Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated level of vascular endothelial growth factor A - 165b (VEGFA-165b) which has been reported to be anti-angiogenic, in the anterior chanber of eyes with age related macular degeneration (AMD) and retinal vein occlusion (RVO). The level of VEGFA-165b in AMD was similar to that in controls suggesting the role of anti-angiogenic isoform of VEGF is not very important in AMD. On the other hand, the level of VEGFA-165b was low in eyes with RVO. We suggest the anti-angiogenic effect by VEGFA-165b is less in the eyes RVO and there is a pro-angiogenic shif of VEGF in RVO. The experimental choroidal neovascularization model induced by 13(S)-HpODE was reduced by intravitreal injection of human reconbinant VEGFA-165b but the effect was limited.
