CD11c+ macrophages are proangiogenic and necessary for experimental choroidal neovascularization
Patients with neovascular AMD (nAMD) suffer vision loss from destructive angiogenesis, termed choroidal neovascularization (CNV). Macrophages are found in CNV lesions from patients with nAMD. Additionally, Ccr2–/– mice, which lack classical monocyte–derived macrophages, show reduced CNV size. Howeve...
