body and the prime mover components which relate to the particular motor task on basis of an inter­nal representation of body posture, including a model of body geometry, body kinetics, and body orientation with respect to gravity. Thus, to function in daily life, an individ­ual must be able to maintain and adopt various postures, react to external disturbances, and use automatic postural responses that precede voluntary movements.
For the diabetic neuropathic person, impaired balance is one of the most common risk factors associated with falls [38]. Diabetic neuropathy may compromise postural stabil­ity since the integrity of the Kinetic Control and its adjusted proprioceptive system is a critical factor for postural stabil­ity. The balance ability, is a complex outcome that requires the integration of multiple sensorimotor and cognitive pro­cesses [99]. DPN has long been considered the most domi­nant mediator between diabetes and falls because of reduction in lower-limb somatosensation, thus, reduces the ability to detect changes in balance and make appropriate adjustments to avoid a fall [39, 121]. Furthermore, age-related deteriora­tion in those systems can disrupt the ability to maintain bal­ance [38, 99].
The kinetic control and balance are based on three sensory systems (somatosensory, visual, and vestibular), which contrib­ute the sensory information required for balance control. Peripheral neuropathy affects the sensory, motor, and auto­nomic components of the nervous system and presents as a loss of sensation, intrinsic foot muscle atrophy, and foot skin anhy­drosis [39]. That's a long term result of the affected microcircu­lation associated with poor glycemic control in type 2 diabetes, which eventually compromises those systems.
The somatosensory system provides information about the position and motion of body’s segments in relation to each other and the support surface by using proprioceptive (joint position/kinesthesia) and cutaneous (touch and vibra­tion sensitivity) inputs. Long-term hyperglycemia can lead to a progressive deterioration of sensory nerve bers in the somatosensory system and eventually to DPN.Muscle spin­dles which provide rapid information about changes in mus­cle length and the Golgi organs of tendons which sense changes in muscle tension are affected and the cutaneous mechanoreceptors which provide information about vibra-

tion and pressure sensations, as well [38]. Thus, the greater motor error at the joints (higher g forces) leads to motor con­trol decits.
The visual system provides information about the envi­ronment and body orientation. Long-term hyperglycemia affects the circulatory system of the retina and can lead to diabetic retinopathy. Older adults with type 2 diabetes and reduced contrast sensitivity have been reported to be 1.41 times more likely to fall as compared to older adults without type 2 diabetes [38].
The vestibular system provides information about head position (thus, adjusting body posture), spatial orientation, and spatio/temporal input, especially the sense of velocity/ acceleration. Long-term hyperglycemia causes inammation and reduced sensitivity of the highly active metabolic vascu­lature in the inner ear. Vestibular dysfunction has been reported to be 2.3 times more likely in those with diabetes than in those without diabetes [114]. The vestibular appara-
open and closed eyes quite bipedal stance. Loss of sensation—proprio­ception and kinesthesia, lead to major decits in COP sway velocity and COP sway area and eventually, limited motor control
tus in the inner ear (labyrinth) and nerve synapses is highly vascular and the poor supply of oxygen decreases the auto­nomic and somatic reexes.
Eventually, deterioration of one or more of those sensory systems reduces the peripheral information and the ability of the central nervous system to compensate and organize the kinetic strategy of the individual and that affects balance and increases fall risk. Therefore, it is critical to assess not only somatosensory functions related to DPN but also visual and vestibular functions, which can contribute to impaired bal­ance and falls [39].
The effect on postural stability* during stance and gait is very detrimental, with highly negative inuence on mobility and thus, quality of life. The evaluation of the static and dynamic balance is usually based on the interpretation of center-of-pressure (COP) measures using a dynamometric platform (force-plates, pedobarographs etc.) [114] (Figs.13.9 and 13.10).

stable than non-neuropathic diabetic and healthy people and also compare to those individuals affected by neuropathy in the asymptomatic stage, as they show more distant COP sta­bility points (increased sway) and remain on a stable condi­tion for a shorter time [120, 121]. Both static and dynamic balance ability are affected by the DPN and it is important to be assessed in combination with the gait kinematic and kinetic characteristics.

