青光眼视功能损害的病理基础是视网膜神经节细胞(RGCs)的进行性死亡和视神经纤维的丢失,神经节细胞死亡主要是通过细胞凋亡的方式进行的。刺激RGCs凋亡的信号有多种,如视网膜缺血,兴奋性谷氨酸释放,一氧化氮(NO)增多,神经营养因子剥夺及其他细胞外环境的改变。这些细胞外部因素通过不同的信号传导途径影响着细胞内控制凋亡的相关基因,如caspase-3,bcl-2及p53,从而间接地调控细胞凋亡。从视网膜神经节细胞凋亡的信号传导途径和细胞凋亡的基因调控两方面介绍其研究进展。并探求其可能的保护机制。 相似文献

Photoreceptor cell death is the ultimate cause of vision loss in various retinal disorders, including retinal detachment (RD). Photoreceptor cell death has been thought to occur mainly through apoptosis, which is the most characterized form of programmed cell death. The caspase family of cysteine proteases plays a central role for inducing apoptosis, and in experimental models of RD, dying photoreceptor cells exhibit caspase activation; however, there is a paradox that caspase inhibition alone does not provide a sufficient protection against photoreceptor cell loss, suggesting that other mechanisms of cell death are involved. Recent accumulating evidence demonstrates that non-apoptotic forms of cell death, such as autophagy and necrosis, are also regulated by specific molecular machinery, such as those mediated by autophagy-related proteins and receptor-interacting protein kinases, respectively. Here we summarize the current knowledge of cell death signaling and its roles in photoreceptor cell death after RD and other retinal degenerative diseases. A body of studies indicate that not only apoptotic but also autophagic and necrotic signaling are involved in photoreceptor cell death, and that combined targeting of these pathways may be an effective neuroprotective strategy for retinal diseases associated with photoreceptor cell loss. 相似文献

Retinal detachment (RD) is one of the most common causes of blindness. This separation of the neurosensory retina from its underlying retinal pigment epithelium results in photoreceptor loss, which is the basis of permanent visual impairment. This review explores the various cell death mechanisms in photoreceptor death associated with RD. One of the major mechanisms is apoptosis, mediated by the intrinsic pathway, the Fas signalling pathway and/or the caspase-independent pathway. Other pathways of mechanisms include endoplasmic reticulum stress-mediated cell death, programmed necrosis and cytokine-related pathways. Understanding the mechanism of RD-associated photoreceptor death is likely to help us improve the current therapies or devise new strategies for this sight-threatening condition. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To characterize photoreceptor cell apoptosis and cell loss in a mouse model of experimental retinal detachment (RD), and to use the technology of mouse genetics to study the molecular mechanisms underlying RD-associated photoreceptor degeneration. METHODS: Retinal detachments were created in adult wild-type and Bax-deficient mice by subretinal injection of 1.4% sodium hyaluronate. At 1, 3, 7, and 28 days after injection, animals were killed, eyes enucleated, and retinal sections studied by histochemistry, immunofluorescence labeling, and confocal microscopy. Rods and cones were labeled, and apoptotic cells were identified with terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick-end labeling (TUNEL). Photoreceptor cell apoptosis and cell loss were assessed quantitatively by counting both surviving and TUNEL-positive rods and cones. RESULTS: TUNEL-positive cells were found within the outer nuclear layer (ONL) of the detached portions of the retina. They were detected in the detached retina on day 1, peaked on day 3, and dropped precipitously after day 7 after RD. Photoreceptor cell loss of both rods and cones followed a similar time course after RD. Moreover, deletion of the proapoptotic gene Bax in a knockout mouse model abolished the RD-associated photoreceptor cell degeneration. CONCLUSIONS: Apoptosis is a major mechanism leading to photoreceptor cell death after RD. Blockage of the activity of the proapoptotic molecule Bax in a knockout mouse model prevents photoreceptor cell apoptosis and cell loss. These data suggest that the Bax-mediated apoptotic signaling pathway plays a critical role in RD-associated photoreceptor cell death. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Although photoreceptor cell apoptosis has been demonstrated in various animal models of retinal detachment (RD), little is known about its occurrence in human RD. We sought to determine whether human photoreceptor cells undergo apoptosis in response to primary and recurrent RD. DESIGN: Prospective, clinical-pathologic, case series. METHODS: Retinal tissue fragments excised during the course of vitreous surgery for RD and recurrent RD were frozen, cut into 4-mum sections, and analyzed using a TdT-dUTP terminal nick-end labeling assay for cell apoptosis. The onset of patient symptoms was used to estimate the duration of the RD. RESULTS: There were eight patients with primary RD and four patients with recurrent RD enrolled in this study. Duration of RD ranged from 1 to 180 days in the primary RD group, and 2 to 15 days in the recurrent RD group. All retinal tissue specimens had TUNEL-positive cells localized to the outer nuclear layer of the retina, consistent with the localization of photoreceptor cell bodies. TUNEL-positive cells were first identified at 24 hours, peaked by 2 days, and dropped to a low level by 7 days after RD. Recurrent RD induced a greater number of TUNEL-positive cells/mm(2) in the ONL compared with primary RD at corresponding timepoints after the onset of RD. CONCLUSIONS: In response to primary and recurrent RD, human photoreceptor cells follow a pattern of apoptosis that is similar to that seen in animal models of RD. This study suggests that photoreceptor cell apoptosis may be one of the causes of reduced vision after RD, especially those that involve the macula. Drugs that inhibit photoreceptor apoptosis may help improve the final visual prognosis of patients with RD. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Although apoptosis is assumed to play a pivotal role in retinal function loss, its mechanism and real influence on retinal function are still unclear. To investigate the relation between retinal function and apoptosis, we studied photoreceptor apoptosis in experimental retinal detachment (RD). METHODS: We induced RD by subretinal injection of sodium hyaluronate in Brown Norway rats. Apoptotic photoreceptors were detected by TdT-dUTP Terminal Nick-End Labeling (TUNEL). To evaluate the function of the detached retina, electroretinograms (ERGs) were taken on day 1, 3 with corneal electrodes and full-field stimulation. RESULTS: Apoptotic DNA fragmentation appeared 12 hours after RD, was most prominent on day 3, and decreased thereafter. The ERGs showed that the amplitudes of dark-adapted a-waves and light adapted 2 Hz b-waves decreased immediately after RD and continued to decrease over time. The administration of Fas/Fc chimera recombinant protein or a caspase inhibitor, Z-VAD.fmk, failed to prevent either photoreceptor apoptosis or retinal functional damage. In contrast, brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) significantly impeded both apoptosis and dysfunction. The ERGs recognized the functional changes sensitively, and these ERG changes correlated well to the amount of photoreceptor apoptosis. Immunohistochemical study showed that apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF), a novel caspase-independent apoptotic factor, was relocalized from mitochondria to the nucleus in this process. CONCLUSIONS: The present results showed that apoptosis was a key phenomenon in the retinal dysfunction in RD and that this process was transmitted mainly by mitochondria-dependent pathways rather than Fas/Fas-L or downstream caspase dependent pathways. 相似文献

