목적 : The early event of diabetic retinopathy (DR) is the breakdown of blood-retinal barrier, leading to the increased secretion of inflammatory cytokines. We investigated the role of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in inflammatory cytokines production, and verified the protective effect of clioquinol and zinc in human retinal pericytes (HRP) treated with advanced glycation end products (AGE) or modified low-density lipoprotein (mLDL). 방법 : Cultured HRP cells were treated with 500 ug/ml AGE or 100 ug/ml mLDL, for 24 hours. Clioquinol, the zinc ionophore, was added with or without zinc supplementation. The expression of GRP78 and MCP-1 was determined by western blot, for the evaluation of the ER stress and the induction of diabetes-related inflammatory cytokines respectively. 결과 : After exposure of 500 ug/ml AGE or 100 ug/ml mLDL, GRP78 was increased at 6 and 12 hours, respectively. The expression of MCP-1 was increased in 16 hours of exposure. The expression of GRP78 and MCP-1 was attenuated by clioquinol and zinc supplementation in AGE or mLDL-exposed HRP. 결론 : We verified that the expression of GRP78 and MCP-1 was increased in AGE or mLDL-exposed HRP, and that clioquinol attenuated this with zinc supplementation. This suggests that clioquinol may prevent ER stress and the induction of diabetes-related inflammatory cytokines by restoring intracellular zinc level, and further evaluation is needed for its possible protective effect in diabetic retinopathy.
