Abstract:
Objective To detect the expression levels of adipose-specific phospholipase A2 (AdPLA) mRNA in orbital adipose tissue of thepatients with thyroid associated ophthalmopathy and the normals.Methods Sixteen patients with TAO of m level and stationary phase underwent orbital decompression,and 29 normals underwent ocular plastic surgery in Shenzhen Eye Hospital between August,2015 and October,2016.Orbital fat samples were collected from one eyes of these patients during surgery.The age,gender,height,weight,body mass index (BMI),exophthalmos degree,orbital fat of the patients with TAO and the normals were recorded and calculated.Using real time PCR,the AdPLA mRNA were detected from these orbital fat samples.Results There was no significant difference between the patients with TAO and the normals in age,gender,and BMI (all P ＞ 0.05).TAO group had more exophthalmos degree (20.406 ± 1.369)mm than the normals (14.207 ± 1.146) mm.TAO group had more orbital fat (32.162 ± 1.923) mL than the normals (24.279 ± 1.070) mL.The average expression level of AdPLA in patients with TAO was 0.039 42 ± 0.009 85,and 0.004 42 ± 0.001 36 in the normal.There was significant difference between two groups (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The patients with TAO of Ⅲ level and stationary phase have more exophthalmos degree and orbital fat than the normals.AdPLA mRNA is higher expressed in orbital adipose tissue of the patients with TAO of Ⅲ level and stationary phase than the normals.The high expression of AdPLA may reduce lipolysis in the orbital adipose tissue,lead to fat accumulation in orbits,and aggravate exophthalmos of patients with TAO.
