摘要: 人类免疫缺陷病毒(human immunodeficiency virus,HIV)是导致获得性免疫缺陷综合征的病原。流行病学调查显示,HIV感染者较非HIV感染者年龄相关性黄斑变性(age-related macular degeneration,AMD)患病率增加。HIV通过包膜表面的糖蛋白120和转录反式激活因子,下调视网膜色素上皮细胞(retinal pigment epithelium cells,RPEC)中紧密连接蛋白,破坏血-视网膜屏障的完整性,同时诱导RPEC发生氧化应激和炎症,导致光感受器丧失,进而促进AMD进展。(国际眼科纵览,2022, 46:361-366)

Abstract: Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is the causative agent of acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS). Epidemiological surveys have shown that the prevalence of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) in HIV infected people is higher than that in non HIV infected people. HIV down-regulates tight junction proteins in retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells, disrupting the blood-retinal barrier (BRB), and induce oxidative stress and inflammation in RPE cells through glycoprotein 120 (gp120) on the envelope surface and transactivator of transcription (Tat), resulting in the loss of photoreceptors, consequently promoting AMD progression.
