Purpose To study changes of cell cycle of vascular endothelial cell in non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Methods Alloxan induced Wistar-rats were employed and immunohistochemistry,Western blotting methods were used. Results The vascular endothelial cells of retinas of 8～20 weeks diabetic rats were observe to be cyclinD1,cyclinD3,cyclinB1,p21 and p27 positive stained with light and electronmicroscopies.CyclinE immuno-stained vascular endothelial cells was observed occasionally.Meanwhile,the evidences of morphologic changes of the vascular en dothelial cells were proved:less plasma,thinner cell,more bubble organelles than those of controls.But,the ultra-structures of pericytes and other type of retinal cells did not change and they also immunostain negative.Komas blue and Western blotting methods also proved that the vascular endothelial cells of retina of 20th week diabetic rats expressed cyclinD1,cyclinB1,p21 and p27 protein. Conclusion Glucose induced retinal vascular endothelial cells of 8～20th weeks diabetic rats enter cell cycle and were arrested at G1/S restriction point.This study also suggested that retinal vascular endothelial cells may possess the ability to resist glucose damage and mechanism of selfstability during very early stage of diabetes.

Diabetes mellitus patients have the characteristics of higher morbidity of ischemic stroke, severe symptoms, more recurrent stroke and higher mortality. Current studies have shown that stroke patients with or without diabetes mellitus have different pathophysiological mechanisms during stroke progress. Accordingly, treatment that is beneficial to non-diabetes mellitus patients may not be beneficial to diabetes mellitus stroke patients. This article reviews the current research status of pathophysiological mechanism of diabetes mellitus complicated with ischemic stroke, and provides reference for the relevant research of drug intervention in diabetes mellitus patients complicated with stroke.
Objective To observe whether theograde axial flow of retinal ganglion cells (RGC) in diabetic rats at the early stage was damaged. Methods Diabetic model was induced by streptozotocin in 6 adult male Sprague-Dawley (SD)rats. Fluorogold (FG) was injected to the superior colliculi 4 weeks later.Streched preparation of retina was made 12 and 72 hours after the injection, and was stained after photographed by fluorescent microscope. The proportion of RGC with different sizes labeled by FG was calculated. Other 6 normal adult male SD rats were in the control group. Results Twelve hours after injection with FG, there was no difference of the total number of RGC in experimental and control group, but the ratio of small RGC was lower in experimental group than that in the control group; 72 hours after injection with FG, The number of RGC, especially the small RGC, decreased obviously in experimental group compared with the control group. Conclusion The speed of the retrograde axial flow of RGC in diabetic rats at the early stage is affected, and the small RGC are damageable. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2006, 22: 4-6)
The interaction mechanism between mental disorders and diabetes is complex, involving genetics, endocrine metabolism, inflammation, oxidative stress and other aspects, which makes it difficult to treat patients with mental disorders complicated by diabetes. Such patients mostly use drugs and non-drug interventions to relieve symptoms of mental disorders and improve blood sugar levels, but the mechanism of mental disorders and diabetes needs to be systematically summarized and needs practical means to intervene. This article starts with the pathogenesis of diabetes and then describes the interaction mechanism of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression and diabetes in detail. Finally, the intervention measures for patients with mental disorders complicated by diabetes are summarized, which aims to provide a reference for medical staff engaged in related work.
