چکیده
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS — Undiluted vitreous from patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) (n 13) and macular hole (MH) (n 8) was used to determine PON-HCTLase and PON-AREase activity spectrophotometrically. HCTL levels were detected by liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry. In vitro studies were done in primary cultures of bovine retinal capillary endothelial cells (BRECs) to determine the doseand time-dependent effect of HCTL and homocysteine (Hcys) on PON-HCTLase activity, as well as to determine mRNA expression of PON by RT-PCR.

Homocysteinethiolactone and Paraoxonase
OBJECTIVE Paraoxonase (PON) exhibits esterase activity (PON-AREase) and lactonase activity (PON-HCTLase), which prevent LDL oxidation and detoxify homocysteine thiolactone (HCTL). The role of HCTL and PON-HCTLase as a risk factor for the microvascular complication in diabetic retinopathy at the level of vitreous has not been investigated. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Undiluted vitreous from pa...

OBJECTIVE There are conflicting data regarding relationships of systemic biomarkers of inflammation, hemostasis, and homocysteine with diabetic retinopathy. We examined these relationships in the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS A total of 921 participants with diabetes were included. Diabetic retinopathy was graded from retinal photographs. We defined two ou...

Background and Objectives: Aerobic exercise and taking chlorella supplementation to control oxidative stress markers and paraoxonase-1 (PON1) levels in diabetic patients is of great importance. So, the aim of the present research was to investigate the effect of eight-week aerobic exercise on paraoxonase-1 and lipid hydroperoxide plasma levels in diabetic Wistar rats treated wit...

Background: The aim of this study was to estimate the prevalence, severity, and risk factors for diabetic retinopathy in diabetic cases admitted for non-ocular diabetic complications and to investigate the association between retinopathy and these complications.Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 84 diabetic patients admitted to our university-affiliated hospital for non-ocular diabetic com...
متن کاملThe Intra-Ocular Pressure of Type 2 Diabetic Patients Comparison in Diabetic Retinopathy Grades
Objective: Retinopathy is a microvascular complication of diabetes in the retina. It is hypothesized the aqueous flow decrease in patients with retinopathy which effects the Intra-ocular pressure (IOP). The purpose of this study is to determine whether a significant correlation exists between IOP and diabetic retinopathy grades. Materials and Methods: Our study is analytic cross sectional. Abo...
