Key Words	Diabetic foot ulcer; N7-methylguanosine modification; Decapping scavenger enzyme; Keratinocyte; RNA metabolism; Wound healing
Core Tip	Reduced expression of the N7-methylguanosine decapping scavenger enzyme (DCPS) has been observed in diabetes and associated with impaired keratinocyte regeneration. DCPS may work as a useful biomarker and therapeutic target for improving wound healing in diabetes.
