Diabetic retinopathy resists arrest of its progression after reestablishment of good glycemic control that has followed a profound period of poor glycemic control. This study is to elucidate the role of inflammation in the resistance of retinopathy to arrest after termination of hyperglycemia. Streptozotocin-diabetic rats were maintained either in poor glycemic control (PC, glycated hemoglobin, GHb>11%) or in good glycemic control (GC, GHb<7%) for 12 months, or allowed to be in PC for six months followed by GC for six additional months. At 12 months, retina was analyzed for pro-inflammatory mediators. Twelve months of PC increased retinal interleukin-1β (IL-1β) mRNA by 2-fold and its protein expressions by 25% compared to the values obtained from normal rat retina. Tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) was elevated approximately 3 fold (both mRNA and protein), and the receptors for IL-1β and TNF-α were increased by 40% each. The concentrations of intercellular cell adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) were elevated by 40% and 150% respectively, and iNOS transcripts by six fold. Six months of GC that followed six months of PC failed to reverse the elevations in IL-1β, TNFR1 and ICAM-1; and had some beneficial effects on TNF-α, iNOS and VCAM-I, but these mediators remained significantly elevated. However, GC group showed no significant changes in the retinal pro-inflammatory mediators compared to the normal rats. Failure to reverse retinal inflammatory mediators supports their important role in the resistance of retinopathy to arrest after cessation of hyperglycemia.
