ABSTRACT
ABSTRACT

Purpose:

This study aimed to determine the effect of serum G receptor-mediated protein-1 levels on the development of retinopathy in patients with diabetes in comparison with healthy individuals.

Methods:

The study enrolled patients with diabetic retinopathy (Group 1), patients without diabetic retinopathy (Group 2), and healthy individuals (Group 3). Levels of serum progesterone, serum G receptor-mediated protein-1, estradiol, oxidant/antioxidants, and thyroid-releasing hormones were analyzed and compared among the groups. Post-hoc analysis was performed to compare the subgroups in which significant differences were found.

Results:

Groups 1, 2, and 3 each included 40 patients. A significant difference was found among all groups in terms of serum G receptor-mediated protein-1, oxidant/antioxidant, and estradiol levels (p<0.01), but no significant difference was found in terms of thyroid-releasing hormone or progesterone (p=0.496, p=0.220, respectively). In the post-hoc analysis of the groups with significant differences, another significant difference was found among all groups for serum G receptor-mediated protein-1 and oxidant/antioxidant levels (p<0.05). Serum G receptor-mediated protein-1 and oxidant levels were positively correlated, whereas serum G receptor-mediated protein-1 and antioxidant levels were negatively correlated (r=0.622/p<0.01, r=0.453/p<0.01, r=0.460/p<0.01, respectively). The multiple regression analysis showed that increased levels of serum G receptor-mediated protein-1 may help prevent diabetic retinopathy.

Conclusions:

Serum G receptor-mediated protein-1 levels, which were the highest in the diabetic retinopathy Group, increased as the oxidant/antioxidant balance changed in favor of oxidative stress. This appears to be a defense mechanism for preventing neuronal damage.
RESUMO
RESUMO

Objetivo:

Esta pesquisa buscou determinar o im­pacto dos níveis de proteína G sérica no desenvolvimento da retinopatia em pacientes diabéticos, comparando-os a indivíduos saudáveis.

Métodos:

Foram incluídos, no estudo, 40 pacientes com retinopatia diabética (Grupo 1), 40 pacientes sem retinopatia diabética (Grupo 2) e 40 indivíduos saudáveis (Grupo 3). Os níveis hormonais de progesterona sérica, de proteína G sérica, estradiol, oxidante/antioxidante e hormônio liberado pela tireoide foram analisados e comparados. A análise post hoc foi realizada para comparar os subgrupos nos quais diferenças estatisticamente significativas foram encontradas.

Resultados:

Uma diferença significativa foi encontrada entre todos os grupos em termos de proteína G sérica, oxidante/antioxidante e níveis de estradiol (p<0.01), mas nenhuma diferença significativa foi encontrada em termos de hormônio liberado pela tireoide ou progesterona (p=0,496, p=0,220, respectivamente). Na análise post hoc dos grupos com diferenças estatisticamente significativas, outra diferença significativa foi encontrada entre todos os grupos para proteína G sérica e níveis oxidantes/antioxidantes (p<0,05). Os níveis de proteína G sérica e os níveis de oxidante foram positivamente correlacionados, enquanto os níveis de proteína G sérica e os níveis de antioxidantes foram negativamente correlacio­nados (r=0,622/p<0,01, r=0,453/p<0,01, r=0,460/p<0,01, respectivamente). A análise de regressão múltipla mos­trou que o aumento da proteína G sérica pode ajudar a prevenir a retinopatia diabética.

Conclusões:

Os níveis de proteína G sérica que eram mais altos no grupo de retinopatia diabética, aumentaram à medida que o equilíbrio oxidante/antioxidante mudou em favor do estresse oxidativo. Este parece ser um mecanismo de defesa para prevenir danos neuronais.