Objective To observe the morphological changes of dendrite and soma in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) which subsisted in early diabetic rats. Methods The RGCs of 3-months-course diabetic rats and coeval normal rats were marked by gene gun techniques. To collect RGCs photographs by Leica microscope with Z axis and CCD camera；to observe the changes of diameter, variance of structural features in dendritic field and somata after classification which according to the size and morphology. Thy-1 antibody marks on the retinal RGCs, taking a photograph under fluorescent microscope, counting the changes of retinal RGCs density in early diabetic rat. Results In three-month diabetic rats,the density of retinal RGCs was decreased obviously. Morphological changes of RGCs in the dendritic fields were observed with gene gun technique. There was no severe variation in all kinds of the bole of cell dendrite, in which some only showed crispation partially and sparseness also twisting in the dendritic ramus. The mean diameter of dendritic field and soma in class A of diabetic rats was (401plusmn;86) mu;m, the mean diameter of dendritic field in control group was (315plusmn;72) mu;m,compared with each other, there is statistically significant differences (t=21.249，Plt;0.001); the mean diameter of soma in class A of diabetic rats was (24plusmn;6) mu;m, the mean diameter of soma in control group was (22plusmn;5) mu;m, compared with each other, there is no statistically significant differences (t=0.927，Pgt;0.05); the mean diameter of dendritic field and soma in class B of diabetic rats were (170plusmn;36)、(14plusmn;2) mu;m respectively, in control group were (165plusmn;36)、(16plusmn;2) mu;m, the mean diameter of dendritic field and soma in class C of diabetic group were(265plusmn;78)、(17plusmn;5) mu;m respectively, in control group were (251plusmn;57)、(17plusmn;4) mu;m , compared with each other, there are on statistically significant differences(t=1.357，0.798，0.835，1.104，Pgt;0.05). Conclusions In short-term diabetes, the survived RGCs show good plasticity in adult diabetic rats, especially in class A. The changes of dendrites were more sensitive than the soma, which could be the leading index of the morphologic changes of RGCs in the early stage. The good plasticity showed by the RGCs and the time window from changing in dendrite to cell death provide us many evidences not only for the research but also for the nerve protection in clinic.

ObjectiveTo investigate the current status of visual disability in people with opportunistic diabetes based on the physical examination center, and explore its related factors. MethodsPeople who went to West China Hospital of Sichuan University (West China Hospital district and Wenjiang hospital district) for physical examination between January 2019 and March 2020 were selected. The subjects were those who had a history of diabetes or fasting blood glucose≥7 mmol/L or glycosylated hemoglobin≥6.5%. They were divided into two groups according to visual acuity. The physical examinees with low vision were the observation group, and the physical examinees with normal vision were the control group (the number of cases was twice that of the observation group). The relevant data of the two groups were observed and compared, and the risk factors of low vision were analyzed by logistic regression. ResultsA total of 1 636 physical examinees with diabetes were included. There were 158 cases in the observation group and 316 cases in the control group. 158 cases (203 eyes) had low vision, and the incidence was 6.20% (203/3272). The main diseases leading to low vision were cataract (92 cases, 58.23%), high myopia (32 cases, 20.25%) and diabetes retinopathy (20 cases, 12.66%). Logistic regression analysis showed that the independent risk factors for low vision were age of diabetes patients, diabetes retinopathy, systolic blood pressure and glycosylated hemoglobin. ConclusionsThe incidence of low vision in diabetes population based on physical examination centers in Chengdu is low. Visual acuity examination should be strengthened for diabetes patients, especially the elderly, with diabetes retinopathy, high systolic blood pressure and glycosylated hemoglobin. Early effective prevention and treatment can reduce the damage to vision caused by diabetes.
The islet transplantation site can be divided into two categories: orthotopic islet transplantation and ectopic islet transplantation. Orthotopic islet transplantation refers to that the insulin secreted and released from the transplanted islet will be metabolized into the liver through the hepatic portal vein system, which does not change the original insulin metabolic pathway, including the portal vein of the liver, the greater omentum. The insulin secreted by the ectopic islet transplantation changes the original metabolic pathway of insulin. The ideal islet transplantation site generally has the following characteristics: high success rate transplantation, high long-term survival rate of graft, simple operation, less trauma, less complications, low risk, easy to repeat detection and so on. This article provides a review of the current research status of each islet transplantation site, in order to provide reference for future related research.
