BALTIMORE, Maryland, Dec. 7 (TNSres) -- Johns Hopkins Medicine issued the following news release:
In the December issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, Wilmer Eye Institute researchers at Johns Hopkins Medicine have found how a molecular pathway -- involving oxidative stress, or an imbalance of molecular oxygen in cells, and the protein HIF-1 -- contributes to what kind of age-related macular degeneration (AMD) a patient could develop.
