Abstract:
The present invention relates to the involvement of miR function in the development of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It is shown that miR-23, miR-24 and/or miR-27 are involved in pathologic neovascularization in AMD, and that agonism (miR-24) and inhibition (miR23/27) of the function of these molecules blocks events contributing to development and progression of disease.
