2 DM… a risk factor of glaucoma?
Prevelence of COAG appears to be higher in the diabetic population. However, findings from numerous clinical studies on the association of diabetes and glaucoma are inconsistent. - in Shield’s textbook 당뇨가 녹내장의 위험인자 인지에 대해서는 논란이 많은데ㅡ 당뇨환자에서 COAG의 유병율이 높은것으로 알려져 있지만.. 여러 연구들에서 당뇨와 녹내장의 관계에서 일치되지않는 결과들을 나타내었습니다 교수님께서 이 논문의 내용이나 결과 해석에 치중하지말고… 크게 봐서 당뇨가 녹내장의 위험인자인지에 대한 논란이 있는 것을 부각시키고 당뇨가 녹내장의 위험인자가 될 수 있는 이론적 background를 찾는 의미에서 고른 논문임을 부각시키라고 하시네. 이에 관련된 내용을 좀더 찾아서 보강하면 좋을듯…

3 DM… a risk factor of glaucoma? what about the mechanism?
Vascular dysfunction Hyperglycemic-induced cell apoptosis vs 당뇨가 녹내장의 원인이라면 그 메커니즘은 무엇인지에대해, ㄱVSCULAR DYSFUNCTION이 원인이지, 또는 HYPERGLYCEMIC INDUCED CELL APOPTOSIS가 원인이지에대해 연구가 되고 있습니다. 이 논문은 HYPERGLYCEMIC INDUCED CELL APOPTOSIS에 관련된 논문으로, 당뇨와 녹내장의 관련성에 대해 생각해보는 계기가 될 수 있을것입니다.

4 INTRODUCTION protein kinase C (PKC)-δ
mediate anti-apoptotic signaling cascade through the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase)–mediated survival pathway promote apoptosis by interfering with Akt signal Akt downstream target of PI 3-kinase through the phosphorylation of two key regulation residue, Thr308 and Ser473 on Akt plays an integral role in cell survival protein kinase C (PKC)-δ 는 phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase 통한 survival pathway를 통해 anti-apoptotic signaling cascade 를 조절하며, 또한 AKT signal을 억제하여 apoptosis를 유발한다고 알려져있습니다. Akt는 PI 3 kinase 의 downstream target으로, Thr308 and Ser473 두 residue의 phosphorylation에 의해 직용하여 cell survival에 관여한다고 알려져 있습니다.

5 INTRODUCTION Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A)
regulation of cell proliferation and survival through its ability to dephosphorylate Akt Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) counteracts the effect of PP2A direct binding to Akt, protecting Akt from PP2A-mediated dephosphorylation functioning as a positive regulator of Akt signaling Akt- or HSP-mediated cytoprotection is regulated by PKC Protein phosphatase 2A 는 Akt를 dephosphorylatet시켜 cell proliferation 과 survival을 조절하며, Heat shock protein 90 는 PP2A와 길항작용으로, Akt와 결합하여 pp2a에 의한 Dephosphorylation을 방지합니다. 결론적으로 PKC에 의해 A kt나 HSP을 통해 세포 보호작용이 중제된다고 알려져 있습니다

23 DISCUSSION PKC- δ activation is responsible for neuro-retinal apoptosis in diabetic OLETF rats via the inactivation of Akt. apoptosis occurs only in ganglion cells of the 35-week OLETF retinas PKC- δ activity is greatly increased in 35-week OLETF retinas compared with 24- or 35-week LETO and 24-week OLETF retinas PKC- δ activation is involved in ganglion cell death in OLETF rat retinas. PKC- δ activation은 AKT을 INACTIVATION 시켜서 당뇨쥐에서 NEURORETINAL APOPTOSIS를 일으킵니다. 이 APOPTOSIS는 GANGLION CELL에서만 일어났고, PKC- δ activity는 35주 당뇨쥐에서 가장 높게 측정되었습니다. 이결과로 PKC-델타는 당뇨쥐에서 GANGLION CELL DEATH를 일으킨다고 할수 있습니다..

28 DISCUSSION PKC- δ mediates neuronal death in retinas of diabetic rats via PP2A activation and Akt signaling inhibition Ganglion cell death occurs early as an initial event in diabetic retinopathy mechanism of this cell death is unknown. specific PKC- δ inhibitors may have potential for therapeutic agents for the prevention of human diabetic retinopathy. 마지막으로, Specific PKC –D INHIBITOR는 인간 당뇨망막증에서 치료제로 가능성을 갖을 수 있겠다.
