| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The study objective was to examine the role of DPP4 in the retinal microcirculation. Using isolated porcine retinal arterioles, intraluminal DPP4 treatment significantly attenuated the retinal endothelial function in a dose-dependent manner. We also showed that DPP4 inhibitor teneligliptin prevented retinal endothelial dysfunction induced by DPP4. In addition, in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, the plasma DPP4 concentrations were correlated negatively with the retinal vessel diameter and retinal blood flow in men. In conclusion, overproduction of DPP4 caused endothelial dysfunction of the retinal arterioles, and may be associated with decreased retinal blood flow.
