Abstract:
BackgroundDiabetic retinopathy (DR) associated with this disease closely approximates the oxidative damage inflicted on retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells by high glucose,in recent years,people devote themselves to the protection of RPE cells extensively.ObjectiveTo investigate the protective effect of pancreatic β MIN-6 cells on retinal pigment epithelial(RPE) cells from high glucose-induced damage.MethodsRPE cells were incubated with normal medium for 4 d and divided into 3 groups:normal glucose group,high glucose group and MIN-6 cells group.RPE cell were exposed with 5 mmol/L normal glucose in normal glucose group,exposed with 30 mmol/L high glucose in high glucose group,and exposed with 5 × 104 MIN-6 cells and 30 mmol/L high glucose in MIN-6 cells group.After 24 h,cell viability of RPE cells was determined by MTT cell viability assay.Results More than 95％ cells showed the brown staining by ABC method.After incubation for another 24 hours,the A550 value was 0.44±0.02,0.30±0.01 and 0.41±0.01 in the normal glucose group,high glucose group and MIN-6 cells group respectively with a significant difference among these three groups (F =19.94,P＜ 0.01 ).The A55o value was significantly higher in the normal glucose group and the MIN-6 cells group compared with the high glaucose group (t =6.85,5.62,P＜0.01 ).The survival rate of RPE cells in the normal glucose group was(97.5±3.3 )％,and that in the high glucose group was ( 68.2 ± 4.5 ) ％,showing significant difference between them ( t =11.30,P＜0.01 ).ConclusionsHigh glucose-induced damage of RPE cells is abrogated,and MIN-6 cells can protect RPE cells from high glucose-induced damage.
