pubmed:abstractText |
We previously demonstrated that differentiated retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells express high levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF), and a critical balance between VEGF and PEDF is important to prevent the development of choroidal neovascularization. We report here that VEGF secreted by RPE cells upregulates PEDF expression via VEGFR-1 in an autocrine manner. PEDF mRNA and protein expression was downregulated by neutralizing antibody against VEGF in differentiated human RPE cells. VEGFR-1 neutralization decreased PEDF mRNA and protein expression whereas anti-VEGFR-2 antibody had no effect. Addition of placenta growth factor (PlGF) restored PEDF expression in the presence of anti-VEGF antibody. These results demonstrate a regulatory interaction between angiogenesis stimulators and inhibitors to maintain homeostasis in normal human retina.
