Journal ArticleDOI

Drusen, choroidal neovascularization, and retinal pigment epithelium dysfunction in SOD1-deficient mice: a model of age-related macular degeneration.

TL;DR: It is shown that mice deficient in Cu, Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD1) have features typical of age-related macular degeneration in humans, and these findings provide evidence for the free radical theory of aging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Signaling Contributes to Synaptophysin Degradation and Neuronal Dysfunction in the Diabetic Retina

TL;DR: These data indicate the first molecular evidence of the RAS-induced synaptophysin degradation and neuronal dysfunction in the diabetic retina, suggesting the possibility of the AT1R blockade as a novel neuroprotective treatment for diabetic retinopathy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuroprotective effects of angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) blocker, telmisartan, via modulating AT1R and AT2R signaling in retinal inflammation

TL;DR: Investigating the retinal neural damage that occurs during inflammation and the therapeutic effects of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) blocker, telmisartan, using a model of endotoxin-induced uveitis found that retinal protein expression and visual function are both disturbed by inflammation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Retinal Dysfunction and Progressive Retinal Cell Death in SOD1-Deficient Mice

TL;DR: The results indicate that Sod1(-/-) mice may be a good model system in which to study the mechanism of reactive oxygen species-mediated retinal degeneration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparison of scleral buckling and vitrectomy for retinal detachment resulting from flap tears in superior quadrants.

TL;DR: Primary vitrectomy was as successful as scleral buckling for treating superior rhegmatogenous retinal detachment and even though the high incidence of postoperative cataract formation was the major drawback, vit rectomy had some advantages over sclal buckling.
