Tóm tắt

Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most common complications associated with chronic hyperglycemia seen in patients with diabetes mellitus. While many facets of DR are still not fully understood, animal studies have contributed significantly to understanding the etiology and progression of human DR. This review provides a comprehensive discussion of the induced and genetic DR models in different species and the advantages and disadvantages of each model. Rodents are the most commonly used models, though dogs develop the most similar morphological retinal lesions as those seen in humans, and pigs and zebrafish have similar vasculature and retinal structures to humans. Nonhuman primates can also develop diabetes mellitus spontaneously or have focal lesions induced to simulate retinal neovascular disease observed in individuals with DR. DR results in vascular changes and dysfunction of the neural, glial, and pancreatic β cells. Currently, no model completely recapitulates the full pathophysiology of neuronal and vascular changes that occur at each stage of diabetic retinopathy; however, each model recapitulates many of the disease phenotypes.

This is an important reference because it provides insight on how genetics plays a role in diabetic retinopathy. Understanding this will give more information on future development of therapies for treatment of this area.

Available from: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4765310/. The article discusses the use of a nonobese diabetic animal model. The use of this model has helped uncover the significance of environmental factors in the DR disease. It is also an important model to understanding autoimmune diseases in diabetes and identify the role of the immune system in disease progression.

Invest Ophthalmol Vis Sci Assoc Res Vis Ophthalmol. 2015;56(6):3721–30. Using the recently developed “Collaborative Cross” mouse resource, this study showed for the first time that alloxan-induced DR in mice could manifest in cellular lesions. The creation of mouse strains with high genetic diversity allows for development of new DR models that recapitulate more phenotypes of human disease than were previously possible.
