摘要
甲状腺相关眼病(TAO)患者眼眶脂肪组织的体积和细胞数量均增加,不但可直接导致眼眶压增高、眼球突出、视力损害,而且脂肪组织本身作为一种新的内分泌器官,可分泌多种脂肪细胞因子、生长因子及蛋白分子等,其中部分因子和蛋白分子参与了TAO的发生和发展,故我们应当高度重视眼眶脂肪组织在TAO中的重要作用,并开展相关研究。
Increasing orbital fatty tissue volume and fatty cell number in patients with thyroid associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) can induce high orbital pressure, eyeball protrusion and visual acuity damage. Orbital fatty tissue as a new endocrine organ can secrete various fatty cell factors, growth factors and protein molecules. Some factors and protein molecules participate in the occurrence and progress of TAO. Therefore, we should pay high attention to study the important role of orbital fatty tissue in TAO.
