We studied changes in growth factor levels released from human mesenchymal stem cells in the vitreous cavity as well as changes in growth factor levels in host retinal neurons following intravitreal injection.Methods: Twenty-two Lewis rats were treated with an intravitreal human mesenchymal stem cell microinjection. Determination of neurotrophic factors released by human mesenchymal stem cells in the vitreous was carried out using real-time polymerase chain reaction.Results: Detectable levels of neurotrophic factors were identified postoperatively in the vitreous of all rats.Conclusion: Increased intravitreal and retinal concentrations of neuroprotective growth factors in rats confirm the neuroprotective activity of human mesenchymal stem cells in diabetic retinopathy.Keywords: diabetic retinopathy, neuroprotection, apoptosis mechanism, stem cells, chemically induced diabetes mellitusScalinci SZScorolli LCorradetti GDomanico DVingolo EMMeduri ABifani MSiravo DDove Medical PressarticleOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol 2011, Iss default, Pp 691-696 (2011) |
