Abstract |
The neovascular form of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) manifested with choroidal neovascularization (CNV) is one of the leading causes of rapid and irreversible visual loss. Recent reports suggest that bone marrow-derived stem/progenitor cells (SPCs) play a crucial role in the development and progression of the disease. The purpose of this study was to investigate whether or not undifferentiated non-haematopoietic stem cells, including those capable of differentiating into neural phenotypes, play a role in the pathological state of CNV formation. |
