Small Interfering RNA Targeted to ASPP2 Promotes Progression of Experimental Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy
Background. Epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is vital in proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) development. Apoptosis-stimulating proteins of p53 (ASPP2) have recently been reported to participate in EMT. However, the role of ASPP2 in PVR pathogenesis has not been identified. Methods. Immunohistochemistry was used to investigate the expression of ASPP2...
متن کاملSmall interfering RNA; principles, applications and challenges--
Gene silencing using RNAi (RNA interference), has recently been used as a successful laboratory technique in determining the function and control of gene expression and provides a wide range of applications in molecular biology and gene therapy. RNAi is a method of suppressing gene expression. In this direction, a single-stranded RNA molecule of about 21–23 nucleotides, called siRNA (small inte...
متن کاملTargeted delivery of small interfering RNA: approaching effective cancer therapies.
Three of the primary requirements for the development of effective dual-targeting therapeutic modalities for the treatment of cancer are the tumor-targeted delivery of the therapeutic molecules of interest to the tumor site(s) in the body (both primary and metastatic), passage of the molecular therapeutic through the cell membrane, and targeting specifically a growth or apoptotic pathway. Howev...
متن کاملProliferative vitreoretinopathy.
PURPOSE. The migration, proliferation, differentiation, and adhesion of cells and other cellular functions are influenced by the surrounding extracellular matrix, in normal and wound-healing conditions. The matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of enzymes that degrade and remodel the extracellular matrix and, thus, play a central role in the wound-healing process. Proliferative vitreore...
متن کاملAclacinomycin A in the Treatment of Experimental Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy
Methods. Dutch-belted rabbit were used to create a model for traction retinal detachment. Seven to 10 days after vitreous gas compression, 25,000 homologous fibroblasts were injected into the vitreous cavity. Subsequently, the eyes received either sham injections or doses of 6, 30, or 60 nmol of aclacinomycin A, respectively. The fundus findings were documented on days 7, 14, and 28 after the f...
