Alteration of timing of secretion of vascular endothelial growth factors is responsible for progression of diabetic retinopathy.

Diabetic retinopathy is one of the most common complications in diabetes mellitus due to persistent hyperglycaemia. Various biochemical mechanisms have been suggested to cause this complication. The authors' present study which included 100 patients of type-2 diabetes mellitus with different stages of diabetic retinopathy and without retinopathy shows that initiation of diabetic retinopathy is associated with increased anaerobic glycolysis and accelerated oxidative stress. Progression of this complication is guided by increased secretion of vascular endothelial growth factors. It is our assumption that increased secretion of vascular endothelial growth factors in early part of this disease e.g. before occurrence of morphological abnormality may modify this complication.
