Purpose To study changes of cell cycle of vascular endothelial cell in non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Methods Alloxan induced Wistar-rats were employed and immunohistochemistry,Western blotting methods were used. Results The vascular endothelial cells of retinas of 8~20 weeks diabetic rats were observe to be cyclinD1,cyclinD3,cyclinB1,p21 and p27 positive stained with light and electronmicroscopies.CyclinE immuno-stained vascular endothelial cells was observed occasionally.Meanwhile,the evidences of morphologic changes of the vascular en dothelial cells were proved:less plasma,thinner cell,more bubble organelles than those of controls.But,the ultra-structures of pericytes and other type of retinal cells did not change and they also immunostain negative.Komas blue and Western blotting methods also proved that the vascular endothelial cells of retina of 20th week diabetic rats expressed cyclinD1,cyclinB1,p21 and p27 protein. Conclusion Glucose induced retinal vascular endothelial cells of 8~20th weeks diabetic rats enter cell cycle and were arrested at G1/S restriction point.This study also suggested that retinal vascular endothelial cells may possess the ability to resist glucose damage and mechanism of selfstability during very early stage of diabetes.

Objective To introduce the basic research and cl inical appl ication of stem cells transplantation for treating diabetic foot. Methods The recent original articles about the stem cells transplantation for treating diabetic foot were extensively reviewed. Results Transplanted different stem cells in diabetic foot could enhanced ulceration heal ing in certain conditions, increase neovascularization and avoid amputation. Conclusion Stem cells transplantation for treating diabeticfoot may be a future approach.
Objective To observe whether theograde axial flow of retinal ganglion cells (RGC) in diabetic rats at the early stage was damaged. Methods Diabetic model was induced by streptozotocin in 6 adult male Sprague-Dawley (SD)rats. Fluorogold (FG) was injected to the superior colliculi 4 weeks later.Streched preparation of retina was made 12 and 72 hours after the injection, and was stained after photographed by fluorescent microscope. The proportion of RGC with different sizes labeled by FG was calculated. Other 6 normal adult male SD rats were in the control group. Results Twelve hours after injection with FG, there was no difference of the total number of RGC in experimental and control group, but the ratio of small RGC was lower in experimental group than that in the control group; 72 hours after injection with FG, The number of RGC, especially the small RGC, decreased obviously in experimental group compared with the control group. Conclusion The speed of the retrograde axial flow of RGC in diabetic rats at the early stage is affected, and the small RGC are damageable. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2006, 22: 4-6)
To study the expression of CTLA4Ig gene in diabetic rat and the effect of CTLA4Ig on longterm survival of the pancreatic islet. The rat pancreatic islet cell and muscle cell transfected with the cDNA for CTLA4Ig packaged with lipofectin vector. We examined the expression level of CTLA4Ig gene, T lymphocyte reaction and observed the expression of CTLA4Ig cDNA in diabetic rat and the action of CTLA4Ig in longterm survival of pancreatic islet transplanted and the transplanted rats. Results: The T lymphocyte reaction from peripheral intravenous blood at seventh day after surgery, the difference between two group was significant (P<0.05). Only 2 out of 10 recipients of the experiment group (A) at the seventh day after pancreatic islet allograft had any detectable levels of CTLA4Ig, their concentration was 14 ng/ml, and 31 ng/ml. The average time of maintaining blood glycose in normal levels of the group A after pancreatic islets graft, 14.8±12.3 days, was significantly longer than 3.6±5.1 days of the control group (B) (P<0.05). The average survival time of the group A, 24.0±10.8 days (the longest time was 45 days), was significantly longer than 11.8±4.8 days (the longest time was 21 days) of the group B (P<0.01). Conclusions: The muclse cells and pancreatic islets of the recipient rat was transfected with CTLA4IgcDNA packaged with lipofectin, and CTLA4IgcDNA was expressed in recipient tissue, its expressed product CTLA4Ig make pancreatic islets transplanted and recipient rat survive longer significantly.
目的 了解糖尿病患者院外自行注射胰岛素存在的风险。 方法 2010年1月-12月,通过随访调查老年组83例,中青年组69例糖尿病患者院外自行注射胰岛素的实施情况,对存在的问题进行归类、统计。调查的内容主要包括3个方面:胰岛素装置的正确使用、胰岛素的规范注射、血糖监测及低血糖处理。分析两组患者院外注射胰岛素的风险,并对存在的问题进行原因分析、提出解决方法。 结果 发放调查表152份,有效回收131份,其中老年组73份,中青年组58份。在胰岛素装置使用方面,老年组存在问题48项,中青年组27项,两者间差异无统计学意义(χ2=2.432,P>0.05)。在胰岛素的规范注射方面,老年组存在问题176项,中青年组77项,老年组在胰岛素注射方面存在的问题明显高于中青年组(χ2=25.009,P<0.001)。在低血糖的认识及正确处理上,老年组存在问题115项,中青年组33项,两组差异具有统计学意义(χ2=40.383,P<0.001)。 结论 糖尿病患者院外自行注射胰岛素存在诸多风险。老年糖尿病患者院外胰岛素注射需在他人协助、监督下进行。
Objectives To study the relationships between methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase(MTHFR ) gene polymorphism and diabetic retinopathy (DR) in Chinese Han race. Methods With polymerase chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-FLP), MTHFR gene 677 T mutation (cytosine is replaced by thymine in No. 677 site) was detected in 85 health controls, 62 with DR and 117 without DR of type 2 diabetics comfrimed by ophthalmoscope. Results The frequency of MTHFR variant genotypes and alleles of DR in Chinese Han race.patients were signigicantly higher than those without retinopathy and healthy controls (Plt;0.01). Conclusions The results suggested that MTHFRgene C677T mutation was probably one of the genetic risk factors of diabetic retinopathy in Chinese Han rase. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2001,17:198-200
