简介：目的：研究在高糖诱导人晶状体上皮细胞向间充质转化的过程中JAK-STAT通路的作用及AG490对此过程的影响。方法：低糖（5.5mmol/L）DMEM培养液体外培养人晶状体上皮细胞系SRA01/04。高糖（30.5mmol/L）处理细胞,按照是否加入AG490及其浓度的不同分为实验组和对照组。CCK-8试剂盒检测晶状体上皮细胞的活性,选择实验组AG490浓度为10μmol/L和50μmol/L,处理时间分别为6,12,24和48h；细胞划痕实验检测细胞迁移能力的变化；RT-PCR方法半定量检测TGF-β1,FN和α-SMA的mRNA表达量变化。结果：在不同的处理时间（6,12,24,48h）,高糖组（HG组）与低糖组相比,细胞的迁移能力增加（P〈0.05）,TGF-β1,FN和α-SMA表达量增高（P〈0.05）；AG490组与HG组相比,细胞的迁移能力降低（P〈0.05）,TGF-β1,FN和α-SMA的mRNA表达量下降。结论：JAK-STAT通路通过影响TGF-β1和细胞外基质转录表达参与了高糖诱导的人晶状体上皮细胞向间充质转化的过程。JAK抑制剂AG490对此过程有抑制作用,且随着AG490浓度的增加其抑制作用增强。

简介：目的研究视网膜色素上皮(retinalpigmentepithelium,RPE)细胞中端粒酶逆转录酶(telomerasereversetranscriptase,TERT)表达及其反义寡核苷酸(antisenseolgonucleotides,ASODN)对其表达和细胞增生的抑制作用,为增生性玻璃体视网膜病变(prliferativevitreoretinopathy,PVR)治疗探索基因治疗新途径.方法体外培养兔眼RPE细胞,在不同时间采用链霉亲合素-生物素化过氧化物酶复合物(strepoavidin-biotin-enzymecomplex,SABC)免疫组织化学法检测TERT的表达;不同浓度的TERTASODN和正义寡核苷酸(senseoligodeoxynucleotides,SODN)分别作用于体外培养的RPE细胞,采用免疫组织化学方法检测TERT的表达;四唑盐比色法(MTT)检测在不同浓度的TERTASODN和SODN作用下RPE细胞生长活性及其生长抑制率.结果体外培养兔眼RPE细胞可表达TERT,在5,10μmo/LASODN作用下,TERT的表达明显受抑制;TERTASODN能明显抑制RPE细胞增生活性,并呈剂量依赖性.结论TERTASODN能序列特异性地抑制RPE细胞TERT表达和增生活性.

简介：目的:通过测定糖尿病性白内障患者血清中糖代谢指标、胰岛素抵抗与房水和血清中炎症因子的水平,探讨其相关性。方法:随机选取我院2017-02/2018-01糖尿病性白内障患者69例(观察组)和白内障患者65例(对照组),检测两组患者血清中糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)、空腹血糖(FPG)、空腹胰岛素(FINS)的水平,计算胰岛素抵抗指数(HOMA-IR);同时检测房水和血清中的胰岛素样生长因子-1(IGF-1)、白细胞介素-6(IL-6)含量,对HbA1c、HOMA-IR与房水和血清中IGF-1、IL-6含量进行相关性分析。结果:对照组血清中的FPG、HbA1c、HOMA-IR,以及房水和血清中IGF-1、IL-6含量显著低于观察组,差异有统计学意义(均P<0.05)。HbA1c与房水及血清中的IGF-1和IL-6均呈正相关(P<0.05)。HOMA-IR与房水及血清中的IGF-1和IL-6均呈正相关(P<0.05)。结论:糖尿病性白内障患者HbA1c、HOMA-IR与房水及血清中的IGF-1、IL-6含量具有相关性,通过对上述指标的测定可以辅助判断病情。
