Persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous (PHPV) is an idiopathic congenital malformation confined to the eye that has no obvious cause and that is usually unilateral and sporadic. The clinical features of the classic PHPV syndrome include white, vascularized tissue covering some or all of the posterior surface of the lens; centrally dragged ciliary processes; secondary glaucoma caused by swelling of the lens or caused by contracture of the retrolental tissue, with anterior shifting of the lens-iris diaphragm; extensive intravitrael hemorrhaging; persistence of the hyaloid artery; and occasionally retinal detachment. In the present study we describe a patient with bilateral PHPV not associated with other diseases. Normal developmental milestones were reported. Family pedigree analysis revealed a similarly affected father, grandfather, 2 aunts, 1 paternal uncle and a grand uncle with 2 affected daughters. On examination the height, weight and skull circumference were on the 5th percentile. Bilateral B&A eye scan ultrasonography (B mode is two dimensional brightness mode ultrasonography, while A mode is one dimensional where echoes are represented by spikes of variable amplitude and timing) of both the patient and the father revealed a picture suggestive of persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous. Cytogenetics study by conventional culture technique using the CTG banding technique revealed a normal male karyotype 46, XY for both of them. Review of the London Dysmorphology Data Base (LDDB), OMIM, and recent medical literature revealed that this case to our knowledge represents the second report supporting autosomal dominant inheritance of PHPV not associated with other anomalies. 相似文献

Birdshot retinochoroidopathy is a rare bilateral ocular disorder which typically affects healthy, middle-age caucasians. The typical symptoms are recent onset of bilateral floaters with decreased vision in a white and quiet eye. Minimal anterior chamber reaction, vitreous infiltration without snowballs, and multifocal depigmented lesions in the outer retina and choroid are characteristic of birdshot retinochoroidopathy. Other associated findings include retinal vasculitis, paravascular hemorrhage, vitreous hemorrhage, cystoid macular edema, cellophane maculopathy, posterior subcapsular cataract, optic disc edema, vascular attenuation and tortuosity, optic atrophy and retinal or choroidal neovascularization. Management involves Amsler grid self-assessment and routine funduscopic examinations. A recently documented case of treatment with aromatic retinoids showed improvement while many other commonly prescribed medications are equivocal in effect. Laser photoablation or panretinal photocoagulation are recommended for treatable choroidal or retinal neovascularization, respectively. 相似文献

Mice lacking collagen XVIII and its proteolytically derived product endostatin show delayed regression of blood vessels in the vitreous along the surface of the retina after birth and lack of or abnormal outgrowth of retinal vessels. This suggests that collagen XVIII/endostatin is critical for normal blood vessel formation in the eye. All basement membranes in wild-type eyes, except Descemet's membrane, showed immunogold labeling with antibodies against collagen XVIII. Labeling at sites where collagen fibrils in the vitreous are connected with the inner limiting membrane and separation of the vitreal matrix from the inner limiting membrane in mutant mice indicate that collagen XVIII is important for anchoring vitreal collagen fibrils to the inner limiting membrane. The findings provide an explanation for high myopia, vitreoretinal degeneration and retinal detachment seen in patients with Knobloch syndrome caused by loss-of-function mutations in collagen XVIII. 相似文献

The purpose of this study was to evaluate results of combined phacoemulsification, intraocular lens implantation and pars plana vitrectomy in patients with advanced diabetic retinopathy. We retrospectively evaluated postoperative outcomes and complications in 102 eyes of 102 patients who underwent a combined procedure. All patients had a visually significant cataract. Forty two patients had vitreous hemorrhage and mild proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Sixty patients had a mild tractional retinal detachment. The median follow up was 14 months (range 6-36 months). 80% of patients had an increase of visual acuity of at least 2 Snellen lines. The most frequent early postoperative complication was elevated intraocular pressure, followed by mild fibrinous reaction. The most frequent late postoperative complication was the presence of posterior synechia, followed by glaucoma. Eleven patients required a repeated pars plana vitrectomy. Combined phacoemulsification, posterior chamber intraocular lens implantation and pars plana vitrectomy can be successfully performed in selected diabetic patients with favorable postoperative outcome. 相似文献

