- 糖尿病学 糖尿病学
- 分子生物学分子生物学
背景情况:
- 糖尿病视网膜病变 (DR) 涉及由血管内皮生长因子 (VEGF) 介导的视网膜新血管化.
- 在患有增殖性糖尿病视网膜病变的患者的眼液中观察到VEGF水平升高.
- VEGF基因多态可能会影响对DR的敏感性.
研究的目的:
- 调查VEGF促进体/5'UTR多态和糖尿病视网膜病变 (DR) 的发展或严重程度之间的关联.
- 确定特定的VEGF遗传变异,使得2型糖尿病患者的DR风险.
主要方法:
- 一个病例控制研究,涉及有或没有DR的2型糖尿病患者和健康对照.
- 使用聚合酶链反应和限制片段长度多态度的VEGF促进子/5'UTR多态度的基因定型.
- 基于有或没有增殖性变化的DR的分类.
主要成果:
- 在糖尿病患者和对照患者之间,以及在DR和非DR糖尿病患者之间,发现了T{-1,498) C,G{-1,190) A和G{-1,154) A多态的基因型分布的显著差异.

Regulation of Angiogenesis and Blood Supply
Rapidly dividing tumors, embryos, and wounded tissues require more oxygen than usual, lowering the oxygen concentration in the blood. At low oxygen or hypoxic conditions, an oxygen-sensitive transcription factor called the hypoxia-inducible factor 1 or HIF1 is activated. HIF1 is a dimeric protein of alpha (ɑ) and beta (β) subunits. Under optimal oxygen conditions, HIF1β is present in the nucleus while HIF1ɑ remains in the cytosol. HIF1ɑ is hydroxylated by prolyl hydroxylase and factor...
Diabetic Retinopathy
DefinitionDiabetic retinopathy is a microvascular complication of diabetes affecting the retinal blood vessels.Risk FactorsDiabetic retinopathy is present in almost all individuals with type 1 diabetes and more than 60% of those with type 2 diabetes after two decades of disease.The risk increases with poor glycemic control, hypertension, dyslipidemia, smoking, pregnancy, and puberty.Although cataracts and glaucoma are also more frequent in people with diabetes, retinopathy remains the leading...
Diabetic Nephropathy
Definition Diabetic nephropathy is a chronic kidney complication that results from prolonged hyperglycemia.Prevalence It is the most common cause of chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD) worldwide, affecting up to half of individuals with diabetes.Pathophysiology • Sustained hyperglycemia triggers multiple hemodynamic and metabolic changes in the kidney. • Early in the disease, increased renal blood flow and glomerular hyperfiltration occur due to afferent arteriolar...
