Ocular Vascular Endothelial Heterogeneity
Endothelial cells form the lining of the vasculature. Despite the continuity of this layer throughout the body, endothelial cells exhibit remarkable heterogeneity in structure, molecular composition and activity: between sites; and in response to different exposures. One important consequence of endothelial diversity is the localized nature of many vascular disorders. To date a limited number o...
متن کاملrole of vascular endothelial growth factors in ocular neovascular diseases
the most important progress in the field of retinal diseases during recent years might be the introduction of pharmacotherapy. age-related macular degeneration for instance was an irreversible disease leading to permanent anatomical and functional changes in the macula up to the previous decade; however, the use of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor agents (anti-vegfs) not only stops the p...
متن کاملAnti-vascular endothelial growth factor indications in ocular disease.
The purpose of this systemic review was to investigate the indications of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) in the treatment of ocular diseases. For this, a comprehensive literature research was performed exploring the current use of anti-VEGF in a variety of retinal or anterior segment diseases and highlighting the visual outcome for these patients. The anti-VEGF therapy is n...
متن کاملVascular endothelial growth factor biology: clinical implications for ocular treatments.
Decades of research on vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) have reached fruition with the recent development of intravitreal anti-VEGF treatments for exudative age-related macular degeneration. VEGF is a critical regulator of angiogenesis and vascular permeability with diverse roles, both pathological and physiological, during development and adulthood. The aim of this article is to revie...
