摘要

Uveitis comprises an extensive array of intraocular inflammatory diseases and often results in irreversible visual loss. Experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) is an animal model used to study human uveitis. Both innate and adaptive immune responses are known to mediate retinal damage in EAU. The innate immune response occurs first with activation of toll-like receptors which upregulate inflammatory cytokines, leading to oxidative stress; subsequently, the adaptive immune response results in inflammatory cytokine upregulation and mitochondrial oxidative stress. In early EAU, mitochondrial DNA is damaged before inflammatory cellular infiltration and alters mitochondrial protein levels and the functions of mitochondria in AU. Our recent study confirms the importance of TLR4 in the generation of inflammatory cytokines, initiation of oxidative DNA damage, and induction of mitochondrial oxidative stress. Like EAU, sympathetic ophthalmia also results in photoreceptor mitochondrial oxidative damage. Agents that prevent mitochondrial oxidative stress and photoreceptor apoptosis may help prevent retinal damage and preserve vision in uveitis.
