- Abstract:
-
An increase or accumulation in tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases-3 (TIMP-3) protein in Bruch's membrane with ageing in normal eyes, and in age related macular degeneration (AMD) has been previously demonstrated. The purpose of this study was to determine whether the expression of TIMP-3 mRNA increases with age, and to define any relationship between altered expression and Bruch's membrane thickness. Normal eyes were obtained from 30 donors (age range 15-90 years). Full-thickness 8...
