Selenium (Se) intake or selenoprotein overexpression can cause abnormal glucose metabolism and increase the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The purpose of this study is to observe whether glycolysis bypass in the de novo serine synthesis pathway (SSP) is activated under high-Se stress in vitro. Initially, HCT-116, L02, HepG2, and differentiated C2C12 cells were exposed to five selenomethionine (SeMet) concentrations (0.

VEGF is not only the most potent angiogenic factor, but also an important neurotrophic factor. In this study, vitreous expression of six neurotrophic factors were examined in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) patients with prior anti-VEGF therapy (n = 48) or without anti-VEGF treatment (n = 41) via ELISA. Potential source, variation and impact of these factors were further investigated in a mouse model of oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR), as well as primary Müller cells and 661W photoreceptor cell line under hypoxic condition.
