英文摘要 | Objective Urotensin-Ⅱ is a vasoactive peptide with stronger vasoconstrictive effectiveness. It may be involved in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy. This paper was to assess the effects of Urotensin-Ⅱ antagonist on microvascular pathological changes in diabetic retinopathy (DR). Methods Animal models of DR were induced by injection of streptozocin in rats. Experimental rats were randomly divided into Sham + Veh (normal control, 11 rats), DM + Veh (diabetic model without treatment, 7 rats) and DM + 362 (diabetic model with Urotensin-Ⅱ antagonist treatment, 20 rats) groups. Mean body weight and blood glucose levels of rats were recorded every 2 weeks during the experiment period and rats were scarified at the end of 6 months. Left eye of each rat was processed for elastase digest to determine retinal endothelial/pericyte cell ratios and the right eye were used for transmission electron microscopy examination to detect basement membrane thickness. Results Blood glucose level was significantly higher in the DM + Veh group and DM + 362 group than the Sham + Veh group 2 weeks after diabetes was induced, and that of DM + 362 group was considerably lower in comparison with DM + Veh group after 4 weeks. There was no apparent difference in mean body weight between DM + Veh group and DM + 362 group (P 〉 0.05). Endothelial cell/pericyte ratios and basement membrane thickness were significantly increased in the DM + 362 rats compared with Sham + Veh rats (1.600.01 versus 1.190.01 in E/P ratios, P 〈 0.01 and 106.4018.65 nm versus 83.3614.46 nm in basement membrane thickness, P 〈 0.01) and significantly reduced in comparison with DM + Veh rats (2.100.07 in E/P ratios, P 〈 0.01 and 116.9117.65 nm in basement membrane thickness, P 〈 0.01). Conclusion Urotensin-Ⅱ antagonist may be useful in prevention from the early pathological changes of DR. |
