Angiostatin inhibits pathological but not physiological retinal angiogenesis.
PURPOSE Antiangiogenic treatment is a promising new therapy for angiogenesis-dependent diseases. In the current study, the biologic effects on pathologic and physiological angiogenesis in the retina of angiostatin, a very potent angiogenesis inhibitor were determined. In addition, the effects of angiostatin on the growth and development of newborn mice were examined. METHODS Oxygen-induced re...
متن کاملLower Macular Pigment Optical Density in Foveal-Involved Glaucoma.
PURPOSE To evaluate the relationship between macular pigment optical density (MPOD) and structural parameters of the macula and optic nerve head in glaucomatous eyes. DESIGN A cross-sectional analysis of the baseline data collected during the Macular Pigment and Glaucoma Trial (ISRCTN registry number: 56985060). PARTICIPANTS Eighty-eight subjects (48 male, 40 female) with a diagnosis of ope...
متن کاملIs delayed foveal feedback critical for extra-foveal perception?
Recent neuroimaging evidence suggests that visual inputs arising beyond the fovea can be 'fed back' to foveal visual cortex to construct a new retinotopic representation. However, whether these representations are critical for extra-foveal perception remains unclear. Using transcranial magnetic stimulation we found that relatively late (350-400 msec) disruption of foveal retinotopic cortex impa...

متن کاملSuppressive and facilitatory spatial interactions in foveal vision: foveal crowding is simple contrast masking.
Spatial interactions are a critical and ubiquitous feature of spatial vision. These interactions may be inhibitory (reducing sensitivity as occurs in crowding) or facilitatory (enhancing sensitivity). In this work, we had four goals. 1. To test the hypothesis that foveal crowding depends on target size by measuring the extent of crowding for novel targets that were limited in their spatial freq...
