Choroidal Neovascularization: Mechanisms of Endothelial Dysfunction

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2019
Many conditions affecting the heart, brain, and even the eyes have their origins in blood vessel pathology, underscoring the role of vascular regulation.

Choroidal juxtapapillary neovascularization regression in multiple evanescent white dot syndrome by optical coherence tomography angiography: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2019
Background Multiple evanescent white dot syndrome most often resolves spontaneously without complications; however, choroidal neovascularization can sometimes occur.

Automatic Segmentation and Visualization of Choroid in OCT with Knowledge Infused Deep Learning [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The choroid provides oxygen and nourishment to the outer retina thus is related to the pathology of various ocular diseases. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) is advantageous in visualizing and quantifying the choroid in vivo. (1) The lower boundary of the choroid (choroid-sclera interface) in OCT is fuzzy, which makes the automatic segmentation ...

Waveform analysis of human retinal and choroidal blood flow with laser Doppler holography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Laser Doppler holography was introduced as a full-field imaging technique to measure blood flow in the retina and choroid with an as yet unrivaled temporal resolution. We here investigate separating the different contributions to the power Doppler signal in order to isolate the flow waveforms of vessels in the posterior pole of the human eye.

Progression of subclinical choroidal neovascularization in age-related macular degeneration

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Purpose To use optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) to study longitudinal subclinical choroidal neovascularization (CNV) changes and their correlation with progression to exudation in age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

Ferrochelatase is a therapeutic target for ocular neovascularization

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2017
Ocular neovascularization underlies major blinding eye diseases such as “wet” age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). Despite the successes of treatments targeting the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) pathway, resistant and refractory patient ...

Multi-Scale Convolutional Neural Network for Automated AMD Classification using Retinal OCT Images [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of blindness in developed countries, especially in people over 60 years of age. The workload of specialists and the healthcare system in this field has increased in recent years mainly due to the prevalence of population aging worldwide and the chronic nature of AMD. Recent developments in

The NLRP3 inflammasome pathway contributes to chronic inflammation in experimental autoimmune uveitis

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The present study investigates the role of the NLRP3 inflammasome in the chronicity of ocular inflammation in uveitis using the experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) model. Whole eyes collected from EAU mice, 12 weeks post induction, were sectioned and subjected to immunohistochemistry. The confocal images from these sections were then assessed for the

Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonism limits experimental choroidal neovascularization and structural changes associated with neovascular age-related macular degeneration

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is a major cause of visual impairment in patients suffering from wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD), particularly when refractory to intraocular anti-VEGF injections.

Diverse roles of macrophages in intraocular neovascular diseases: a review [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Ophthalmology, 2017
Macrophages are involved in angiogenesis, and might also contribute to the pathogenesis of intraocular neovascular diseases. Recent studies indicated that macrophages exert different functions in the process of intraocular neovascularization, and the ...
