Does macrophage depletion diminish lesion size and severity in experimental choroidal neovascularization?
Macrophage depletion using CL(2)MDP-lip reduces size, cellularity, and vascularity of CNV. This observation supports the hypothesis that macrophages contribute to the severity of CNV lesions.
The metabolic syndrome is associated with adipokines in older adults across a wide range of adiposity, including in those with low or normal overall fatness.
