Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Ocular Fluid of Patients with Diabetic Retinopathy and Other Retinal Disorders
Lloyd Paul Aiello,Robert L. Avery,Paul G. Arrigg,B A Keyt,Henry D. Jampel,Sweta Shah,Louis R. Pasquale,Hagen Thieme,Mami Iwamoto,John Edward Park +9 more
TL;DR: The data suggest that VEGF plays a major part in mediating active intraocular neovascularization in patients with ischemic retinal diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy and retinal-vein occlusion.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hypoxic Regulation of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Retinal Cells
TL;DR: Hypoxia increases V EGF expression in retinal cells, which promotes retinal endothelial cell proliferation, suggesting that VEGF plays a major role in mediating intraocular neovascularization resulting from ischemic retinal diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor In Ocular Fluid of Patients with Diabetic Retinopathy and Other Retinal Disorders
Lloyd Paul Aiello,Robert L. Avery,Paul G. Arrigg,B A Keyt,Henry D. Jampel,Sweta Shah,Louis R. Pasquale,Hagen Thieme,Mami Iwamoto,John Edward Park +9 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the concentration of VEGF in ocular fluid obtained from 164 patients undergoing intraocular surgery, using both radioimmunoassays and radioreceptor assays.
Journal ArticleDOI
Penetrating ocular fish-hook injuries. Surgical management and long-term visual outcome.
TL;DR: The results suggest that penetrating ocular fish-hook injuries may have an excellent long-term prognosis if prompt, appropriate surgical intervention is accomplished.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ocular histopathology and ultrastructure of Morquio syndrome (systemic mucopolysaccharidosis IV A)
Mami Iwamoto,Yoshiaki Nawa,Irene H. Maumenee,Joy O. Young-Ramsaran,Reuben Matalon,W. Richard Green +5 more
TL;DR: The findings indicate that the accumulation of mucopolysaccharide in MPS IV A occurs primarily in the structures of the anterior segment.
