Chinese Journal of Experimental Ophthalmology 2012;30(2):101-105
BackgroundWith the number of diabetics increases,people pay more attention to the diabetic keratopathy.The major mechanism leading to diabetic keratopathy is diabetic corneal neuropathy.So it is significant to observe pathologic mechanism of diabetic corneal neuropathy. Objective To investigate the protective effects of edaravone( a free radical scavenger) on corneal nerve of rats with experimental diabetic corneal neuropathy,then explain the effects of oxidative stress in the pathologic mechanism of diabetic corneal neuropathy. Methods Seventy Sprague-Daxley male rats were taken as experimental subjects and 20 of them were used as normal control group.The remaining 50 were induced to be diabetic mellitus by a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin and divided into 2 groups randomly:edaravone treated group and diabetic control group.In the edaravone treated group,edaravone(0.2 g/L) eye drops were used 3 times a day until the animal was killed.Five rats in each group were sacrificed at 6,8,10 and 12 weeks respectively.Then the corneal sensation,number of corneal nerve fibers,morphology,content of malondialdehyde(MDA) and activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD) in the corneal tissue were detected.ResultsIn the diabetic control group,the corneal sensation and the number of corneal nerve fibers were decreased,the density of neural network for cluster was sparse,the nerve activity was decreased,the content of MDA in the corneal tissue was significantly increased,the activity of SOD in the corneal tissue was significantly decreased (P<0.01 ).Accompany with the course of disease,the above change was obvious day after day.Compared with the diabetic control group,the corneal sensation and the morphological abnormalities in corneal nerve of edaravone group were improved significantly which had the partial branches to the 12th week,the content of MDA in the corneal tissue was significantly decreased,the activity of SOD in the corneal tissue was significantly increased (P<0.01).Conclusions Edaravone can lower diabetic corneal nerve of rats with experimental diabetic corneal neuropathyinjury,Oxidative stress may be a critical pathologic mechanism of diabetic corneal neuropathy.

Objective To investigate the effect of valsartan,an angiotensinⅡtype 1 receptor (AT1 R)blocker,on radiosensitivity,invasive potential and proliferation activity of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells(CNE-2)in vitro. Methods Radiosensitization of valsartan on CNE-2 cells in vitro was investigated by colony forming assay.Effect of ATl R blocker combined with radiation on invasive potential of CNE-2 cells was evaluated using 24-well Matrigel invasion chambers(Transwell).Apoptosis-inducing effect of valsartan combined with radiation on apoptosis of CNE-2 was identified by flowcytometry(FCM). Resuits When valsartan was given at 10-9.10-8 and 10-7 mol/L combined with radiation,sensitivity enhancement ratios (SER)were 1.10,1.20 and 1.36.and the invasive inhibition rates were 8.11%,16.49%and 16.77%,respectively.The SER of valsartan on CNE-2 distinctly increased when the exposure time was increased.After 24 h exposure to 10-8 mol/L valsartan combined witIl radiation.the apoptosis rate was 1.89%±0.09%,which was higher than 1.62%±0.06%in radiation alone group(t=4.79.P<0.05). Conclusions AT1 R blocker valsartan combined with radiation can significantly inhibit the proliferation activity of nasophar,cngeal carcinoma cells in vitro in a dose- and time-dependent manner.Valsartan combined with radiation can potently inhibit the invasive potential of CNE-2.which may be involved in the mechanism of valsartan treatment in vivo.

[Objective] To investigate the effects of mitochondrial unfolded-protein response (UPRmt) on the aggregation toxicity of Aβ protein in Alzheimer's disease (AD).[Methods] By cloning the mitochondrial outer membrane tomm-22,inner membrane E04A4.5 and atfs-1 genes of Caenorhabditis elegans (C.elegans) and constructing the L4440 interference vectors,HT115 competent cells were transformed to prepare tomm-22,E04A4.5 and atfs-1 RNAi bacteria.The effects of tomm-22 and E04A4.5 RNAi on the process of paralysis were investigated through transgenic AD disease models CL4176 and CL2006.The life span of wild type N2 C.elegans was observed after RNAi of tomm-22 and E04A4.5.The regulatory role of ATFS-1 signaling by atfs-1 RNAi in inhibition of Aβ protein aggregation was detected.The dynamic changes of UPRmt in transgenic SJ4100 nematode and the autophagy level in transgenic DA2123 nematodes were analyzed by tomm-22 and E04A4.5 RNAi.[Results] We successfully established the UPRmt model by cloning mitochondrial tomm-22 and E04A4.5 of C.elegans and further constructing RNAi bacteria,and showed that they can suppress aggregation toxicity of Amyloid-β (Aβ) protein in AD model CL4176,and slow down paralysis process.The life span of wild type N2 was significantly shortened after feeding with the tomm-22 and E04A4.5 RNAi bacteria.At the same time,the progressive paralysis AD model CL2006 shows a delayed paralysis in the early stage of life cycle but get acceleration in the late.These results illustrate that the UPRmt can alleviate the mitochondrial stress and improve the function of mitochondria at least in the short term.The atfs-1 RNAi confirmed that delayed paralysis process of AD model CL4176 is not directly related to the ATFS-1 signal.However,tomm-22 and E04A4.5 RNAi can gradually increase the UPRmt response and induce the expression level of autophagy-related molecules LGG-1,suggesting that tomm-22 and E04A4.5 RNAi may play a role in delaying the AD disease process by enhancing the activity of autophagy in C.elegans.[Conclusions] The study found that the UPRmt can inhibit the accumulation of A β protein by coordinating the signal transduction between mitochondria and nucleus,and can help to restore mitochondria and even intracellular protein homeostasis for protecting the normal physiological function of cells,and also provides new targets for prevention and treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as AD.
