AB  - Diabetic retinopathy is not cured efficiently and changes of lifestyle measures may delay early retinal injury in
diabetes. The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of reduced daily light exposure on retinal vascular
changes in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced model of DM with emphasis on inflammation, Aqp4 expression, visual
cycle and cholesterol metabolism-related gene expression in rat retina and RPE. Male Wistar rats were divided
into the following groups: 1. control; 2. diabetic group (DM) treated with streptozotocin (100 mg/kg); 3. group
exposed to light/dark cycle 6/18 h (6/18); 4. diabetic group exposed to light/dark cycle 6/18 h (DM+6/18).
Retinal vascular abnormalities were estimated based on lectin staining, while the expression of genes involved in
the visual cycle, cholesterol metabolism, and inflammation was determined by qRT-PCR. Reduced light exposure
alleviated vasculopathy, gliosis and the expression of IL-1 and TNF-α in the retina with increased perivascular
Aqp4 expression. The expression of genes involved in visual cycle and cholesterol metabolism was significantly
up-regulated in RPE in DM+6/18 vs. DM group. In the retina only the expression of APOE was significantly
higher in DM+6/18 vs. DM group. Reduced light exposure mitigates vascular changes and gliosis in DM via its
anti-inflammatory effect, increased retinal cholesterol turnover and perivascular Aqp4 expression.

AB  - Altered microRNAs (miRNAs1) and cytokines expression levels are associated with several pregnancy-induced complications. We evaluated the profile of circulating miRNAs (miR-17, miR-29a and miR-181a) and proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-6 and IL-17) in women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM2), as well as their potential use as GDM biomarkers. The case-control study included 65 pregnant women divided into 2 groups - GDM and control. Expression levels of miRNAs in plasma samples and cytokines mRNA isolated from peripheral blood buffy coat were analyzed by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR3). Significant miR-29a downregulation was found in GDM compared to the control group, and was even more significant after adjustments for covariates. miR-17 and miR-181a expression levels did not differ between the examined groups. Expression levels of IL-1β were significantly higher in GDM group compared to controls, while TNF-α, IL-6 and IL-17 did not show significant changes in expression between the two groups. As jugded from the ROC curve analysis, miR-29a and IL-1β had a significant capacity to discriminate between CG and GDM. Additionally, a positive correlation was established between IL-1β and TNF-α in the GDM group. GDM appeared to be associated with altered levels of miR-29a and IL-1β making them markers of this condition.
