Distinguishing wet from dry age-related macular degeneration using three-dimensional computer-automated threshold Amsler grid testing [PDF]
Background/aims: With the increased efficacy of current therapy for wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD), better ways to detect wet AMD are needed.

Sorafenib prevents human retinal pigment epithelium cells from light-induced overexpression of VEGF, PDGF and PlGF [PDF]
Background Cumulative light exposure is significantly associated with progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Inhibition of vascular endothelial growth factor is the main target of current antiangiogenic treatment strategies in AMD ...

Gene Transfer for Neovascular Age-Related Macular Degeneration [PDF]
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a complex disease that has two phases: a degenerative phase often referred to as nonneovascular AMD (non-NVAMD) or dry AMD and a phase dominated by growth of new blood vessels in the subretinal space, referred to as NVAMD or wet AMD.

Aflibercept for neovascular age-related macular degeneration
Central vision loss caused by age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness among the elderly in developed countries. Neovascular AMD is characterized by choroidal neovascularization (CNV). Growth of new blood vessels in patients with neovascular AMD is driven by a complex process that involves a signal protein called ...

New Therapies of Neovascular AMD beyond Anti-VEGF Injections
Neovascular age-related macular degeneration is a leading cause of vision loss among the aging population. The current standard of care to treat neovascular age-related macular degeneration is inhibiting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) through ...

Therapeutic approaches with intravitreal injections in geographic atrophy secondary to age-related macular degeneration: current drugs and potential molecules [PDF]
The present review focuses on recent clinical trials that analyze the efficacy of intravitreal therapeutic agents for the treatment of dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD), such as neuroprotective drugs, and complement inhibitors, also called ...

Interventions for neovascular age-related macular degeneration
Reason for withdrawal from publication In the light of current guidelines on macular degeneration being developed by NICE, CEV considers that this overview will not provide enough additional information to be a useful piece of work at this stage.

PD‐L1 limits neuroinflammation in neovascular AMD by modulating microglial activation. Its deficiency exacerbates vascular leakage and choroidal neovascularization (CNV) via ERK signaling, while enhancing PD‐L1 reduces inflammation and neovascularization. Targeting PD‐L1 may offer a novel immunomodulatory strategy for NVAMD.