Liposome suspension prepared from the unsaturated phospholipids exposed to lipid peroxidation (LPO) induced posterior subcapsular cataracts after injection into the posterior vitreous of rabbit eyes. In the background of this model lies a type of lens opacity formed during retinal degeneration when toxic peroxide substances diffuse anteriorly through the vitreous body resulting in vitreous opacities and complicated cataracts. Saturated liposomes (prepared from beta-oleoyl-gamma-palmitoyl) L-alpha-lecithin) did not induce lens opacities, which is the evidence that a lipid peroxidation mechanism may be responsible for the posterior cataracts. Along with cataract formation accumulation of LPO fluorescent products in vitreous, aqueous humor and lens was observed. It was followed by a decreased level of reduced glutathione in the lens. The obtained results strongly support the hypothesis of LPO initial role in cataracts. 相似文献

Dopamine is generally accepted as a major neurotransmitter associated with light-adaptive processes in the retina. However, little is known about its precise release pattern in vivo, largely due to the lack of an unambiguous method for the determination of dopamine release. We have found that vitreal levels of dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) reflect the rate of dopamine release in chickens. Blocking re-uptake with nomifensine significantly lowered vitreal DOPAC and retinal dopamine, confirming the retinal origin and reliance of vitreal DOPAC on intact re-uptake mechanisms. Further, inhibition of monoamine oxidase with pargyline reduced vitreal as well as retinal DOPAC levels, confirming that the DOPAC detected is generated by monoamine oxidase. Finally, we found that DOPAC diffused freely into and out of isolated vitreous bodies and we found the vitreous to be metabolically inert with respect to DOPAC, supporting the idea that vitreal levels of DOPAC are consequential to the retinal metabolism of dopamine. Exposure to light, which is known to increase retinal dopamine release, readily increased vitreal DOPAC levels. The accumulation of DOPAC in the vitreous over 6 h light fitted a mathematical model of DOPAC accumulation based on zero-order influx (proportional to dopamine release rates) and diffusion driven, first-order efflux. 相似文献

The purpose of the study was to present operative technique and results of a passive hydrodynamic expression of silicone oil through planned posterior capsulorhexis during cataract surgery in patients after pars plana vitrectomy. The retrospective analysis was done on 57 eyes with cataract after a previous pars plana vitrectomy, operated on between 2001 and 2004 at the Clinical hospital "Sestre milosrdnice" Zagreb. Preoperative and postoperative best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), preoperative and postoperative intraocular pressure (IOP), and postoperative complications were reviewed. Visual acuity improved or stabilized in all patients with an attached retina. Retinal detachment occurred in 11 eyes. Transient vitreous hemorrhage, that resolved within 1 week of surgery without treatment, was observed in 4 eyes. Asymptomatic intraocular lens (IOL) decentration occurred in 2 eyes. Our findings suggest that silicone oil removal and cataract surgery can be performed as a single procedure in selected patients in the absence of macular pucker and retinal reproliferation, and in a presence of a stable retina. 相似文献

Laser irradiation of the eye is a widely used therapeutic measure in various ocular disorders. We investigated in laser-treated rabbits' eyes the changes in prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) levels of the tissue affected by the laser (the retina/choroid) and of its adjacent vitreous over a two-week period. The parameters studied were; PGE2 in vitro production by the retina/choroid, as well as PGE2 and protein levels in the vitreous, the latter indicative of a break in the blood retinal barrier (BRB). The effect of noncoherent light exposure used for illumination, and that of the mechanical manipulation involved (sham exposure) were also studied. Following laser exposure vitreal PGE2 levels were increased two-fold above baseline (days three and 14), whereas light exposure resulted in a single peak. PGE2 in vitro production by the retina/choroid in the laser-exposed group was elevated throughout the observation period, peaking twice (days 3 and 14), in the light-exposed group the enhanced production was evident during a shorter period, whereas in the sham group it remained unchanged from baseline. An elevation in vitreal protein levels to above baseline levels occurred in both the laser- and, to a lesser degree, in the noncoherent light-exposed groups, but not in the sham group. Our study demonstrated an enhanced PGE2 in vitro production by retina/choroid of laser-exposed eyes, which might be attributable to the additive effect of the laser induced trauma, and the noncoherent light photochemical changes; the clinical significance of the recurrent increase in vitreal PGE2 levels in laser-treated eyes might be related to its anti-inflammatory properties. 相似文献

