主 题:retinitis pigmentosa optical coherence tomography angiography vascular dysfunction microglia activation
摘 要:Retinitis pigmentosa(RP)is the most recognized inherited retinal disorder involving progressive photoreceptors degeneration which eventually causes ***,the pathogenesis of RP is still unclear,making it difficult to establish satisfying *** have been found to support the theory that vascular dysfunction is associated with the progression of *** coherence tomography angiography(OCTA)is a newly developed technology that enables visualization as well as quantitative assessment of retinal and choroidal vasculature *** in OCTA have opened a window for indepth understanding of RP ***,we propose a hypothesis of RP pathogenesis based on the current OCTA findings in RP,which includes four stages and two important key factors,vascular dysfunction and microglia ***,we discuss the future animal experiments needed and how advanced OCTA technology can help to further verity the *** final goal is to explore potential treatment options with enhanced understanding of RP pathogenesis.
