Role of Vitrectomy in Nontractional Refractory Diabetic Macular Edema Open
Background: Currently, the gold standard of diabetic macular edema (DME) treatment is anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) injections, although a percentage of patients do not respond optimally. Vitrectomy with or without interna…

Membrane Blue Dual Protects Retinal Pigment Epithelium Cells/Ganglion Cells—Like through Modulation of Mitochondria Function Open
Although recent data highlight the greater protective effects exerted by Membrane Blue Dual (MBD), a precise analysis of the mechanisms of action is missing. We examined the effects of MBD with/without polyethylene glycol (PEG) on both hum…

Aflibercept and Ranibizumab Modulate Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells Function by Acting on Their Cross Talk with Vascular Endothelial Cells Open
This study has shown new mechanisms at the basis of protective effects elicited by Aflibercept/Ranibizumab in RPE cells. HUVEC stimulated with Aflibercept/Ranibizumab, could release some paracrine factors that can modulate the RPE cells re…
