Subretinal Glial Membranes in Eyes With Geographic Atrophy
Purpose Müller cells create the external limiting membrane (ELM) by forming junctions with photoreceptor cells. This study evaluated the relationship between focal photoreceptors and RPE loss in geographic atrophy (GA) and Müller cell extension into the subretinal space. Methods Human donor eyes with no retinal disease or geographic atrophy (GA) were fixed and the eye cups imaged. The retinal...
متن کاملAuthor Response: The Evolution of the Plateau, an Optical Coherence Tomography Signature Seen in Geographic Atrophy
We would like to thank our colleagues, Marchese and Querques, for initiating a discussion regarding our recent publication, ‘‘The Evolution of the Plateau, an Optical Coherence Tomography Signature Seen in Geographic Atrophy.’’ In our study, we used longitudinal eye-tracked optical coherence tomography (OCT) to explore the origin of the ‘‘wedge-shaped subretinal hyporeflectivity’’ described by ...
متن کاملCasimir densities for wedge-shaped boundaries
The vacuum expectation values of the field squared and the energy-momentum tensor are investigated for a scalar field with Dirichlet boundary conditions and for the electromagnetic field inside a wedge with a coaxial cylindrical boundary. In the case of the electromagnetic field perfectly conducting boundary conditions are assumed on the bounding surfaces. By using the Abel-Plana-type formula f...
متن کاملGeographic atrophy and cardiovascular disease.
We read with great interest the article by Fleckenstein et al. on the association of the diffuse-trickling (DT) phenotype of geographic atrophy (GA) with cardiovascular disease (CVD), with possible significance for choroidal vascular compromise. We wish to make the readership of IOVS aware that our group has published several relevant observations about the relation among reticular macular dise...
متن کاملSubretinal Transplantation of Human Embryonic Stem Cell Derived-retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells into a Large-eyed Model of Geographic Atrophy.
Geographic atrophy (GA), the late stage of dry age-related macular degeneration is characterized by loss of the retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) layer, which leads to subsequent degeneration of vital retinal structures (e.g., photoreceptors) causing severe vision impairment. Similarly, RPE-loss and decrease in visual acuity is seen in long-term follow up of patients with advanced wet age-relate...
