Research Abstract |
In this study I evaluated serum ofthe paraneoplastic retinopathy patients who had retinal ON bipolar dysfunction. I found two patients who had anti-TRPM1 antibodies. I injected sera from one of the patients to mice intravitreously. I discovered the sera caused acute retinal ON bipolar cell death. From our results we suggested retinal dysfunction of the patients were caused by retinal ON bipolar degeneration. We also found intravitreous injection of the serum of paraneoplastic retinopathy patients to mouse eye had a potential to elucidate the mechanisms the diseases. This ON bipolar specific degeneration is a novel finding.
