血清FGF2与糖尿病视网膜病变的研究进展
Advances in the Study of Serum FGF2 and Diabetic Retinopathy
摘要: 糖尿病视网膜病变(Diabetic Retinopathy, DR)作为糖尿病最严重的慢性并发症之一,其所致的糖尿病性黄斑水肿(Diabetic Macular Edema, DME)已成为成年人视力丧失的主要原因。当前研究表明,血管内皮生长因子(Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor, VEGF)主导的促血管生成通路在DME发病中起核心作用,但临床抗VEGF治疗存在30%左右的无应答率,表明需深入探索其他致病因子的协同作用。成纤维细胞生长因子2 (Fibroblast Growth Factor-2, FGF2)作为最早发现的促血管生成因子,既往研究揭示其在DME病理进程中具有重要潜在价值。本文系统综述FGF2的生物学特性、与VEGF的协同作用机制、在DR进展中的临床相关性及靶向治疗前景,为DME的精准诊疗提供新思路。
Abstract: Diabetic retinopathy (DR), one of the most serious chronic complications of diabetes mellitus, and its resultant diabetic macular edema (DME) have become the leading cause of vision loss in adults. Current studies suggest that the pro-angiogenic pathway dominated by Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of DME, but clinical anti-VEGF therapy has a non-response rate of about 30%, suggesting that the synergistic effects of other pathogenic factors need to be explored in depth. Fibroblast Growth Factor-2 (FGF2), as the earliest identified pro-angiogenic factor, has been revealed in previous studies to be potentially valuable in the pathologic process of DME. This paper systematically reviews the biological properties of FGF2, its synergistic mechanism with VEGF, its clinical relevance in the progression of DR, and the prospect of targeted therapy, which will provide new ideas for the precise diagnosis and treatment of DME.
