To explore the role of vascular endothelial growth factor and interleukin-6 in the aqueous humor in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy(DR).
Aqueous humor samples were collected in type 2 diabetic patients during cataract surgery. The classification of DR was assigned based on the fundus examination and fluorescein angiography after cataract surgery. The experiment group included non-diabetic retinopathy (NDR,21 cases),background diabetic retinopathy (BDR,26 cases) and Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR,19 cases). The control group was the healthy cataract patients (20 cases). The levels of VEGF and IL-6 in the aqueous humor was assessed using the ELISA technique.
The level of VEGF in NDR,BDR and PDR cases were(240.30+/-26.15)pg/ml, (292.27+/-58.91)pg/ml and (477.41+/-91.01)pg/m1, respectively. The level of IL-6 in NDR, BDR and PDR cases were (160.83+/-33.41)pg/ml, (238.60+/-62.23)pg/ml and (389.13+/-90.35)pg/ml,respectively. The levels of VEGF and IL-6 in the aqueous humour from the control group were (140.58+/-26.27) pg/ml,(82.72+/-21.53)pg/ml.The level of VEGF and IL-6 were significantly different in experiment and control groups(F=113.67,p<0.01; F=106.53, p<0.01). In the aqueous humor of diabetic patients increased significantly(p<0.O1). The level of VEGF and IL-6 was significantly correlated with each other in experiment group (r=0.995,p<0.O1). The levels of VEGF(r=0.792,0.826,0.841,p<0.01)and IL-6(r=0.829, 0.817.0.896,p<0.01)were also significantly correlated with the duration of DR.
VEGF and IL-6 play important roles in the development of DR. The levels of these two factors are correlated with each other in DR patients.
探讨房水中血管内皮生长因子和白细胞介素-6在糖尿病视网膜病变(DR)发病机制中的作用。
收集2型糖尿病患者白内障手术期间的房水样本。根据白内障手术后的眼底检查和荧光素血管造影对DR进行分类。实验组包括非糖尿病性视网膜病变(NDR,21例)、背景性糖尿病视网膜病变(BDR,26例)和增殖性糖尿病视网膜病变(PDR,19例)。对照组为健康白内障患者(20例)。采用酶联免疫吸附测定(ELISA)技术评估房水中VEGF和IL-6的水平。
NDR、BDR和PDR病例中VEGF水平分别为(240.30±26.15)pg/ml、(292.27±58.91)pg/ml和(477.41±91.01)pg/ml。NDR、BDR和PDR病例中IL-6水平分别为(160.83±33.41)pg/ml、(238.60±62.23)pg/ml和(389.13±90.35)pg/ml。对照组房水中VEGF和IL-6水平分别为(140.58±26.27)pg/ml、(82.72±21.53)pg/ml。实验组和对照组中VEGF和IL-6水平差异有统计学意义(F=113.67,p<0.01;F=106.53,p<0.01)。糖尿病患者房水中VEGF和IL-6水平显著升高(p<0.01)。实验组中VEGF和IL-6水平显著相关(r=0.995,p<0.01)。VEGF(r=0.792、0.826、0.841,p<0.01)和IL-6(r=0.829、0.817、0.896,p<0.01)水平也与DR病程显著相关。
VEGF和IL-6在DR发展中起重要作用。这两种因子水平在DR患者中相互关联。
