Immunoreactive ET-1 in the vitreous humor and epiretinal membranes of patients with proliferative vitreoretinopathy.
PURPOSE Endothelin one (ET-1) is a vasomodulator peptide that plays a role on ocular blood flow, glial proliferation, and collagen matrix contraction by retinal pigmented epithelial (RPE) cells. Both glial and RPE cells have been involved in the formation of epiretinal membranes (ERMs). This investigation was conducted to determine whether ET-1 may be associated with ERMs, either idiopathic (IE...
متن کاملHepatocyte growth factor in vitreous and serum from patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
BACKGROUND Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) is an endothelium specific growth factor that has been implicated in angiogenesis, a crucial event for the development of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). The aim of the study is to determine the intravitreous concentrations of HGF in diabetic patients with PDR, and to investigate whether its serum levels could contribute to its intravitreous c...
متن کاملMonocyte chemotactic protein-1 levels in the vitreous of patients with proliferative vitreoretinopathy.
PURPOSE To assess the potential role of monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) in the pathogenesis of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) and to investigate its possible interaction with the macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF). METHODS We assayed MCP-1 and MIF levels in the vitreous samples of 85 consecutive patients with PVR (29 eyes), rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD; 22 ey...
متن کاملOsteopontin expression in vitreous and proliferative retinal membranes of patients with proliferative vitreous retinopathy.
AIM To analyze osteopontin (OPN) expression in vitreous and proliferative retinal membranes of patients with proliferative vitreous retinopathy (PVR). METHODS A total of 54 vitreous fluid samples were obtained between 2009 and 2010, which contained 45 with PVR (group A) and 9 without PVR (group B). Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was applied to quantify the OPN concentrations in vitreous fl...
متن کاملA distinct serum protein pattern in patients with paranoid schizophrenia
Introduction: Schizophrenia is a chronic mental illness, whose aetiology is still unclear; therefore, information about differences in serum protein patterns may improve the understanding of the pathophysiology of schizophrenia. The goal of this study was to use the proteomic approach to identify altered protein levels in the serum samples from patients with schizophrenia. Methods: Blood wa...