The hyaloid vessel is a transient intraocular circulatory system that undergoes a complete regression as the retina becomes matured with retinal vascularization. If the complete involution of the hyaloid vessels failes, the pathological persistence of these vessels results in persistent hyperplastic primary vitreous (PHPV) associated with severe ocular pathologies. Unfortunately despite its clinical significance, cellular and molecular processes involved in hyaloid regression remain to be elucidated. Herein, we for the first time demonstrated that autophagy could contribute to the regression of hyaloid vessels in early developing retina. In developing retina, hyaloid vessel regression coincided with retinal vascular development; this occurred simultaneous with apoptotic and autophagic processes. Moreover, in vascular endothelial cells under hypoxic conditions, LC3-II conversion was detected along with caspase-3 activation. The autophagy inducer rapamycin induced autophagy-mediated cell death of vascular endothelial cells in a dose-dependent manner. Moreover, rapamycin significantly enhanced the involution of hyaloid vessels in the early developing eye. Therefore, our results suggest that the autophagy pathway would be involved in hyaloid regression that occurs during early ocular development. Furthermore, activation of the autophagy pathway could be considered for a therapeutic approach to PHPV. 相似文献

Myopia is a common ocular disorder generally due to increased axial length of the eye-globe. Its extreme form high myopia (HM) is a multifactorial disease leading to retinal and scleral damage, visual impairment or loss and is an important health issue. Mutations in the endocytic receptor LRP2 gene result in Donnai-Barrow (DBS) and Stickler syndromes, both characterized by HM. To clearly establish the link between Lrp2 and congenital HM we inactivated Lrp2 in the mouse forebrain including the neural retina and the retinal and ciliary pigment epithelia. High resolution in vivo MRI imaging and ophthalmological analyses showed that the adult Lrp2-deficient eyes were 40% longer than the control ones mainly due to an excessive elongation of the vitreal chamber. They had an apparently normal intraocular pressure and developed chorioretinal atrophy and posterior scleral staphyloma features reminiscent of human myopic retinopathy. Immunomorphological and ultrastructural analyses showed that increased eye lengthening was first observed by post-natal day 5 (P5) and that it was accompanied by a rapid decrease of the bipolar, photoreceptor and retinal ganglion cells, and eventually the optic nerve axons. It was followed by scleral thinning and collagen fiber disorganization, essentially in the posterior pole. We conclude that the function of LRP2 in the ocular tissues is necessary for normal eye growth and that the Lrp2-deficient eyes provide a unique tool to further study human HM. 相似文献

Current laser treatments are quick, relatively painless, and well tolerated. Some ophthalmic techniques can be performed only by laser while others have a lower morbidity than alternative treatments. Peripheral retinal photocoagulation and focal photocoagulation now offer greatly improved visual prognosis for diabetic patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy or diabetic macular disease. Selected cases of macular degeneration may be treated by focal laser photocoagulation. The role of lasers in treating sub-retinal neovascular membranes is limited by the extent and location of the membrane at presentation and the high risk of recurrence after treatment. Patients with distorted vision must be referred urgently for specialist ophthalmic assessment. Flat retinal holes and tears may be sealed by laser therapy, thus preventing retinal detachment. Short pulsed neodymium-YAG photodisruptive capsulotomy effectively clears the visual axis of thickened posterior lens capsule after cataract surgery. Short pulsed neodymium-YAG photodisruptive iridotomy may be used to treat and prevent angle closure glaucoma. Laser trabeculoplasty aids the control of open angle glaucoma. Research is continuing into the role of other lasers in managing open angle glaucoma and of photoablative lasers in treating refractive errors and superficial corneal disorders. 相似文献

