1.The status, problem and progress of diabetic retinopathy treatment
Chinese Journal of Ocular Fundus Diseases 2016;32(2):206-210
Laser photocoagulation,intravitreal injection of antibody against vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or corticosteroids and pars plana vitrectomy are current popular therapeutic approaches for diabetic retinopathy (DR).However,some DR patients still progress to irreversible blindness even after the above treatments which do not aim at the pathological mechanisms and influence factors for DR.Thus,with the further elucidation on the molecular pathological mechanisms and overall understanding of the factors affecting DR development,more and more potential therapeutic interventions such as neuron protection,vascular reconstruction and protection,gene therapy,non-VEGF dependent antineovascularization agents have been explored.Individual precise therapy based on the potential therapeutic targets would provide the promising future for DR patients.

Objective To investigate the effects of propofol on P2X7 receptor activition and IL-1β production induced by endotoxin in murine RAW264.7 macrophages. Methods RAW264.7 macruphages were treated with LPS (1 μg/ml) for 4 h to induce the production and release of IL-1β, and pretreated with BBG (specific P2X7 receptor antagonist) 1 μmol/L or propofol 1-100 μmol/L for 20 min before LPS stimulation, and IL-1β release was measured using ELISA kit. Whole-cell patch clamp technique was used to record the P2X7-gated currents induced by 1 mmol/L ATP, the cells were exposed to propofol with 1-1 000 -μmol/L for 4 min, and the IC_(50) level of propofol was achieved. Western blot technique was used to measure the production of pro-lL-1β protein and IL-1β protein intracellularly after LPS treatment for 4 h under different concentrations of propofol. Results IL-1β was released from RAW264.7 macrophages after LPS stimulation, which was decreased by propofol, and the IC_(50) level of propefol was (24±3) μmol/L. P2XT-gated currents were inhibited by propofol, and the IC_(50) level was (33±5) μmol/L. Pro-IL-1β protein intracellularly was up-regulated after LPS stimulation, and propofol with 3-100 μmol/L decreased the up-regulation of pro-IL-1β intracellularly induced by LPS. Conclusion Propefol could inhibit IL-1β release from RAW264.7 macrophages treated by LPS, which is mediated by inhibiting P2X7 receptor activition and decreasing the production of pro-IL-1β intracellularly.
