Exploring the choroidal vascular labyrinth and its molecular and structural roles in health and disease
20
TL;DR: In this article , the role of the choroid in various physiological and pathophysiological mechanisms is discussed, focusing on the role played by choroidal endothelial cells (CECs) in maintaining ocular homeostasis and plays a role in various chorioretinal diseases.

Choroidal arteriovenous anastomoses: a hypothesis for the pathogenesis of central serous chorioretinopathy and other pachychoroid disease spectrum abnormalities
TL;DR: The potential of arteriovenous anastomoses in the choroid as a causal mechanism of the pachychoroid disease spectrum is assessed, and a novel unifying concept on the pathophysiological basis of the PDS is proposed.
The Role of Diabetic Choroidopathy in the Pathogenesis and Progression of Diabetic Retinopathy
TL;DR: In this article , the evidence of diabetic choroidopathy in vivo was confirmed with multimodal imaging, which provides key quantitative and qualitative features to characterize the choroidal involvement.

Verteporfin-mediated on/off photoswitching functions synergistically to treat choroidal vascular diseases
Yahan Ju,Xiao Hua Dai,Zhimin Tang,Zunzhen Ming,Ni Ni,Dongqing Zou,Ning Zhang,Bo Ma,Jiajing Wang,Rui Huang,Siyu Zhao,Yanjie Pang,P. Gu +12 more
TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper developed an in situ verteporfin delivery system with a photoswitching synergistic function that disassembles in response to intraocular inflammatory enzymes, which provides a promising strategy with synergistic antiangiogenic effects for the treatment of choroidal vascular diseases.

Parapapillary choroidal microvasculature predicts diabetic retinopathy progression and diabetic macular edema development: a three-year prospective study.
Xiao Guo,Yanping Chen,G. Bulloch,Kun Xiong,Yifan Chen,Yuting Li,Huan Liao,Wen Wu Huang,Zhuoting Zhu +8 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the peripapillary flow deficit percentage (CC FD), vessel density (VD), and perfusion density (PD) were quantified to determine the predictive value of the microcirculation of the optic nerve head by OCT angiography for identifying individuals with high risk of diabetic retinopathy (DR) progression and diabetic macular edema (DME) development.

Correlation between Choroidal Vascularity Index and Outer Retina in Patients with Diabetic Retinopathy
TL;DR: Outside retinal and choroidal parameters were quantified to understand better the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy and diabetic macular edema and other pathogenic mechanisms seem to predominate in the latter group.

Ultrastructural evidence of remodelling in the microvasculature of the normal rabbit and human eye.
Edward E. Manche,Gary E. Korte +1 more
TL;DR: Cytoplasmic processes and redundant basal laminae were observed in the microvasculature at both sites, most frequently associated with venules and capillaries, suggesting that the microvaculature is remodelled in the normal eye.

Infrared imaging of circumscribed choroidal hemangiomas.
TL;DR: Infrared imaging delineates intratumoral vessels in choroidal tumors appearing as dark beaded loops and tufts in CCH, and vascular loops on IR imaging showed a high diagnostic sensitivity for CCH.

The eye as a complement dysregulation hotspot.
TL;DR: A full understanding of how complement regulation is compartmentalized in the eye is required is required, a topic that will be highlighted in this review.
Chronic central serous chorioretinopathy: long-term follow-up and vision-related quality of life
Myrte B. Breukink,Alexander J. M. Dingemans,Anneke I. den Hollander,Jan E.E. Keunen,Robert E MacLaren,Sascha Fauser,Giuseppe Querques,Carel B. Hoyng,Susan M. Downes,Camiel J. F. Boon +9 more
TL;DR: This study indicates that cCSC is a progressive disease in many patients, causing a progressive decline in visual acuity, accompanied by lower reported vision-related quality of life.
Differential arterial/venous expression of NG2 proteoglycan in perivascular cells along microvessels: identifying a venule-specific phenotype.
TL;DR: The objective of this study was to characterize NG2 expression along vessels within rat microvascular networks and compare this to SM α‐actin expression.
