Abstract
In recent years, the prevalence of myopia has gradually increased, and it has become a significant global public health problem in the 21st century, posing a serious challenge to human eye health. Currently, it is confirmed that the development of myopia is attributed to the combined action of genes and environmental factors. Thus, elucidating the risk factors and pathogenesis of myopia is of great significance for the prevention and control of myopia. To elucidate the impact of gene-environment interaction on myopia, we used the Pubmed database to search for literature related to myopia. Search terms are as follows: myopia, genes, environmental factors, gene-environment interaction, and treatment. This paper reviews the effects of gene and environmental interaction on myopia.

Abstract
FGF10, as an FGFR2b-specific ligand, plays a crucial role during cell proliferation, multi-organ development, and tissue injury repair. The developmental importance of FGF10 has been emphasized by the identification of FGF10 abnormalities in human congenital disorders affecting different organs and systems. Single-nucleotide variants in FGF10 or FGF10-involving copy-number variant deletions have been reported in families with lacrimo-auriculo-dento-digital syndrome, aplasia of the lacrimal and salivary glands, or lethal lung developmental disorders. Abnormalities involving FGF10 have also been implicated in cleft lip and palate, myopia, or congenital heart disease. However, the exact developmental role of FGF10 and large phenotypic heterogeneity associated with FGF10 disruption remain incompletely understood. Here, we review human and animal studies and summarize the data on FGF10 mechanism of action, expression, multi-organ function, as well as its variants and their usefulness for clinicians and researchers.

[PMID: 34171364 DOI: 10.1016/j.mvr.2021.104213] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/13/2021] [Revised: 06/16/2021] [Accepted: 06/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION This study aimed to determine the role of the choroid in lens-induced myopia (LIM) in guinea pigs. METHODS Guinea pigs were randomly divided into two groups: a normal control (NC) group and a LIM group. Refraction and axial length (AL) were measured by streak retinoscopy and A-scan ultrasonography. The choroidal thickness (ChT), vessel density of the choriocapillaris (VDCC) and vessel density of the choroidal layer (VDCL) were assessed by Spectral-domain Optical Coherence Tomography Angiography (SD-OCT). In addition, the choroidal expression of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) enzymes at the mRNA and protein levels was analyzed by real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS In the LIM group, refraction and AL were increased significantly compared with those in the NC group at 2 weeks (refraction: LIM vs. NC, -4.23 ± 0.43 D vs. 2.20 ± 0.48 D; AL: LIM vs. NC, 8.36 ± 0.05 mm vs. 8.22 ± 0.03 mm) and 4 weeks (refraction: LIM vs. NC, -5.88 ± 0.49 D vs. 1.63 ± 0.41 D; AL: 8.57 ± 0.06 mm vs. 8.40 ± 0.04 mm). The ChT and VDCC were decreased significantly compared with those in the NC group at 2 weeks (ChT: LIM vs. NC, 60.92 ± 8.15 μm vs. 79.11 ± 7.47 μm; VDCC: LIM vs. NC, 23.43 ± 3.85% vs. 28.74 ± 4.11%) and 4 weeks (ChT: LIM vs. NC, 48.43 ± 6.85 μm vs. 76.38 ± 7.84 μm; VDCC: LIM vs. NC, 21.29 ± 2.17% vs. 27.64 ± 2.91%). The VDCL was also decreased compared with that in the NC group at 2 weeks and 4 weeks (NC vs. LIM, 24.87 ± 5.16% vs. 22.45 ± 3.26%; 23.37 ± 5.85% vs. 21.39 ± 2.62%; all P > 0.05). Moreover, the ChT was positively correlated with the VDCC and VDCL. The mRNA and protein expression of NOS enzymes (eNOS and nNOS) was increased. CONCLUSIONS During the development of myopia, the ChT, VDCC and VDCL were decreased, while NOS expression in the choroid was increased. The expression of NOS was negatively correlated with the ChT, VDCC and VDCL. NO may play an important role in regulating the choroid during myopia development.

