Investigating the effects of complement loci CFH and ARMS2/HTRA1 on Alzheimer Disease
Abstract Background Late‐onset Alzheimer Disease (LOAD) shares multiple pathologic features and genetic risk factors with Age‐related Macular Degeneration (AMD). Amyloid‐beta (Ab) forms amyloid plaques in the brain and aggregates with other proteins and lipids to form drusen deposits in the retina of AMD eyes.

Apolipoprotein Localization in Isolated Drusen and Retinal Apolipoprotein Gene Expression
To evaluate apolipoprotein (Apo) gene expression in native human retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and neurosensory retina and to detect apolipoproteins within age-related, extramacular drusen.Drusen were isolated manually from 10 eyes of 10 donors (age range, 58-93 years) with grossly normal maculas that were preserved in 4% paraformaldehyde within 6 ...

Optic Disc Abnormalities – Diagnosis, Evolution and Influence on Visual Acuity
Congenital abnormalities of the optic disc are not so rare. The etiology for the most of them is unknown. Visual acuity of affected eye may be minimally or severely affected, depending on the extent of lesion. All of these conditions can be unilateral or
