Serum neuron‐specific enolase is elevated as a novel indicator of diabetic retinopathy including macular oedema

Abstract: Serum neuron-specific enolase is elevated in and indicative of diabetic retinopathy. Neuron-specific enolase may be a potential biomarker of diabetic retinopathy. Future prospective studies are warranted to clarify the relationship.

“…The mechanisms underlying brain injury in experimental models include: disruption of BBB; alteration of insulin transporter and decrease in insulin receptors, which are expressed in discrete neuronal populations in the CNS; reduction in the uptake of glucose into the neurons; impairment of energy metabolism; and impairment of the capacity of the brain to generate the connections vital to memory and learning (37). Other investigators reported raised concentrations of NSE in diabetic patients with and without overt neurologic complications (38). It is well-known that T1DM has long-term complications affecting cognitive functions (39).…”

“…Consequently, several pathologies with distinct etiologies reported disturbed expression and/or activity of this enzyme. For instance, altered levels of ENO-1 has been demonstrated in Alzheimer’s disease (Castegna et al, 2002; Butterfield and Lange, 2009; Owen et al, 2009), rheumatoid arthritis (Kinloch et al, 2005; Montes et al, 2011), systemic sclerosis (Terrier et al, 2010; Mehra et al, 2013), type 2 diabetes (Li et al, 2013, 2015), systemic lupus erythematosus (Hawro et al, 2015; Li et al, 2018), hepatic fibrosis (Peng et al, 2013; Zhang et al, 2013), and fungal and bacterial infections (Bergmann et al, 2013; Funk et al, 2016; Ji et al, 2016). In addition, ENO-1 has been found to be overexpressed in more than 20 types of human cancer (Altenberg and Greulich, 2004).…”

“…Neuron-specific enolase (NSE), a glycolytic enzyme, is located in the neurons and neuroendocrine cells, its physiological role is to regulate the growth and development of nerve cells. 4 Interestingly, researchers found high levels of NSE in the serum of DR patients, and the levels of NSE were closely related to the severity of DR. 5 Consistent with this, Asadova and his colleagues reported that compared with the control group, NSE was significantly increased in the serum and vitreous of patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). 6 However, the cause of elevated serum NSE levels in DR patients remains unknown.…”