Abstract
Purpose: Genetic association between the fibroblast growth factor 10 (FGF10) gene rs339501 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and high myopia remains inconsistent in different studies. This study aimed to investigate the association between FGF10 rs339501 and high myopia in a Han Chinese population.Methods: A total of 675 patients with high myopia (HM), including 246 extreme myopia (EM) patients, and 800 healthy subjects with normal vision from the Chinese Han population were selected as the study subjects. The SNP of FGF10 rs399501 was genotyped by TaqMan allele discrimination assay on the 7300 real-time polymorphism chain reaction system, and the relationship between genotype and allele frequency of FGF10 rs399501 and high myopia was analyzed.Results: In our study, there are statistically significant differences between high myopia patients and controls in the allele frequencies (OR = 1.268, 95%CI = 1.030 ~ 1.560, P = .025), but not in genotype distributions (χ2 = 5.673, P = .059) of rs399501 SNP in the FGF10 gene. In addition, a weak association was found in recessive model (GG vs. AG+AA: OR = 1.929, 95%CI = 1.004 ~ 3.708, P = .045), but not in dominant model (AG+GG vs. AA: OR = 1.239, 95%CI = 0.981 ~ 1.566, P = .072). Moreover, significant associations were also found between FGF10 rs339501 polymorphism and the risk of extreme myopia in all genetic models.Conclusion: Our results do support that the genetic variant of FGF10 rs339501 is associated with susceptibility of high myopia, especially extreme myopia in a Chinese Han population, and further exploration is needed for myopia in other populations.

Abstract
Peripheral nerve injury (PNI), one of the most common concerns following trauma, can result in a significant loss of sensory or motor function. Restoration of the injured nerves requires a complex cellular and molecular response to rebuild the functional axons so that they can accurately connect with their original targets. However, there is no optimized therapy for complete recovery after PNI. Supplementation with exogenous growth factors (GFs) is an emerging and versatile therapeutic strategy for promoting nerve regeneration and functional recovery. GFs activate the downstream targets of various signaling cascades through binding with their corresponding receptors to exert their multiple effects on neurorestoration and tissue regeneration. However, the simple administration of GFs is insufficient for reconstructing PNI due to their short half‑life and rapid deactivation in body fluids. To overcome these shortcomings, several nerve conduits derived from biological tissue or synthetic materials have been developed. Their good biocompatibility and biofunctionality made them a suitable vehicle for the delivery of multiple GFs to support peripheral nerve regeneration. After repairing nerve defects, the controlled release of GFs from the conduit structures is able to continuously improve axonal regeneration and functional outcome. Thus, therapies with growth factor (GF) delivery systems have received increasing attention in recent years. Here, we mainly review the therapeutic capacity of GFs and their incorporation into nerve guides for repairing PNI. In addition, the possible receptors and signaling mechanisms of the GF family exerting their biological effects are also emphasized.

Abstract
Myopia is one of the commonest eye pathologies that could affect 2.56 billion people by 2020. Today high myopia is a leading cause of blindness worldwide due to associated ocular illness. Nevertheless, the cellular bases for these diseases to develop are unclear in many areas. We conducted a prospective study of oxidative stress and growth factors in human myopic and non myopic eyes in an attempt to increase our understanding of the underlying physiopathological conditions to adequately early diagnose, prevent and treat the retina problem that derives from myopia. Aqueous humor samples were obtained from 41 patients being operated for cataracts in our hospital. Axial length, refractive status and complete ophthalmologic examination were recorded. The VEGF and HGF levels were determined by an ELISA kit. Total antioxidant capacity and total nitrites/nitrate levels were established with a lab kit. We show for the first time an increase in the total nitrite levels in high myopia. We also propose for the first time the concurrence of three factors: myopia, oxidative stress, and oxidative stress together with growth factors in the same group of patients. In this way, it would not be accurate to envision high myopia as a type of normal myopia, but one with more diopters or longer axial length.
