Research Abstract

Our previous studies have suggested that the anti-oxidant, such as thioredoxin, and pitavastatin, could inhibit the development of choroidal neovascularization(CNV). We reported that N-Acetyl-cystein(NAC), which has a tissue protective action against oxidative stress, inhibited indicators of oxidative stress and the activation of NF-
