Cell cycle regulation by bevacizumab in ARPE-19 human retinal pigment epithelial cells.
Bevacizumab, a recombinant humanized monoclonal antibody, binds vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and inhibits its interaction with receptors found on endothelial cells. Bevacizumab has been increasingly used as an off-label treatment for exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Whether or not bevacizumab is capable of arresting t...
متن کاملUptake by Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells
Uptake of Ca was studied in isolated frog retinal pigment epithelial cells. Ca accumulation was found to be a saturable, temperature-dependent event. Kinetic analysis of this accumulation revealed two transport systems with apparent km of 2.0 and 0.3 mM. We found the presence of a Na-Ca exchanger mechanism that releases Ca under depolarized conditions. Light induced an increase of Ca uptake due...
متن کاملRetinal sparing by selective retinal pigment epithelial photocoagulation.
OBJECTIVE To investigate whether photocoagulation of the retinal pigment epithelium is possible with sparing of the photoreceptors. METHODS Mild laser effects of a neodymium:yttrium-lithium-fluoride (Nd:YLF) laser (527 nm) were applied to 17 patients. To establish the necessary energy, test exposures were performed to the lower macula (laser variables: 1.7 microseconds, 100 and 500 pulses app...
متن کاملTransdifferentiation of retinal pigment epithelial cells from epithelial to mesenchymal phenotype.
PURPOSE To describe and evaluate retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cell transdifferentiation in vitro and to determine its importance to the development of proliferative vitreoretinal disorders. METHODS Porcine RPE cells from single animals were examined at different passages in culture. The authors examined cellular morphology, contraction of a collagenous matrix, and adhesion to fibronectin ...
متن کاملInduction of an aging mRNA retinal pigment epithelial cell phenotype by matrix-containing advanced glycation end products in vitro.
PURPOSE To determine an extensive mRNA phenotype of the established RPE cell line ARPE-19 when grown on a matrix modified by advanced glycation end products (AGEs). METHODS Growth Factor Reduced Matrigel (Collaborative Biomedical Products, Bedford, MA) was nonenzymatically glycated with glycolaldehyde. ARPE-19 cells were seeded on both AGE-Matrigel and Matrigel and grown to confluence, and se...
