The other eight mice were used as diabetic controls. We then measured apoptosis in the retina by TdT-dUTP terminal nick-end labeling assay.Results: RAs inhibited the apoptosis of retinal cells in diabetic retinopathy. Many apoptotic cells were observed in retinas of the eight diabetic control mice (mean value and SD: 37.8 ± 6.9), whereas when diabetic mice were treated with RAs, the number of apoptotic cells significantly decreased (mean value and SD: 9.9 ± 6.4 for the seven ATRA-treated diabetic mice and 9.8 ± 5.9 for the nine Am580-treated diabetic mice) (p < 0.05).Conclusion: Treatment with RAs decreases apoptosis during the development of diabetic retinopathy.Keywords: retinoic acids, apoptosis, diabetic retinopathy, glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor Nami NishikioriMakoto OsanaiHideki ChibaTakashi KojimaShuichiro Inatomiet alDove Medical PressarticleOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol 2008, Iss Issue 1, Pp 233-235 (2008)
