Cataract Surgery Induces Retinal Pro-inflammatory Gene Expression and Protein Secretion
18 Aug 2010
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To investigate the effect(s) of cataract surgery on the expression of pro-inflammatory genes and proteins in the retina using an experimental rodent model. METHODS: An extracapsular lens extraction was performed in one eye of C57BL/6 mice (n = 24); the contralateral unoperated eyes (n = 24) as well as eyes from unoperated animals (n = 9) served as controls. The neurosensory retina and retinal pigment...
