The invention discloses application of siRNA of
silence Ier3
gene in preparation of
medicine for preventing or treating
meibomian gland dysfunction type dry eye, Ier3
gene expression is regulated and controlled through
RNA interference technology, and
meibomian gland dysfunction in
plateau environment is relieved. The invention discovers that the expression of the
early response gene Ier3 in hypoxia-induced
meibomian gland dysfunction is up-regulated for the first time, and designs and synthesizes three specific siRNA sequences. Experiments adopt a low-pressure
oxygen chamber to simulate an altitude of 5000 meters to construct a
plateau mouse model, intervention is performed through an
eye drop administration mode, and results show that Ier3 siRNA can significantly inhibit meibomian gland tissue Ier3 expression, prolong tear film rupture time and inhibit meibomian gland duct
cell proliferation. The invention provides a precise
treatment strategy based on the
RNA interference technology, has the characteristics of strong targeting property, high
gene silencing efficiency and small
side effect, and provides a new intervention target and
drug selection for the treatment of the
plateau environment related
meibomian gland dysfunction type dry eye.