This study was designed to evaluate iVue Spectral-domain optical coherence tomography (SD-OCT) effectiveness in screening for eye disease compared to clinical examination. Subjects were recruited from the Casey Eye Community Outreach Program Mobile Clinic during its routinely scheduled outreach clinics to indigent, underserved populations throughout Oregon. Macular optical coherence tomography interpretation and automated optical coherence tomography analysis were compared to the clinical examination, with specific attention to findings indicative of retinal abnormalities, risks for glaucoma, and narrow angles. As a result, a total of 114 subjects were included in this study. In diabetics, optical coherence tomography and clinical exam were in fair agreement (kappa = 0.39), with 22% of eyes having abnormal findings on macular optical coherence tomography and 26% of eyes having diabetic retinopathy or diabetic macular edema on fundus exam. In non-diabetics, optical coherence tomography and clinical exam were in fair agreement (kappa = 0.28), with 11% of eyes having abnormal findings on macular optical coherence tomography and 9% on fundus exam. Using optical coherence tomography ganglion cell complex and retinal nerve fiber layer analysis, 18% of eyes were found to be glaucoma suspects, whereas clinical exam of cup-to-disc ratio detected 8% and intraocular pressure 5%. Agreements between optical coherence tomography and other methods were poor (kappa < 0.11) for glaucoma suspect. Anterior segment optical coherence tomography of the angle found 8% of eyes to have occludable angles, whereas slit lamp and gonioscopy found 5% of eyes to have narrow angles, with moderate agreement (kappa = 0.57). In summary, optical coherence tomography detected additional retinal abnormalities, glaucoma suspects, and narrow angles compared to clinical exam alone and may serve as a useful adjunct to the clinical exam in screening for eye disease in a low-risk, medically underserved, ethnically diverse population. 相似文献

We investigated if bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) transplanted into the vitreous body of a glaucoma model eye could be integrated in the host retina and also whether they could rescue the retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) from death induced by the elevated intraocular pressure. Glaucoma was induced in the right eye of adult Wistar rats by ligating the episcleral veins. The GFP-expressing BMSCs (GFP-BMSCs) were injected into the vitreous body of both the control and the glaucomatous eyes. After transplantation, GFP-BMSCs were mostly present along with the inner limiting membrane and only a few cells were integrated into the ganglion cell layer. At 2 or 4 weeks after transplantation, GFP-BMSCs were observed to express various trophic factors. The BMSCs injected glaucoma model eyes showed less reduction in the number of RGCs compared to the glaucomatous eyes with PBS injection. This study suggests that BMSC transplantation may be worthy as a neuroprotective tool to treat glaucoma. 相似文献

Changes in vitreal protein and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) concentrations, as well as chorioretinal in vitro PGE2 production, were studied in rabbit eyes following Neodymium (Nd):YAG laser retinal exposure. Laser exposure was associated with an enhanced vitreal PGE2 concentration throughout a two-week observation period, with highest levels on days 1 and 7 after exposure (a 5.3 and 4.7 increase above baseline, respectively). A transitory 50% elevation above baseline in vitreal protein levels was observed in the laser-exposed eyes during the second week after exposure. Laser exposure was also associated with an enhancement in the in vitro chorioretinal PGE2 production, which varied throughout the observation period, and was more pronounced during the first week after exposure, when levels were four times higher than baseline. Initially PGE2 vitreal levels were closely related to excessive in vitro production. However, during the second week after exposure, evidence of such correlation was lacking, but PGE2 vitreal levels coincided with a small increase in vitreal protein levels. It is suggested that disruption of the blood retinal barrier by the long-term exposure to mildly elevated vitreal PGE2 levels was accountable for protein leakage, which might have affected PGE2 removal mechanisms. 相似文献