PURPOSE: To study the involvement of apoptosis using different apoptosis markers in PVR pathogenesis. METHODS: The presence of mRNA coding for Fas, Fas ligand (FasL), and TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL) was investigated in vitreous samples from 46 consecutive patients-25 with PVR, 11 with retinal detachment (RD) not complicated by PVR, and 10 with macular hole (MH)-using RT-PCR. From previously examined vitreous samples, 21 PVR, 9 RD, and 10 MH were examined for their levels of TGF-beta2 protein with sandwich ELISA kits. Five epiretinal membranes excised from five patients with PVR were also examined for apoptotic cell death using the terminal deoxytransferase (TdT) mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling (TUNEL) technique. RESULTS: FAS mRNA was detected in 72% of patients with PVR, 55% of patients with RD and 20% of patients with MH. TRAIL mRNA was detected in 67% of patients with PVR, 89% of patients with RD, and 20% of patients with MH. FasL mRNA was detected in 20% of patients with PVR, 9% of patients with RD, and 10% of patients with MH. The median levels of Fas and TRAIL mRNA were significantly higher (P < 0.05) in patients with PVR than in those with MH hole but between patients with PVR and those with RD the difference was not significant (P > 0.05). A significant difference was detected between RD and MH for TRAIL mRNA levels (P = 0.008). For FasL, no significant difference between groups was found. TGF-beta2 was detected in all investigated vitreous samples. A significant difference was found between the PVR and MH groups (P = 0.001) and between the RD and MH groups (P = 0.004), but not between the PVR and RD groups (P < 0.05). The level of TGF-beta2 was significantly correlated to the level of TRAIL mRNA (r = 0.86), but no correlation was found between TGF-beta2 and Fas mRNA levels (r = 0.21). Four of five examined PVR epiretinal membranes showed positive staining for apoptotic cells using the TUNEL technique. CONCLUSIONS: Apoptosis is one of the mechanisms that is involved in PVR pathogenesis. Different apoptosis markers suggest different pathways occur in PVR, including Fas/FasL, TRAIL, and TGF-beta2 mediated processes. 相似文献

AIM: To evaluate whether an achromatic interferometer, the Lotmar visometer, is useful in predicting postoperative visual outcome in patients with primary rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RD) involving the macula. METHODS: This prospective study included 40 eyes of 40 non-consecutive patients with macula-off RD. The eyes were phakic or pseudophakic, had a clear optical media, and had a measurable potential vision on preoperative visometric examination. Preoperative variables included Snellen visual acuity, duration of macular detachment, extent of RD, and visometric potential acuity. Reattachment surgery consisted of radial scleral buckling in 33 patients, circumferential scleral buckling and encircling in seven patients, and subretinal fluid drainage in 10 patients. Retinal breaks were treated with cryotherapy or laser photocoagulation. Patients were followed up for at least 6 months after uncomplicated surgery. Best corrected visual acuity measured at any time during follow up was correlated with the preoperative variables. RESULTS: Preoperative visual acuity was less than 20/200 in 37 (93%) of 40 patients. Potential visual acuity of 20/200 or better was measured using the Lotmar visometer in 37 patients (93%). Postoperative visual acuity was correlated significantly with duration of macular detachment (r=0.55; p<0.001), and extent of RD approached statistical significance (r=0.31; p=0.05). There was a higher correlation between postoperative visual acuity and the visometric measurements (r=0.61; p<0.001). CONCLUSIONS: The Lotmar visometer may be a valuable method to estimate visual outcome after uncomplicated scleral buckling surgery in patients with RD involving the macula. 相似文献
