Abstract

The methylation of DNA is a prevalent epigenetic modification that plays a crucial role in the pathological progression of ocular diseases. DNA methylation can regulate gene expression, thereby affecting cell function and signal transduction. Ophthalmic diseases are a kind of complex diseases, and their pathogenesis involves many factors such as genetic, environmental and individual differences. In addition, inflammation, oxidative stress and lipid metabolism, which abnormal DNA methylation is closely related to, are also considered to be major factors in eye diseases. The current understanding of DNA methylation in eye diseases is becoming more complex and comprehensive. In addition to the simple suppression of gene expression by hypermethylation, factors such as hypomethylation or demethylation, DNA methylation in non-promoter regions, interactions with other epigenetic modifications, and dynamic changes in DNA methylation must also be considered. Interestingly, although some genes are at abnormal methylation levels, their expression is not significantly changed, which indirectly reflects the complexity of gene regulation. This review aims to summarize and compare some relevant studies, and provide with new ideas and methods for the prevention and treatment of different eye diseases, such as glaucoma, retinoblastoma, and diabetic retinopathy.

DNA甲基化修饰在眼部疾病中的新进展。
DNA甲基化是一种普遍的表观遗传修饰,在眼部疾病的病理进展中起着至关重要的作用。DNA甲基化可以调控基因表达,从而影响细胞功能和信号转导。眼病是一种复杂的疾病,其发病机制涉及遗传、环境和个体差异等诸多因素。此外,与DNA甲基化异常密切相关的炎症、氧化应激和脂质代谢也被认为是眼部疾病的主要因素。目前对眼病中DNA甲基化的认识正变得更加复杂和全面。除了高甲基化对基因表达的简单抑制外,还必须考虑诸如低甲基化或去甲基化、非启动子区域的DNA甲基化、与其他表观遗传修饰的相互作用以及DNA甲基化的动态变化等因素。有趣的是,尽管一些基因甲基化水平异常,但其表达并未发生显著变化,这间接反映了基因调控的复杂性。本文旨在对相关研究进行总结和比较,为青光眼、视网膜母细胞瘤、糖尿病视网膜病变等不同眼病的防治提供新的思路和方法。
