脂质代谢异常是糖尿病性视网膜病变可能的危险因素。糖尿病性视网膜病变被认为是致盲的主要原因。近年来研究认为总胆固醇、三酰甘油等血脂与糖尿病性视网膜病变及糖尿病黄斑水肿的进展有关,降脂药物的应用能够延缓糖尿病性视网膜病变进展。随着色谱分离和质谱分析等脂质组学分析方法的发展,除了常规的血清脂质标志物以外的各种脂质成分也被发现可能与糖尿病性视网膜病变进展有关。现总结脂质及其衍生物在糖尿病性视网膜病变发病机制中的作用,阐述糖尿病性视网膜病变脂质代谢治疗的潜在靶点和前景。
Abstract Abnormal lipid metabolism is a possible risk factor for diabetic retinopathy. Diabetic retinopathy is considered to be the main cause of blindness. In recent years, studies have shown that serum lipids, such as total cholesterol, triglycerides, are related to the progress of diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema, and lipid-lowering drugs can delay the progress of diabetic retinopathy. With the development of lipidomics analysis methods such as chromatographic separation and mass spectrometry, lipid components other than conventional serum lipid markers have also been found to be related to the progression of diabetic retinopathy. The review summarizes the role of lipids and their derivatives in the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy, and highlights the potential targets and prospects of lipid metabolism treatment for diabetic retinopathy.
晚期糖尿病(diabetes mellitus,DM)患者常出现的糖尿病性视网膜病变能够被发现,而糖尿病性角膜病变(diabetic keratopathy,DK)却时常被人们忽略。近年来的许多研究表明,DK对角膜的结构、代谢、生理功能等多个方面均有重要影响。目前临床上尚无根治DK的有效疗法,现主流疗法多集中于对症治疗以维持光滑湿润的眼表,最大限度地减少视觉损失以及提高舒适度,如局部滴用人工泪液、使用角膜绷带镜及局部使用抗炎药物等,但这些现有的治疗方法对于角膜组织损伤的修复能力有限。近年来出现神经生长因子、胰岛素疗法等新兴的治疗方法,有望未来应用于临床。
The diabetic retinopathy which often occurs in patients with advanced diabetes mellitus (DM) can usually be realized, but diabetic keratopathy (DK) could sometimes be ignored. In recent years, many studies have found out that DK can cause significant abnormal changes in many ways, including structure, metabolism and physiological functions of the cornea. At present, there is no effective therapy to cure DK. The current mainstream therapy mostly focuses on symptomatic treatment to maintain a smooth and moist ocular surface, minimize visual loss and improve comfort, such as local drip of artificial tears, use of corneal bandage lens and local use of anti-inflammatory drugs. However, these existing treatment methods have limited repair ability for corneal tissue damage. In recent years, a number of new treatment methods have emerged, which are expected to be clinically used in the future, such as nerve growth factors and insulin therapy.
糖尿病视网膜病变(diabetic retinopathy,DR)在糖尿病肾病(diabetic nephropathy,DN)人群,特别是终末期糖尿病肾病(end stage diabetic nephropathy,ESRD)患者中的发病率和严重程度明显高于糖尿病人群。其中ESRD的一项重要治疗手段——血液透析(Hemodialysis,HD)可能会增加机体氧化应激反应、出血风险以及视神经的缺血缺氧,加重DR的发生发展;但另一方面也可通过清除尿毒症毒素、控制血压以及清除多余体液等途径改善糖尿病和DN对眼部的损伤。
The incidence and severity of diabetic retinopathy (DR) in patients with diabetic nephropathy (DN), especially those with end-stage renal disease (ESRD), were higher than those with diabetes. Hemodialysis (HD), an important treatment of ESRD, may aggravate DR by increasing the oxidative stress, fundus hemorrhage and hypoxia of the optic nerve. On the other hand, HD can improve the ocular damage caused by diabetes mellitus and DN by removing uremia toxin, controlling blood pressure and removing excess body fluid.
