Abstract:
AIM: To investigate the correlation of serum Silent mating-type information regulation 2 homolog 1(SIRT1)and Vasostatin-2 content with pathological changes in diabetic retinopathy(DR)patients.METHODS: A total of 104 DR patients(104 eyes)admitted to our hospital from April 2021 to April 2024 were included as the DR group. According to different disease stages, they were assigned into a non-proliferative DR(NPDR)group of 44 cases(44 eyes)and a proliferative DR(PDR)group of 60 cases(60 eyes). Meantime, 104 patients(104 eyes)with simple diabetes were treated as non-DR group. ELISA was applied to detect the levels of SIRT1 and Vasostatin-2 in serum. The diagnostic value of serum SIRT1 and Vasostatin 2 in DR was analyzed by ROC curve. Multivariate Logistic regression was applied to analyze the factors that affected the occurrence of DR. Pearson correlation was applied to analyze the relationship between the levels of SIRT1 and Vasostatin-2 in the serum of DR patients and angiogenesis indicators(VEGF, Ang-2).RESULTS: Compared with the non-DR group, the levels of SIRT1 and Vasostatin-2 in the serum of the DR group were significantly decreased(P<0.05). Compared with the NPDR group, the levels of SIRT1 and Vasostatin-2 in the serum of the PDR group were significantly decreased(P<0.05). Compared with the non-DR group, the levels of VEGF and Ang-2 in the serum of the DR group were obviously higher(P<0.05). Compared with the single detection of serum SIRT1 and Vasostatin-2 levels, combined detection significantly increased the AUC in the diagnosis of DR(Z=4.180, 5.128, all P<0.05). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that HOMA-IR(OR=3.455), fasting blood glucose(OR=1.467), SIRT1(OR=0.836), Vasostatin-2(OR=0.767), VEGF(OR=2.564), and Ang-2(OR=1.834)levels were the influencing factors on the occurrence of DR(all P<0.05). Pearson correlation analysis showed that the levels of SIRT1 and Vasostatin-2 in the serum of DR patients were negatively correlated with VEGF and Ang-2(rSIRT1 vs VEGF=-0.395, rSIRT1 vs Ang-2=-0.474, rVasostatin-2 vs VEGF=-0.323, rVasostatin-2 vs Ang-2=-0.583, all P<0.001).CONCLUSION: The abnormal decrease of serum SIRT1 and Vasostatin 2 levels in DR patients is closely related to the stage of DR lesions and angiogenesis.
