Bruch’s membrane pathology: A mechanistic perspective
European Journal of Ophthalmology, 2020Bruch’s membrane, an extracellular matrix located between the retinal pigment epithelium and the choroid, plays a vital role as structural and functional support to the retinal pigment epithelium. Dysfunction of Bruch’s membrane in both age-related macular degeneration and other ocular diseases is caused mostly by extracellular matrix degeneration ...

The Ultrastructure of Bruch's Membrane
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1964The initial paper in this series described the fine structure of Bruch's membrane in the human, monkey, rabbit, rat, and guinea pig. 1 Bruch's membrane in animals possessing a tapetum—the cat, dog, and cow—were also studied and will be described in this paper.

Choroidal supply and Bruch's membrane in the eel
Experimental Eye Research, 1982Abstract Bruch's membrane may be elaborated by the RPE or derive from the choroid. As it has been claimed that in the eel there is no choroidal supply, the authors have studied Bruch's membrane in this species. Surprisingly they observed a choroidal supply in the eel with a special relationship between uveal melanophores and the vessel-wall. Although

BRUCH MEMBRANE AND THE MECHANISM OF MYOPIZATION
Retina, 2017Background: The process of emmetropization is the adjustment of the length of the optical axis to the given optical properties of the cornea and lens after the end of the second year of life. Since its underlying mechanisms have not been fully explored yet, we reviewed findings available in the literature to ...

Ultrastructure of Bruch's Membrane After Krypton Laser Photocoagulation
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1986Previous observations on rats suggested that subretinal neovascularization does not require a prior break in Bruch's membrane (BM). We verified this observation by using scanning electron microscopy to examine large expanses of BM that became exposed following ophthalmoscopically white krypton laser burns.

Demonstration of microfibrils in Bruch's membrane of the eye
Tissue and Cell, 1984The cationic dyes ruthenium red and alcian blue were used to visualize a population of microfibrils in Bruch's membrane, a compound basement membrane located in the uveal tract of the eye between the retinal pigment epithelium and choriocapillaris. Microfibrils were tubular structures, 10-12 nm in diameter, that showed a characteristic beaded pattern ...

Myopic macular Bruch's membrane defects
Acta Ophthalmologica, 2022AbstractPurpose: To examine peculiarities of macular Bruch's membrane defects (BMD) in axially elongated eyes.Methods: Using light microscopy, enucleated human globes were histomorphometrically.Results: The study included 247 eyes (axial length: 20.0–37.0 mm).

Bruch’s membrane has been the subject of extensive investigation, particularly as to its structure because of its importance in the pathogenesis of macular degenerations. WOLFRUM (1908) described the collagenous layer and the elastica of Bruch’s membrane as well as the lamina vitrea as a glassy membrane.

Semipermeable parylene membrane as an artificial Bruch's membrane
2011 16th International Solid-State Sensors, Actuators and Microsystems Conference, 2011This paper investigates the feasibility of a mesh-supported submicron-thick semipermeable parylene-C membrane as an artificial Bruch's membrane for the treatment of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). First, the permeabilities of parylene-C membranes with different thickness were measured and the results showed that as-deposited 0.30µm-thick ...

Changes in Bruch’s membrane and related structures with age
Progress in Retinal and Eye Research, 1999Age-related macular disease is a major and growing public health burden in developed Caucasian societies, accounting for about 50% of blind registration. Evidence exists that this is an emerging problem in Eastern Asia, although the phenotype appears to differ from that seen in Western society. It is likely that several genes are involved, and that the
