Abstract:

Intraperitoneal injections of exogenous melatonin during the development of the retinal vascular system in experimental rats has been shown in a number of experimental studies on the model of EROP to prevent the appearance of histological signs of the development of experimental retinopathy of prematurity (EROP), stabilize the blood-retinal barrier and have a pronounced antioxidant effect, but pathogenetic basis for these phenomena hasn’t been studied.

PURPOSE

To study the influence mechanism of melatonin and its analogues on the development of EROP at the preclinical stage of the pathological process to substantiate new approaches to prevention of ROP.

MATERIAL AND METHODS

The study included 42 Wistar rat pups (84 eyes) divided into 6 groups: control group, experimental group (rat pups with EROP), experimental groups who underwent injections of melatonin and its analogues K-148, AL-3, K-096. The pups were euthanized on day 7 (4—5 pups from each group at each study period), binocular enucleation was performed, and the content of hypoxia-induced factor1α (HIF-1α) and VEGF-A was determined in retinal samples.

RESULTS

The intraperitoneal injections of melatonin and its analogs led to a significant decrease in the level of HIF-1α and VEGF-A in the retina of the rat pups of the experimental group until the beginning of pathological vasoproliferation.

CONCLUSION

Melatonin and its analogues are able to prevent the development of EROP by reducing the level of angiogenic factors in the retina of rat pups at the stage of existing avascular zones, which allows for them to be considered as a new promising approach to preventing the development of ROP.
