Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Biology of vitreous body was investigated during the study period. First, molecular profile of vitreous body was evaluated by measuring such molecules as HMGB-1 and histone H3. The results showed that both were rich in the vitreous with retinal detachment. The co-incubation of HMGB-1 and histone H3 with retinal cells increased the production of inflammatory cytokines by these cells. Furthermore, the apoptosis was induced when added excessively. These indicated that the damage in retinal disease does not only cause functional impairment of the damaged retina, but also induces collateral damage to the surrounding retina. To prevent this complication, we found that hyaluronic acid was most effective, which lead to development of novel surgical method termed “soft shell vitrectomy”. In each project, the detailed cellular mechanisms such as involvement of toll-like receptors were also studied.
