简介:目的观察1,25(OH)2D3对高糖诱导牛视网膜血管内皮细胞(BRECs)中血管内皮生长因子(VEGF)的表达水平变化及对细胞凋亡水平的影响。方法将分离培养的BRECs分为三组,分别为正常糖组、高糖组和高糖处理组。正常对照组细胞培养液含5mmol/L葡萄糖,高糖组细胞培养液含30mmol/L葡萄糖,高糖处理组细胞培养液含30mmol/L葡萄糖和50nM,1,25(OH)2D3。培养48h后收集细胞蛋白。蛋白免疫印迹法检测细胞VEGF及细胞凋亡相关蛋白Bax和Bcl-2表达水平;PI/Hoechst双染色法检测细胞凋亡。结果相比于正常糖组,高糖组中VEFG水平和Bax/Bcl-2比值显著增加;而在高糖处理组中表达水平远远低于高糖组,差异均有统计学意义(P〈0.05)。高糖的细胞凋亡水平高于正常糖组,而经过1,25(OH)2D3处理后,其细胞凋亡水平则有所下降,差异均有统计学意义(P〈0.05)。结论1,25(OH)2D3可以抑制高糖诱导BRECs中VEGF表达增加及细胞凋亡。

简介:患者,男,51岁,2004年8月因“左眼颈椎手术后视物不见2个月”至本院就诊。左眼:视力无光感,眼球各方向运动中度受限,屈光介质透明,瞳孔散大,直接对光(-),间接对光反应迟钝,视网膜灰黄色,血管变细,视乳头苍白,脉络膜背景污秽色,眼底无出血渗出。右眼:无阳性体征。现病史:患者2004年6月因“无骨折脱位性颈脊髓损伤并不全瘫”在当地医院行颈椎手术。麻醉方式:静脉复合麻醉,俯卧,颈部过伸位。手术持续时间:4小时40分。术前患者双眼视力均正常,苏醒后即左眼视物完全不见,右眼正常,当地医院眼科检查治疗情况不详。我院诊断:左眼部缺血综合征。
