Vitamin A Derivatives as Treatment Options for Retinal Degenerative Diseases
The visual cycle is a sequential enzymatic reaction for vitamin A, all-trans-retinol, occurring in the outer layer of the human retina and is essential for the maintenance of vision. The central source of retinol is derived from dietary intake of both retinol and pro-vitamin A carotenoids.

متن کاملChondroprotective drugs in degenerative joint diseases.
Catabolic cytokine and anabolic growth factor pathways control destruction and repair in osteoarthritis (OA). A unidirectional TNF-alpha/IL-1-driven cytokine cascade disturbs the homeostasis of the extracellular matrix of articular cartilage in OA. Although chondrocytes in OA cartilage overexpress anabolic insulin-like growth factor (IGF) and its specific receptor (IGFRI) autocrine TNF-alpha re...
متن کاملCharge - Based Transport and Drug Delivery into Cartilage for Localized Treatment of Degenerative Archives Joint Diseases
Traumatic joint injuries significantly increase synovial fluid levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines that can initiate cartilage degeneration leading to osteoarthritis (OA). Articular cartilage is a highly negatively charged, avascular tissue, which relies on synovial fluid convection and electro-diffusion to transport proteins and therapeutics to tissue chondrocytes. No OA drug has yet passed t...
