Abstract
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...
