Involvement of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium in the Development of Retinal Lattice Degeneration

Involvement of the Retinal Pigment Epithelium in the Development of Retinal Lattice Degeneration

Lattice degeneration involves thinning of the retina that occurs over time. Here we performed an immunohistological study of tissue sections of human peripheral retinal lattice degeneration to investigate if retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells are involved in the pathogenesis of this condition. I...
