Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We tried to detect AGEs in the basement membrane in the eye, and establish the AGE detection clinical equipments. AGE can cause organ dysfunction in the various conditions, abnormalities of the basement membrane are thought to contribute to the complications of aging. Eye ball must be the easiest organ to detect AGE in the whole body. We established the best conditioned wavelength in mode-fixed titanium sapphire laser light source. It was also confirmed that by using an objective lens with a working distance of 30 mm or more, the retina and the lens are easy to evaluate.
