摘要
Purpose: We examined the potential for the pro-inflammatory complement proteins C5a and C3a to increase VEGF expression in ARPE-19 cells. Materials and Methods: Expression of complement receptors in ARPE-19 cells was evaluated by RT-PCR. VEGF secretion from ARPE-19 cells treated with C5a or C3a was determined by ELISA. Results: C5a and C3a receptor, but not C5L2, were detected in human eye tissue and ARPE-19 cells. C5a, but not C3a, treatment increased VEGF secretion from ARPE-19 cells, an effect inhibited by the C5aR antagonist, NDT 9513727. Conclusions: C5a receptor mediates increased VEGF secretion from ARPE-19 cells, suggesting a role for the C5a receptor in the pathogenesis of macular degeneration.
