Objective: To identify neurofibromatosis in retinopathy through high-throughput sequencing analysis and provide important indicators for early diagnosis and treatment. Methods: Variants in NF1 and NF2 were selected from in-house high-throughput sequencing, including targeted exome sequencing, exome sequencing and whole genome sequencing, of individuals with different eye conditions. Pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants were assessed according to ACMG/AMP criteria. All the available clinical data, including clinical manifestation, family history and other examination results, were summarized and further analyzed to determine whether neurofibromatosis. Results: Based on the results of in-house high-throughput sequencing, a total of ten pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in NF1 and NF2 were identified in 11 unrelated cases with various eye conditions, including three NF2 variants in four cases and seven NF1 variants in seven cases. The unrelated cases with NF1 and NF2 variants had initial clinical manifestation similar to familial exudative vitreoretinopathy (FEVR), macular or retinal dystrophy, strabismus, retinitis pigmentosa, Coats disease, or morning glory syndrome. In one of these cases, who was diagnosed as FEVR at the initial visit, three pathogenic variants of three different genes were identified, namely NF2: c.122G>A/p.(W41*), RS1: c.520C>T/p.(R174W) and NYX: c.1027C>T/p.(R343C). Follow-up examination on this case revealed a complex retinopathy, which were consistent with clinical presentations due to pathogenic variants in NF2, RS1, and NYX, as well as bilateral vestibular schwannomas, spinal ependymoma and multiple schwannomas by MRI. In addition to this patient, a follow-up examination on four of the seven cases present Café-au-lait macules or freckling, which could be easily neglected if neurofibromatosis is not realized on the initial visit, while one had neurofibromatosis in cerebellum. Conclusions: Complex retinopathy may present as the initial sign of neurofibromatosis, and high-throughput sequencing analysis for neurofibromatosis related genes contribute to early diagnosis of neurofibromatosis and facilitating early identification of vital systemic complication.
糖尿病视网膜病变(diabetic retinopathy,DR)是世界范围内劳动年龄人口视力损伤的主要原因。糖尿病前期和DR临床前期患者作为罹患DR的高危人群,在该阶段可发现视网膜神经元形态功能及视网膜微小血管的改变。视网膜及神经纤维层厚度的变化可部分反映视网膜神经元结构改变;色觉、对比敏感度、视野及视觉电生理等变化可反映视网膜神经元功能改变。随着光学相关断层扫描血管成像技术的发展,临床可以检测出DR之前视网膜微血管的改变。此外,许多生物标志物也可以预测和评估DR。由于目前还没有方法可以阻止DR的发生与进展,临床可以通过观察以上视网膜的改变更为及时地发现DR,以降低其患病率,最大限度地减少DR带来的视力损伤。
Diabetes retinopathy (DR) is the main cause of visual impairment in the working population worldwide. Patients with pre-diabetes and pre-clinic diabetic retinopathy are regarded as in high risk group of DR. The changes in morphology and function of renal neurons and retinal micro-vessels can be found in these patients at this stage. The changes of retinal nerve structure can be partly reflected by changes in the thickness of retina and nerve fiber layer. The changes in function of retinal neurons can be reflected by changes in color vision, contrast sensitivity, visual field and visual electrophysiology.With the development of optical coherence tomography angiography, changes in retinal micro-vessels can be observed prior to clinical detection of DR. In addition, many biomarker can also predict and evaluate DR. Since there is no way to prevent the occurrence and progress of DR at present, more attention should be paid in DR by observing the changes inthe retina mentioned above timely, to reduce its incidence and minimize the visual damage caused by DR.
糖尿病视网膜病变(diabetes retinopathy, DR)是糖尿病常见的眼部并发症,其病理过程复杂,涉及多种细胞及炎症因子。Müller细胞作为视网膜主要支持细胞,在DR中不仅产生白介素-17(interleukin-17, IL-17),还作为其主要靶点发挥作用,通过谷氨酸代谢异常、血管内皮生长因子(vascular endothelial growth factor, VEGF)分泌增加及调控参与DR的病理过程,加重炎症反应。IL-17主要由辅助性T细胞17(T helper cell 17, Th17)分泌,通过促进多种炎症介质(如细胞因子、趋化因子和金属蛋白酶)的分泌,增强炎症反应,导致视网膜微血管损害和神经元凋亡,促进DR的发展。高糖环境下,Müller细胞功能受损,IL-17进一步加剧其功能障碍形成恶性循环。研究表明,阻断IL-17及核因子-κB激活剂1(Nuclear factor-kappa B activator 1, Act1)/肿瘤坏死因子受体关联因子6(tumor necrosis factor receptor associated factor 6, TRAF6)/核因子-κB(Nuclear factor-kappa B, NF-κB)信号通路可减轻DR的病理改变,为DR的治疗提供了新的思路。因此,深入研究IL-17与Müller细胞在DR中的相互作用机制,对于研究该疾病的发病机制及开发精准有效的治疗策略具有重要意义。
Diabetes retinopathy (DR) is a common ocular complication of diabetes, characterized by a complex pathological process involving multiple cells and inflammatory factors. Müller cells, as the primary supporting cells of the retina, not only produce interleukin-17 (IL-17) but also serve as a primary target in DR. They participate in the pathological process of DR by contributing to abnormal glutamate metabolism, increased secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), and regulatory functions, thereby exacerbating the inflammatory response. IL-17 is primarily secreted by T helper cell 17 (Th17) cells and enhances the inflammatory response by promoting the secretion of various inflammatory mediators (such as cytokines, chemokines, and metalloproteinases), leading to retinal microvascular damage and neuronal apoptosis, which accelerates the progression of DR. In a high-glucose environment, Müller cell function is impaired, and IL-17 further exacerbates this dysfunction, creating a vicious cycle. Studies have shown that blocking the IL-17 and Act1/TRAF6/NF-κB signaling pathways can mitigate the pathological changes associated with DR, providing new insights for the treatment of this disease. Therefore, conducting in-depth research on the interaction mechanism between IL-17 and Müller cells in DR is of great significance for exploring the pathogenesis of this disease and developing precise and effective treatment strategies.
