Anti-VEGF therapy is not a magic bullet for diabetic retinopathydoi:10.1038/s41433-019-0652-3Mingwei ZhaoYaoyao SunYuzhen JiangEye
When we inject these medications into the eye, the molecules of the drugs soak up the free VEGF molecules, quenching their ability to act on the M target, which are VEGF receptors on the cells in the retinal vessels. There are several agents that we currently use: ranibizumab, which was ...
In diabetic rethinopathys there are lot of anevrisms, neovesels at the peripheric retina and optic nerv disc, anddifuz vascular leakage sometimes with severe hemorages. After anti VEGF action the neoocular structures are remised.doi:10.4321/S0365-66912010000200006Manuela Beruica...
Ischemia and inflammation also lead to VEGF-mediated breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier, which causes vision diminishing macular edema. To combat these effects, anti-VEGF drugs (antibodies, aptamers, and tyrosine kinase inhibitors) have been developed for both systemic and local (intraocular) use...
Some patients do not respond well to anti-VEGF drugs and repeated intravitreal injections increase the treatment burden for patients. The VVV study aims to explore whether PPV combined with ILM peeling could become an initial treatment option for treatment-naïve DME patients. Trial registration Clin...
Background Diabetic macular oedema (DMO) is a common complication of diabetic retinopathy. Antiangiogenic therapy with anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (anti-VEGF) modalities can reduce oedema and thereby improve vision and prevent further visual loss. These drugs have replaced laser photocoagulatio...

Intravitreal injections of anti-vascular endothelial growth factor drugs have become the gold standard treatment for diabetic retinopathy (DR). However, several patients are classified as non-responders or poor responders to treatment. Therefore, it is essential to study alternative target molecules. We...
