Research status of clinicopathologic studies of polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy
Polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) is the main subtype of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD)in China. PCV differs from typical neovascular AMD in terms of epidemiology, clinical presentation, imaging features, and natural disease ...

Dapagliflozin prevents methylglyoxal‐induced retinal cell death in ARPE‐19 cells
Diabetic macular oedema is a diabetes complication of the eye, which may lead to permanent blindness. ARPE‐19 are human retinal cells used to study retinal diseases and potential therapeutics. Methylglyoxal is a compound increased in uncontrolled diabetes due to elevated blood glucose.

Decoding the Factor H‐Related Proteins: Gatekeepers of Complement Dysregulation in AMD
This review will explore the role of the factor H‐related (FHR) proteins in age‐related macular degeneration (AMD), their accumulation in the outer blood/retinal barrier, and how they may contribute to barrier dysfunction and inflammation. ABSTRACT Age‐related macular degeneration (AMD) is the third most common form of blindness in the Western world ...

Pilot satellitome analysis of the model plant, Physcomitrella patens, revealed a transcribed and high-copy IGS related tandem repeat [PDF]
Satellite DNA (satDNA) constitutes a substantial part of eukaryotic genomes. In the last decade, it has been shown that satDNA is not an inert part of the genome and its function extends beyond the nuclear membrane.

Lipid peroxidation from oxidative stress is considered a major contributor to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). The retina is abundant with circulating low-density lipoproteins (LDL), which are taken up by LDL receptor (LDLR) in the RPE and Müller ...

Shifting From Systemic to Precision‐Targeted Complement Therapies: Opportunities and Hurdles
Complement therapeutics have expanded considerably, but systemic inhibitors remain limited by infection risks, breakthrough events, and loss of physiological functions. Emerging targeted approaches aim for organ‐, tissue‐, or cell‐specific modulation of complement activity, potentially offering greater precision while reducing treatment burden and ...

LES STRIES ANGIOÏDES : A PROPOS DE 10 CAS
Les stries angioïdes correspondent à des lignes de rupture localisées de la membrane de Bruch, habituellement asymptomatiques, ces stries peuvent se néovasculariser et entraîner un syndrome maculaire avec baisse marquée de l’acuité visuelle.

Bruch’s Membrane Opening Minimum Rim Width Measurement with SD-OCT: A Method to Correct for the Opening Size of Bruch’s Membrane [PDF]
A precise evaluation of the retinal nerve fiber layer thickness (RNFLT) is key for diagnosing and monitoring glaucoma. The Bruch’s membrane opening minimum rim width (BMO-MRW) has been proposed as a reproducible assessment of the optic nerve. The BMO-MRW measures the minimum distance from the BMO to the internal limiting membrane.
