Melatonin and Abeta, Macular Degeneration and Alzheimers Disease: Same Disease, Different Outcomes?
Aging is the common denominator and the highest risk factor for macular degeneration and Alzheimers Disease (AD). Important pathological hallmarks common to both diseases are the presence of amyloid β (Aβ) in the senile plaques of the AD brain and in the drusen of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) patients, oxidative stress, and apoptotic cell death. Data suggest that a common pathogenic m...
متن کاملSenile disciform macular degeneration: features indicating suitability for photocoagulation.
During a 1-year period 398 new patients were seen with disciform macular degeneration (530 eyes). The lesions were studied retrospectively, and those in which the neovascular tissue did not underlie the fovea, and therefore were treatable, were identified. The following conclusions were drawn: (1) Treatment is possible in most patients with good acuity and few with poor acuity. (2) Treatment is...
متن کاملThe Study of Serum Asymmetric Dimethylarginine Concentrations in the Different Paraoxonase Phenotypes of Exudative Age-related Macular Degeneration Disease
Background and Aims: Age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) is a degenerative retinal disorder that causes progressive loss of central vision in older adults. The study aimed to determine the effect of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) as oxidizing metabolite and paraoxonase (PON1) activity within its phenotypes as an antioxidant agent in the development of such multifactorial disease. Mater...
متن کاملAge-related macular degeneration and Alzheimer disease.
This review highlight the similarities in the pathogenesis between Alzheimer disease and age-related macular degeneration. All studies published between 1990 and 2014 were reviewed to identify the common pathological pathways. Alzheimer disease and age-related macular degeneration share common features such as vitronectin and amyloid-β accumulation, increased oxidative stress, and apolipoprotei...
متن کاملSenile macular degeneration and geographic atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium.
The case is reported of a man who had oval areas of atrophy of the retinal pigment epithelium in paracentral areas which previously had heavy concentrations of drusen OU. This supports the suggestion by others that atrophy of the RPE in senile macular disease may in some cases occur in the absence of previous serous detachment of the RPE.
