PATTERN DYSTROPHY OF THE RETINAL PIGMENT EPITHELIUM

Retina, 1990
The authors describe a family in which one member had pattern dystrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium. The proband also had neovascular membranes which resulted in decreased visual acuity. Two other family members had abnormal electro-oculographic findings, but a clinical normal-appearing fundus that could represent an early stage of the disease ...

Genesis of the frog retinal pigment epithelium

Developmental Brain Research, 1996
To examine cell generation in the frog retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), representative developmental stages from tail-bud to adulthood received a single injection of [3H]thymidine. Animals were killed either 24 h or several weeks later; eyes were sectioned and processed by standard autoradiographic procedures and viewed by epi-polarised illumination ...

The Retinal Pigment Epithelium

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1968
A quantitative analysis of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) was accomplished by examining ten eyes obtained postmortem from eight individuals between the ages of four months of gestation and 96 years. The RPE was found to consist of a dynamic population of cells which change in number and dimensions as a function of age and location in the eye. The

The Retinal Pigment Epithelium

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1982
The Retinal Pigmented Epithelium edited by Zinn and Marmor is well organized, clearly written, and beautifully illustrated. This scholarly work contains 26 chapters written by distinguished scientists and clinicians. Many have devoted a substantial portion of their careers to the study of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE).

Pattern dystrophies of the retinal pigment epithelium

Acta Ophthalmologica Scandinavica, 1996
ABSTRACT Pattern dystrophies of the retinal pigment epithelium are infrequent fundus abnormalities arranged in various patterns of dots, lines and branches. The basic lesion appears to be yellow deposits of abnormal lipofuscin accumulated within degenerated retinal pigment epithelium cells.

RETINAL PIGMENT EPITHELIAL DETACHMENTS DEVOID OF RETINAL PIGMENT EPITHELIUM

RETINAL Cases & Brief Reports
Purpose: To describe two patients with chronic central serous chorioretinopathy showing what appeared to be retinal pigment epithelium detachments lacking imaging findings consistent with retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) over the elevation.

The retinal pigment epithelium in clinical echography

Acta Ophthalmologica, 1992
Abstract The resolution of the Triscan (Biophysic Medical) and the Cooper‐Alcon 2000 equipments proved sufficient for depicting three separate curvilinear echostructures from the back of the eye. The anatomical counterparts are the inner limiting membrane of the retina, the pigment epithelium, and the inner surface of the sclera.

Lipoidal Degeneration of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1981
Vacuolation of the retinal pigment epithelium in the foveomacular region of aging rhesus monkey eyes was re-examined with the eyes initially fixed in osmium tetroxide to retain the alcohol-soluble lipid. All vacuoles were found to be completely occupied by lipid material. Similar cells were positive to oil red O.

The Retinal Pigment Epithelium in Visual Function

Physiological Reviews, 2005
Located between vessels of the choriocapillaris and light-sensitive outer segments of the photoreceptors, the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) closely interacts with photoreceptors in the maintenance of visual function. Increasing knowledge of the multiple functions performed by the RPE improved the understanding of many diseases leading to blindness ...
