Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Recently, one of our studies has revealed that the serum matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP9) level is elevated in polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV) but not in age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Previous studies have demonstrated that abnormal extracellular matrix (ECM) metabolism plays an important role in the pathogenesis of AMD and PCV. MMP9 is an important regulating enzyme in ECM...