Objective To evaluate the effect of the local del ivery of basic fibroblast growth factor 2 (bFGF-2) on the osseointegration around titanium implant of diabetic rats. Methods The bFGF-2-loaded poly (lactic-co-glycol ic acid) microspheres were prepared by water/oil/water (W/O/W) double-emulsion solvent evaporation method. Thirty-five male SPF level Sprague Dawley rats, weighing 220-250 g and aged 9 weeks, were selected as experimental animals. Ten rats were fedwith the routine diet as normal control group. The other 25 rats were made the diabetic animal model by giving high fat-sugar diet and a low dose streptozotocin (30 mg/ kg) intravenously; 20 rats were made the diabetic animal model successfully. Then 20 rats were randomly divided into diabetic control group (n=10) and bFGF-2 intervention group (n=10). A hole was drilled in the right tibia bone of all rats, and the titanium implant treated by micro-arc oxidation surface was planted into the hole. Simultaneously, the previously prepared microspheres and blood were mixed and were loaded on the surface of the implant before it was implanted into the rats of the bFGF-2 intervention group. At 4 and 8 weeks, the tibia containing implants was harvested, embedded with resin and made undecalcified tissue sl ices to compare the osseointegration. Results At 4 weeks, the implants of the normal control group were surrounded by new lamellar bone with continuity; whereas the tissue around the implants of the diabetic control group contained l ittle woven bone and some fibrous tissue; and obvious new formed bone with continuity was observed in bFGF-2 intervention group. At 8 weeks, the results of 3 groups were similar to those at 4 weeks. At 4 weeks, the percentage of bone-implant contact (BIC) in diabetic control group was significantly less than those in normal control group (P lt; 0.05) and in bFGF-2 intervention group (P lt; 0.05); the BIC in bFGF-2 intervention group was less than in normal control group, but showing no significant difference (P gt; 0.05). After 8 weeks, the BIC in normal control group and in bFGF-2 intervention group were significantly greater than that in diabetic control group (P lt; 0.05), but there was no significant difference between bFGF-2 intervention group and normal control group (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion Local del ivery of bFGF-2 around titanium implants may improve the osseointegration in diabetic rats.
Objective To analyze the causes of missed diagnosis of sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome ( SAHS) . Methods 42 missed diagnosed cases with SAHS from May 2009 to May 2011 were retrospectively analyzed and related literatures were reviewed. Results The SAHS patients often visited the doctors for complications of SAHS such as hypertension, diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, etc. Clinical misdiagnosis rate was very high. Lack of specific symptoms during the day, complicated morbidities, and insufficient knowledge of SAHS led to the high misdiagnosis rate and the poor treatment effect of patients with SAHS. Conclusion Strengthening the educational propaganda of SAHS, detail medical history collection, and polysomnography monitoring ( PSG) as early as possible can help diagnose SAHS more accurately and reduce missed diagnosis.
ObjectiveTo explore the action of dominant-negative effect on mutant insulin gene-induced diabetes.Methods293T cells were transfected with a recombinant plasmid containing mutant preproinsulinogen complementary DNA (cDNA) and a recombinant plasmid containing human wild-type preproinsulinogen cDNA. There were 5 mutant groups which mutant preproinsulins respectively bear substitutions V(A3)L, C(A7)Y, R(SP6)H, G(B8)S or G(C28)R. Wild-type mouse preproinsulin and wild-type human preproinsulin were co-transfected as normal control group. After 48 hours, medium and cells were collected. Human proinsulin were detected by human-specific proinsulin radioimmunoassay.ResultsCompared with the control group [(135.84±1.89) pmol/L], human proinsulin levels in medium of C(A7)Y group [(29.28±6.85) pmol/L] and G(B8)S group[(33.62±10.52) pmol/L] decreased significantly (P<0.01). There was no significant difference in human proinsulin level between the other groups and the control group (P>0.05).ConclusionMutants C(A7)Y and G(B8)S induce the dominant-negative effect on co-existing wild-type proinsulin.
