[Serum antiretinal antibodies (ARA) in patients with exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD)--preliminary findings].
BACKGROUND Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of blindness in the Western world. Despite the magnitude of this clinical problem, the pathogenesis of the disease remains still unclear. AIM To determine the tissue specificity and titer of antiretinal antibodies (ARA) in sera of patients with exudative AMD. MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty-six patients (92 eyes) 16 males and...
متن کاملRetinoid-binding proteins in cone-dominant retinas.
We identified and localized interphotoreceptor (or interstitial) retinoid-binding protein (IRBP) and cellular retinaldehyde-binding protein (CRALBP) in the cone-dominant retinas of diurnal squirrels. Western blots were prepared from sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gels (SDS-PAGE) from whole retina, and from retina proximal and distal to the photoreceptor nuclei. Blots were incubated with ...
متن کاملNeuronal migration and glial remodeling in degenerating retinas of aged rats and in nonneovascular AMD.
PURPOSE To demonstrate structural and immunocytochemical changes associated with light-induced degeneration in albino rat retinas and human AMD retinas. METHODS Retinas from Wistar rats aged 3, 6, or 10 months were examined by immunocytochemistry, with antibodies to neuronal and glial markers. Results were compared with human nonneovascular AMD retinas. RESULTS In aging rat retinas, many ph...
متن کاملPredictive Factors in OCT Analysis for Visual Outcome in Exudative AMD
Background. Reliable predictive factors for therapy outcome may enable treating physicians to counsel their patients more efficiently concerning probability of improvement or time point of discontinuation of a certain therapy. Methods. This is a retrospective analysis of 87 patients with exudative age-related macular degeneration who received three monthly intravitreal ranibizumab injections. V...
متن کاملIntravitreal Combination of Dexamethasone Sodium Phosphate and Bevacizumab in The Treatment of Exudative AMD
The purpose of this study is to investigate the efficacy and safety of intravitreal dexamethasone sodium phosphate (DSP) combined with bevacizumab for the treatment of neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD). In this non comparative case study, 30 eyes of 27 patients with CNV due to AMD received intravitreal DSP (0.2 mg) and bevacizumab (1.25 mg) during a 6-month PRN (pro re nata) do...
