Objective To explore the effect of microRNA-374b-5p on proliferative diabetic retinopathy. Methods Based on retrospective study, the peripheral blood of patients with diabetic non-proliferative (NPDR, n=30) and proliferative (PDR, n=32) retinopathy was collected, and the contents of microRNA-374b-5p and VEGF were determined, correlation analysis was performed at the same time, miR-374b-5p was introduced into endothelial cells to detect the expression of VEGF and the changes of endothelial cells' angiogenesis ability. Results Compared with NPDR group (7.993±6.194), the expression of serum miR-374b-5p in PDR group (4.308±3.313) decreased significantly (P<0.05). Compared with the content of VEGF in NPDR group [ (35.50±21.49)pg/ml], the content of VEGF in PDR group [((74.64±26.57)pg /ml] was significantly higher, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There was a negative correlation between miR-374b-5p and VEGF (R2=0.088, P=0.019). The level of miR-374b-5p in serum of PDR patients decreased and VEGF increased, which was negatively correlated with each other, while miR-374b-5p could inhibit the expression of VEGF mRNA and protein, and inhibit the angiogenesis ability of endothelial cells. Conclusions The decline of miR-374b-5 in the progress of PDR leads to a decline in its ability to resist the increase of VEGF expression, and induces an increase in endothelial cell angiogenesis, thereby promoting the occurrence and development of PDR.
