Senile Macular Degeneration

Detection of Inducible Nitric Oxide Synthase and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Choroidal Neovascular Membranes

“…Histopathologic studies on the development of choroidal neovascularization secondary to age-related macular degeneration (ARMD) have demonstrated that choroidal new vessels arise from the preexisting choroidal vasculature and enter the inner portion of Bruch’s membrane to initiate a phase of fibrovascular growth termed subretinal pigment epithelial neovascularization [1, 2, 3]. This process is characterized by extensive endothelial cell proliferation and migration and generally associated with progressive degeneration of the retinal pigment epithelium and photoreceptor cells [1].…”