[Postural stability or balance is the ability to maintain or move within a weight-bearing posture without falling. Static balance (steadiness) and dynamic balance refer to the ability to maintain a given posture with minimal sway of Center of Pressure (COP) and to move within a given posture without loss of balance control, respectively] (Figs. 13.10 and 13.11).

Abstract
While stem cells hold great potential to improve existing therapies for diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs), their promise has not been fully exploited. There is a critical need to further develop existing sources of adult stem cells and to test novel sources of induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) to improve impaired wound repair when deliv­ered to DFUs. This chapter summarizes the capacity of multiple adult stem cell sources, including bone marrow­derived mesenchymal stem cells, hematopoietic stem cells, endothelial progenitor cells, bone marrow and peripheral blood mononuclear cells, and adipose stem cells, to improve DFU healing outcomes in pre-clinical animal models and human clinical trials. We also review more recently developed technologies, such as iPSC­derived cell sources, CRISPR gene editing, and 3D human skin equivalent tissue models to generate diverse cell types needed for DFU healing and to streamline their pre­clinical testing. By further understanding how stem cells and related new technologies can best stimulate tissue regeneration, we will be able to overcome existing barri­ers to improve DFU therapies.

Introduction
The cellular complexity of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) pres­ents both opportunities and challenges for the development of new cell therapies designed to stimulate the healing of chronic wounds. Temporally and spatially coordinated inter­actions between multiple cell types and their products, such as extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and soluble cytokines and chemokines, are critical for wound closure [14]. Impaired mechanisms of wound repair in non-healing DFUs are manifested by aberrant neovascularization, alterations in deposition, organization and remodeling of ECM, altered growth factor-mediated cellular crosstalk, and impaired re­epithelialization [513]. Cell therapy for DFUs must over­come these compromised cellular interactions that limit activation of a regenerative connective tissue stroma.
Stem cell therapy is emerging as a promising treatment modality aimed at improving processes underlying the pathophysiology of DFUs. Stem cells have been shown to “home” to wounds where they are mobilized to secrete che­mokines and growth factors that promote angiogenesis and ECM remodeling, thus contributing to a local environment conducive to wound healing [1417]. A key question facing

the success of future cell therapies is whether the delivery of these cells directly to the DFU tissue environment has the potential to activate the repair processes that are decient in these non-healing ulcers. In light of the multiple cellular defects that contribute to DFUs, it is essential to identify and study additional stem cell types that can restore a range of normal cellular functions to the wound microenvironment. It is possible that multiple cell types will need to be delivered in the hope that they will persist and function at the wound site to activate and sustain wound healing in ways that advance the treatment of DFUs.
Stem cells used to promote healing in DFUs can be cate­gorized into allogeneic and autologous cell sources, based on their relation to the donor from whom they are derived. Allogeneic stem cells are dened as cells that are derived from the same species as the recipient but are neither geneti­cally matched nor immunologically compatible with the sub­ject receiving them. Allogeneic cells have been shown to persist for a limited amount of time during which they may recruit other cells that activate biological processes neces-
sary for wound repair [1820]. In contrast, autologous stem cells are cells collected from and then used in the same indi­vidual. Autologous cells have been shown to survive at the site of delivery and to activate wound repair processes. These cell therapies are often evaluated in xenogeneic animal mod­els, in which these human cells are tested for treatment in other species that have relevance to DFU wound repair.
Stem Cells andDFU Therapy
Stem cells that have been tested and implemented as clinical therapies include bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs), hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), endo­thelial progenitor cells (EPCs), bone marrow-derived mono­nuclear cells (BM-MNCs) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), and adipose-derived stem cells (ASCs). This chapter will sum­marize progress in the use of these sources of stem cells to heal and repair DFUs (Fig.14.1). We will review the animal
Fig. 14.1 Potency, source, and functions of stem cells used to treat DFUs. Multipotent and unipotent cells are derived from various tissues and classied based on their capacity to differentiate into functional cell types. Pluripotent stem cells can be differentiated into nearly all cell types and can be modied using CRISPR gene editing. These cell types
can be screened and tested in 3D, in vitro human tissue models and subsequently in animal models before being tested in human clinical trials. This will determine the clinical benet through wound repair pro­cesses such as angiogenesis, extracellular matrix production, growth factor secretion, and re-epithelialization
