Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The systemic conditions of diabetic patients such as hyperglycemia and hypertension cause vascular endothelial cell dysfunction of the retina, particularly of blood capillaries, and retinal circulatory dysfunction and ischemia that subsequently damage retinal tissues. These pathological conditions are considered to be the same as the molecular mechanism of inflammation, which includes inflammatory cells (dendritic cells and macrophages ) and many inflammatory cytokines including VEGF. According to these molecular mechanisms, anti-inflammatory corticosteroids have been proved to be effective and safe treatment modalities. Our present research clarified that the ocular topical administration of anti-inflammatory corticosteroid (difluprednate) is useful to treat diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema.
