Interleukin-1-beta changes the expression of metalloproteinases in the vitreous humor and induces membrane formation in eyes containing preexisting retinal holes

Proliferative vitreoretinopathy occurs when cells migrate into the vitreous humor, where they proliferate and produce a membrane composed of extracellular matrix. Interleukin-1-beta (IL-1-beta) may be involved in these processes because it is chemotactic and mitogenic, and it stimulates metalloprote...