We describe a new spontaneous mutation in BALB/c mice that causes abnormal phenotype, such as congenital cataract and microphthalmia. This abnormality was found to be inheritable because offspring with the same abnormality were produced by backcrossing the abnormal male to its normal female parent. Results of various crosses made to determine the mode of inheritance indicated that this abnormality is attributable to mutation of an autosomal recessive gene. Slit lamp examination of the mutant eyes revealed total lenticular opacity, disturbed typical iris pattern, and abnormal pupillary muscle development. Histologic changes in mutant eyes between gestation day 13 and postnatal day 1 indicated various eye and lens abnormalities, including microphthalmia; underdeveloped iris, optic stalk, cornea, and retina; degenerated lens fibers with lost fibrillar structure; and vacuoles of various sizes at the posterior border of the lens. Mild opacity of the lens was found to progress with age and became denser, resembling mature cataract, and occupying the lens completely at the age of six to eight weeks. We, therefore, temporarily designated this abnormality as dense cataract and microphthalmia, with the gene symbol dcm. 相似文献

BackgroundCentral retinal vein occlusion (CRVO) is a common disease characterized by a disrupted retinal blood supply and a high risk of subsequent vision loss due to retinal edema and neovascular disease. This study was designed to assess the concentrations of selected signaling proteins in the vitreous and blood of patients with ischemic CRVO.MethodsVitreous and blood samples were collected from patients undergoing surgery for ischemic CRVO (radial optic neurotomy (RON), n = 13), epiretinal gliosis or macular hole (control group, n = 13). Concentrations of 40 different proteins were determined by an ELISA-type antibody microarray.ResultsExpression of proteins enriched in the vitreous (CCL2, IGFBP2, MMP10, HGF, TNFRSF11B (OPG)) was localized by immunohistochemistry in eyes of patients with severe ischemic CRVO followed by secondary glaucoma. Vitreal expression levels were higher in CRVO patients than in the control group (CRVO / control; p < 0.05) for ADIPOQ (13.6), ANGPT2 (20.5), CCL2 (MCP1) (3.2), HGF (4.7), IFNG (13.9), IGFBP1 (14.7), IGFBP2 (1.8), IGFBP3 (4.1), IGFBP4 (1.7), IL6 (10.8), LEP (3.4), MMP3 (4.3), MMP9 (3.6), MMP10 (5.4), PPBP (CXCL7 or NAP2) (11.8), TIMP4 (3.8), and VEGFA (85.3). In CRVO patients, vitreal levels of CCL2 (4.2), HGF (23.3), IGFBP2 (1.23), MMP10 (2.47), TNFRSF11B (2.96), and VEGFA (29.2) were higher than the blood levels (vitreous / blood, p < 0.05). Expression of CCL2, IGFBP2, MMP10, HGF, and TNFRSF11B was preferentially localized to the retina and the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE).ConclusionProteins related to hypoxia, angiogenesis, and inflammation were significantly elevated in the vitreous of CRVO patients. Moreover, some markers known to indicate atherosclerosis may be related to a basic vascular disease underlying RVO. This would imply that local therapeutic targeting might not be sufficient for a long term therapy in a systemic disease but hypothetically reduce local changes as an initial therapeutic approach. 相似文献

We report the changes of proliferative activity of the retina and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) of mouse embryos by detecting cells in the S-phase by light microscopic radioautography using 3H-thymidine. The eyes germs of mouse embryos at the embryonic days 9.5 (E 9.5), E 11.5, E 13.0, E 15.5, E 18.5 of gestational ages, were used for this experiment. Small pieces of the ocular tissues were labelled with 3H-TDR in vitro and light microscopic radioautographs were prepared. The labeling indices of the respective regions of tissues were calculated. Both tissues of retina and RPE showed high percentages of labeling indices from 10% to 50% through the developmental stages. The labeling indices of both tissues in earlier stages were generally higher than those of later stages, and gradually decreased in the later stages. However, the retina and RPE showed different courses of the changes of labeling indices respectively during the embryonic development. In the retina, the labeling indices in the vitreal portions were more than those in the scleral portions during the earlier developmental stages. However, in the later stages, the indices of scleral portions were more than those in the vitreal portions. Comparing the three regions of retina, the labeling indices of the anterior regions were generally higher than those of the equatorial and posterior regions, especially in the vitreal portion. Remarkable differences among three regions were not found in the scleral portion. In the RPE, the labeling indices gradually increased in the anterior region, but decreased in the equatorial and the posterior regions through all the developmental stages. The proliferation of both retina and RPE in the central region occurred earlier than those of the peripheral region. 相似文献
