Predictive mathematical models for the spread and treatment of hyperoxia-induced photoreceptor degeneration in retinitis pigmentosa
- Abstract:
-
Purpose
To determine whether the oxygen toxicity hypothesis can explain the distinctive spatio-temporal patterns of retinal degeneration associated with human retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and to predict the effects of antioxidant and trophic factor treatments under this hypothesis.
Methods
Three mathematical models were derived to describe the evolution of the retinal oxygen concentration and photoreceptor density over time. The first model considers only hyperoxia-i...
