Diabetic retinopathy is a vascular complication of diabetes, and homocysteine is an intermediate product of methionine metabolism. Hyperhomocysteinemia can directly or indirectly damage vascular endothelial cells, causing vascular endothelial cells dysfunction and participating in the occurrence and development of diabetic retinopathy. Uric acid is the final product of purine metabolism. Hyperuricemia can cause vascular endothelial dysfunction, oxidative metabolism, platelet adhesion and aggregation dysfunction, thus participating in the occurrence and development of diabetic retinopathy. In recent years, there have been many studies on the correlation between diabetic retinopathy and levels of homocysteine and uric acid. This article reviews the relevant literature at home and abroad in order to provide new information for the prevention and treatment of diabetic retinopathy.

Objective Methods Ninety male Wister rats were randomly divided into normal control group, diabetic group and FTY720 group, thirty rats in each group. Diabetes was induced by giving a single intraperitoneal injection of streptozocin. FTY720 group was administered with FTY720 at a dose of 0.3 mg/kg by oral gavage daily for 3 months after establishment of diabetes. All rats were used for experiments following intervention for 3 months in FTY720 group. Immunohistochemical staining was used to observe the expression and distribution of intercellular adhesion molecule (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule (VCAM-1), and the positive cells were counted. Real-time reverse transcription PCR was used to measure mRNA expression of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1. Fluorescein isothiocyanate-Concanavalin A perfusion was used to detect retinal leukocytes adhesion. Evans blue (EB) perfusion was used to analyze retinal vascular permeability. Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect retinal inflammatory cells infiltration. Results In diabetic group, both ICAM-1(t=12.81) and VCAM-1 (t=11.75) positive cells as well as their mRNA expression (t=16.14, 9.59) were increased compared with normal control group, with statistical significance (P < 0.05). In FTY720 group, both ICAM-1(t=-9.93) and VCAM-1 (t=-6.61) positive cells as well as their mRNA expression (t=-15.28, -6.10) were decreased compared with diabetic group, with statistical significance (P < 0.05). Retinal leukocytes adhesion (t=16.32) and EB permeability (t=17.83) were increased in diabetic group compared with normal control group, while they were decreased in FTY720 group compared with diabetic group(t=-9.93, -11.82),with statistical significance (P < 0.05). There were many CD45 positive leukocytes infiltration in retina of diabetic group, including CD11b positive macrophage/activated microglia, while both of them were little in FTY720 group. Conclusions FTY720 can decrease retinal leukocytes adhesion, reduce retinal vascular permeability and inflammatory cells infiltration, which is associated with down-regulation of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1.
The pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy (DR) is complex and there are many related risk factors. It is related to the course of diabetes, blood glucose, blood pressure, and blood lipids, among which the course of disease and hyperglycemia are recognized main risk factors. In addition, other factors which include heredity, gender, age, obesity, pregnancy, insulin use, can also affect the occurrence and development of DR, but there is no unified conclusion about its correlation. A comprehensive understanding of the risk factors that affect DR can provide new ideas for the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and intervention of DR.
Objective To assess the influence of different digestive tract reconstruction on the blood glucose of gastric antral cancer patients with type 2 diabetes. Methods The clinical data of 51 cases of gastric antral cancer with type 2 diabetes treated radical surgery in this hospital from January 2006 to January 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into three groups according to the different digestive tract reconstruction methods：BillrothⅠ anastomosis group （n=14）， BillrothⅡ anastomosis group （n=28）， and Roux-en-Y anastomosis group （n=9）. The indexes were analyzed and compared among three groups：① The levels of fast blood glucose （FBG） and 2h postprandial blood glucose （PG2h） were detected before operation and on 1 month and 6 months after the operation；② The level of glycated hemoglobin （HbA1c） was detected before operation and 6 months after the operation；③ The diabetes control was observed. Results The FBG and PG2h levels in the BillrothⅠ anastomosis group detected on 1 month and 6 months after the operation were not statistically different from those detected before the operation （P＞0.05）. The FBG and PG2h levels in the BillrothⅡanastomosis group and Roux-en-Y anastomosis group detected on 1 month and 6 months after the operation were significantly lower than those before the operation respectively （P＜0.05）. The FBG and PG2h levels in the BillrothⅡ anastomosis group detected on 1 month and 6 months after the operation were not statistically different from those in the Roux-en-Y anastomosis group respectively （P＞0.05）， but which were markedly lower than those in the BillrothⅠ anastomosis group， the differences were statistically significant （P＜0.05）. The HbA1c levels in the BillrothⅠ anastomosis group detected before the operation and on 6 months after the operation were not statistically different from each other （P＞0.05）. The HbA1c levels in the BillrothⅡ anastomosis group and Roux-en-Y anastomosis group detected on 6 months after the operation were markedly lower than those before the operation and the difference was statistically significant （P＜0.05）. On 6 months after the operation， the HbA1c levels in the BillrothⅡanastomosis group and Roux-en-Y anastomosis group were markedly lower than those in the BillrothⅠ anastomosis group and the differences were statistically significant （P＜0.05）；the HbA1c level was not statistically different between the BillrothⅡ anastomosis group and the Roux-en-Y anastomosis group （P＞0.05）. The total curative effects in the BillrothⅡ anastomosis and Roux-en-Y anastomosis groups were significantly better than those in the BillrothⅠ anastomosis group （P＜0.05）. Conclusion According to our limited clinical data， BillrothⅡ anastomosis and Roux-en-Y anastomosis for gastric antral cancer patients with type 2 diabetes may be the best surgical approach.

Microparticles are small vesicles that are released by budding of the plasma membrane during cellular activation and apoptotic cell breakdown. A spectrum of cell types can release microparticles including endothelial cells, platelets, macrophages, lymphocytes and tumor cells. Biological effects of microparticles mainly include procoagulant activity, inhibition of inflammation and cancer progression. The present study shows that vitreous microparticles isolated from proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) stimulated endothelial cell proliferation and increased new vessel formation, promoting the pathological neovascularization in PDR patients. Oxidative stress induces the formation of retina pigment epithelium-derived microparticles carrying membrane complement regulatory proteins, which is associated with drusen formation and age related macular degeneration. Microparticles from lymphocyte (LMP) play an important role in anti-angiogenesis by altering the gene expression pattern of angiogenesis-related factors in macrophages. Besides, LMP are important proapoptotic regulators for retinoblastoma cells through reduction of spleen tyrosine kinase expression and upregulation of the p53-p21 pathway which ultimately activates caspase-3. However, how to apply the microparticles in the prevention and treatment of retinal diseases is a major challenge, because the study of the microparticles in the fundus diseases is still limited. Further studies conducted would certainly enhance the application of microparticles in the fundus diseases.
