Title:
METHOD FOR ASSESSING INFLAMMATORY RETINAL DISEASE, INFLAMMATORY RETINAL DISEASE THERAPEUTIC, AND SCREENING METHOD FOR INFLAMMATORY RETINAL DISEASE THERAPEUTICS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/113887
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A purpose of the present invention is to provide a novel assessment method that enables early detection, assessment of severity, and assessment of therapeutic effect, etc., of chronic inflammatory retinal diseases including age-related macular degeneration. Another purpose is to provide a novel therapeutic for inflammatory retinal diseases including age-related macular degeneration and to provide a novel screening method for inflammatory retinal disease therapeutics. The present invention is a method for assessing inflammatory retinal diseases associated with tissue inflammation, with extracellular vesicles (EV) produced by the retinal pigment epithelial cells (RPE) of a subject being employed as an indicator. This assessment method is characterized in that the profile of miRNA contained in the extracellular vesicles (EV) (especially miR494-3p and/or miR1246) is employed as an indicator.
