Age-related macular degeneration is the leading cause of blindness in the elderly. Choroidal neovascularization (CNV) leads to severe vision loss in patients of age-related macular degeneration. Previously, we have demonstrated that deguelin, isolated from plants in the Mundulea sericea family, is a chemopreventive agent. This study evaluates the antiangiogenic effect of deguelin on CNV. The toxicity of deguelin was evaluated through 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide… 
Anti-angiogenic effect of caffeic acid on retinal neovascularization.
Anti-complement component 5 antibody targeting MG4 domain inhibits choroidal neovascularization
TLDR
It is demonstrated that an anti-mouse complement component 5 (C5) antibody targeting MG4 domain of β chain effectively inhibited CNV which was induced by laser photocoagulation in mice.
Human Apolipoprotein(a) Kringle V Inhibits Ischemia-Induced Retinal Neovascularization via Suppression of Fibronectin-Mediated Angiogenesis
TLDR
The inhibitory effect of recombinant human apolipoprotein(a) kringle V (rhLK8) in an animal model of ischemia-induced retinal neovascularization is demonstrated and suggested the possible application of rhK8 in the treatment of retinalNeovascularized by suppression of fibronectin-mediated angiogenesis.
N-hydroxy-7-(2-naphthylthio) heptanomide inhibits retinal and choroidal angiogenesis.
TLDR
It is indicated that HNHA has direct antiangiogenic effects and may be an effective strategy for inhibiting the pathological retinal and choroidal neovascularization underlying blinding eye diseases.
Wet-AMD on a Chip: Modeling Outer Blood-Retinal Barrier In Vitro.
TLDR
A unique organotypic eye-on-a-chip model is described that mimics the RPE-choroid complex in vitro that can successfully mimic the pathogenesis of CNV especially in terms of morphogenesis, which is penetrating angiogenic sprouts from pre-existing choroidal vessels that result in breakdown of RPE monolayer.

Quantitative image analysis of laser-induced choroidal neovascularization in rat.
TLDR
High resolution angiography with FITC-dextran is reproducible and quantifiable, and it may accelerate the discovery of therapeutic agents that modulate choroidal neovascularization.
The role of retinal pigment epithelium in the involution of subretinal neovascularization.
TLDR
In involution of the neovascular membrane with maturation, as demonstrated by the cessation of visible fluorescein leakage, is the result of RPE proliferation that tightly envelopes the newly formed vessels and probably resorbs the previously accumulated subretinal fluid, as well as preventing its further accumulation in theSubretinal space.
Vascular endothelial growth factor in ocular fluid of patients with diabetic retinopathy and other retinal disorders.
TLDR
The data suggest that VEGF plays a major part in mediating active intraocular neovascularization in patients with ischemic retinal diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy and retinal-vein occlusion.
Effects of deguelin on the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase/Akt pathway and apoptosis in premalignant human bronchial epithelial cells.
TLDR
The ability of deguelin to inhibit PI3K/Akt-mediated signaling pathways may contribute to the potency and specificity of this pro-apoptotic drug.
Chemopreventive effects of deguelin, a novel Akt inhibitor, on tobacco-induced lung tumorigenesis.
TLDR
The results indicate that deguelin warrants consideration as a chemopreventive agent for early-stage lung carcinogenesis in a clinical lung cancerChemoprevention trial.

Deguelin-Induced Inhibition of Cyclooxygenase-2 Expression in Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells
TLDR
The sensitivity of the squamous HBE and NSCLC cells to deguelin and the inhibitory effects of deguel in on COX-2 expression in the squamy HBE cells indicate that regulation of COX -2 expression is involved in the chemopreventive action of Deguelin in lung cancer.
Age‐related macular degeneration—emerging pathogenetic and therapeutic concepts
TLDR
Recently, compelling evidence has emerged that the innate immune system and, more specifically, uncontrolled regulation of the complement alternative pathway plays a central role in the pathobiology of AMD.
Regulation of ornithine decarboxylase induction by deguelin, a natural product cancer chemopreventive agent.
TLDR
Deguelin-mediated interference with transient requirements for elevated energy can inhibit the induction of ODC activity and thereby yield a cancer chemopreventive response, and antimicrotubule effects are not responsible for inhibitory activity facilitated by deguelin.
Structural basis for depletion of heat shock protein 90 client proteins by deguelin.
TLDR
Administration of deguelin to xenograft-bearing mice statistically significantly decreased tumor growth by inducing apoptosis and decreasing the expression of Hsp90 client proteins, without detectable toxic effects.