糖尿病视网膜病变是最为常见的糖尿病微血管并发症,主要由糖尿病引起的机体代谢紊乱导致。而然在临床工作中发现,部分患者通过单纯控制血糖以延缓糖尿病视网膜病变进展,所取得效果不甚理想,一些其他因素对于糖尿病视网膜病变的发生、发展,也起到不可忽视的作用。研究表明,在并发高脂血症的糖尿病视网膜病变患者中,胆固醇代谢异常是诱发视网膜病变的主要原因之一。胆固醇代谢异常通过减弱肝脏X受体,导致胆固醇在视网膜上不断积累,降低视网膜血管内皮功能,从而造成视网膜缺血、缺氧环境的形成,又可通过增加炎症因子和细胞黏附分子-1的表达,使原本病态的糖尿病视网膜血管变得更加脆弱,该文总结了糖尿病视网膜病变的病理因素,对比分析当前糖尿病视网膜病变的主要治疗手段,通过分析胆固醇逆向转运(cholesterol reverse transport,RCT)途径转运对糖尿病视网膜病变发生、发展的影响,发现降低高血脂可提高糖尿病视网膜病变的治愈率,这将为糖尿病视网膜病变的临床防治工作提供新思路。
Diabetic retinopathy is the most common diabetic microvascular complication, which is mainly caused by metabolic disorders caused by diabetes. However, in clinical work, it is found that some patients do not achieve satisfactory results in delaying the progress of diabetic retinopathy by simply controlling blood sugar, and some other factors contribute to the occurrence and development of diabetic retinopathy. Also played a role that can not be ignored. Studies have shown that abnormal cholesterol metabolism is one of the main causes of retinopathy in diabetic retinopathy patients with hyperlipidemia. Abnormal cholesterol metabolism leads to the accumulation of cholesterol in the retina and the decrease of retinal vascular endothelial function by weakening the X receptor in the liver, resulting in the formation of retinal ischemia and hypoxia environment. it can also increase the expression of inflammatory cytokines and cell adhesion molecule-1 to make the originally morbid retinal vessels more fragile. This paper summarizes the pathological factors of diabetic retinopathy. By comparing and analyzing the main treatment methods of diabetic retinopathy at present, and by analyzing the influence of cholesterol reverse transport (cholesterolreversetransport,RCT) pathway on the occurrence and development of diabetic retinopathy, it is found that reducing hyperlipidemia can improve the cure rate of diabetic retinopathy, which will provide new ideas for the clinical prevention and treatment of diabetic retinopathy.
糖尿病视网膜病变是糖尿病引起的微血管病变之一,是不可逆性致盲的眼病。根据其病程可分为根据其病程可分为非增殖期和增殖期,其中还包括糖尿病性黄斑水肿。全科医师需要检测量裸眼视力、矫正视力和眼压,通过裂隙灯显微镜评估眼前节以及眼底检查来评估眼部整体情况。控制血糖、血压、血脂对改善预后很重要。需要重视餐前、餐后血糖,糖化血红蛋白和代谢记忆,一线降血压药物包括血管紧张素转化酶抑制剂和血管紧张素Ⅱ受体阻断剂,调脂药物首选他汀类,而非诺贝特有额外的视网膜保护作用。干预生活方式,宣教,早期发现也同样重要。全科医师需要进行眼底筛查和评分,及时转诊至眼科治疗。眼科治疗包括全视网膜激光光凝术、经平坦部玻璃体切除术、玻璃体抗血管内皮生长因子药物注射术。

Objective: To observe the efficacy of laser photocoagulation (LP) and intravitreal ranibizumab (IVR) injection in the treatment of type 1 prethreshold retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) with lesions located in zone II. Methods:Forty-four patients (81 eyes) with type 1 prethreshold retinopathy of prematurity with lesions located in zone II staying in our hospital from October 2015 to December 2019 were collected and divided into LP group and IVR group according to the operation method. Through observation of the postoperative disease involution, retinal vascularization, systemic and ocular complications in each group, the effects of different surgical methods were analyzed. Results: In LP group, 20 patients (37 eyes) underwent retinal laser photocoagulation treatment, with no recurrence occurred after the operation; the cure rate after the first operation was 100%; the disease was controlled at (3.42±1.57) weeks after the operation; and peripheral retinal vascularization was observed at (9.84±4.75) weeks after the operation. In IVR group, 24 patients (44 eyes) were injected with ranibizumab; 39 eyes were under control after a single operation; the cure rate after the first operation was 88.6%; and 5 eyes were not under control after surgery. The disease was controlled for an average of (2.95±2.58) weeks after operation; peripheral retinal vascularization was observed at (14.19±4.95) weeks after operation; there were statistically significant differences in the cure rate after the first operation and retinal vascularization time between the two groups. Conclusion:Retinal laser photocoagulation and IVR have good effects in the treatment of type 1 prethreshold retinopathy of prematurity with lesions located in zone II. However, the recurrence rate using IVR is relatively high. Therefore,the surgical method needs to be cautious and still requires clinical observation.
