Dynamic expression of P58 IPK in retina of diabetic rats / 中华实验眼科杂志

ABSTRACT

Background The molecular biological mechanisms of diabetic retinopathy(DR)is unclear up to now.Researches have proved that endoplasmic reticulum stress(ER Stress)-associated factors are elevated in peripheral blood in patients with diabetic retinopathy.and P58 IPK can inhibit those factors.So the relationship between P58 IPK and DR is worth to investigate. Objective The aim of this study was to detect the dynamic expression of P58 IPK in the retina of diabetic rats. Methods The diabetic animal models were established in 18 clean male SD rats by intraperitoneal injection of stilptozotiein(STZ)at a dose of 60 mg/kg.The rats were sacrificed in 1,3,6 months after injection.The expression change of P58 IPK mRNA in the rats retina was detected by quantitative real-time RT-PCR.Other 6 matched normal rats were used as control groups.This experiment followed the Regulations for the Administration of Affair Concerning experimental Animals by State Science and Technology Commission. Results The rats showed more drinking,more food and more urine after STZ injection with the blood glucose level≥ 16.5 mmol/L.The success rate of diabetic models was 100%.The A value of P58 IPK mRNA/β-actin in rat retina was 0.800±0.005 and 0.975±0.008 after injection of STZ.and that of control rats was 0.725±0.006,showing statistically significant difference between them(t=22.589,t=62.784,P＜0.05).In 6 months after injection of STZ,the expression of P58 IPK mRNA in experimental diabetic rat retina was evidently lower than the eontrol rats(0.671±0.004 versus 0.725±0.006,t=-17.984,P＜0.05).Conclusion P58 IPK has a close relation to the pathogenesis of DR,and it plays a retarding role for DR.
