A dimer of quercetin prepared through a Mannich reaction protects pyridinium bisretinoid A2E from photooxidation at 430 nm in aqueous medium at pH 7.4. In the presence of light and O2, A2E is quickly attacked by 1O2 produced in situ (by excited A2E) to give nonaoxirane and other oxygenated compounds
BACKGROUND
It has been proposed that antioxidants may prevent cellular damage in the retina by reacting with free radicals that are produced in the process of light absorption.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of this review was to assess the effects of antioxidant vitamin or mineral supplementation, or
BACKGROUND
It has been proposed that antioxidants may prevent cellular damage in the retina by reacting with free radicals that are produced in the process of light absorption. Higher dietary levels of antioxidant vitamins and minerals may reduce the risk of progression of age-related macular
Intensive pretreatment of cats with a combination of the antioxidants D-alpha-tocopherol (200 IU) and selenium (50 micrograms) once daily for 5 days (p.o.) was found to significantly preserve the functional capacity of degenerating soleus motor nerve terminals (measured at 48 h after axon section at
The object is to determine the neuroprotective and antioxidative effects of submicron and blended Lycium barbarum (LB) on retinal degeneration as evaluated by ERG, retinal histopathology and assays of antioxidant (total GSH) and peroxidant (MDA) in the retina. A rat model of light-induced retinal
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible visual impairment and blindness in elderly people. The retina seems particularly susceptible to oxidative stress because of its high concentration of oxygen, polyunsaturated fatty acids, targets as oxygen free radical, and
OBJECTIVE
The relationships between fasting plasma levels of retinol, ascorbic acid, alpha-tochopherol, and beta-carotene and age-related macular degeneration (AMD) were studied in a population enrolled in the Baltimore Longitudinal Study of Aging (BLSA), in which most of the data were collected 2
OBJECTIVE
The purpose of the present review is to evaluate the most recent evidence for a role of antioxidant nutrients in the prevention or delay in progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a major cause of visual impairment and blindness in the aging population.
RESULTS
Recent human
To assess whether dietary intake of antioxidants, fruits, vegetables and fish is associated with 12-month treatment outcomes in neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) patients.A total of 547 participants were diagnosed with nAMD at baseline, of Oxidative stress and macrophages have been implicated in the pathogenesis of atrophic and neovascular age-related macular degeneration (aAMD and nvAMD). It is unclear whether oxidative injury mediates macrophage involvement in AMD. We aimed to investigate the effect of antioxidant BACKGROUND
Some observational studies have suggested that people who eat a diet rich in antioxidant vitamins (carotenoids, vitamins C and E) or minerals (selenium and zinc) may be less likely to develop age-related macular degeneration.

Demographic developments in Europe and North America are causing an increase of age-related diseases. Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of the leading causes of severe central visual acuity loss in elderly people and seems to be an economic problem, too. There is evidence that oxidative
BACKGROUND
There is inconclusive evidence from observational studies to suggest that people who eat a diet rich in antioxidant vitamins (carotenoids, vitamins C and E) or minerals (selenium and zinc) may be less likely to develop age-related macular degeneration (AMD).

OBJECTIVE
To examine the association of sunlight exposure and antioxidant level with age-related macular degeneration (AMD).
METHODS
Four thousand seven hundred fifty-three participants aged 65 years or older in the European Eye Study underwent fundus photography, were interviewed for adult lifetime
