網膜下液の生化学的研究—1．Uveal effusionの網膜および脈絡膜下液

Biochemical study of subretinal fluid.: 1. Uvealeffusion

　Uveal effusionの1症例より得られた網膜下液に対し，ゲル炉過および電気泳動を行い，次の結果を得た。

（1）肉眼的には淡黄色で粘度が高い。

（2）蛋白濃度が高い（8.2g／dl）。

（3）蛋白成分の大部分はalbuminであった。

The subretinal and subchoroidal fluid obtained from a 53-year-old male during the active stage of uveal effusion was analysed by gel filtration and electrophoresis. The subretinal fluid was characterized by remarkably high protein content at 8.2 g/dl, composed almost entirely by albumin. Other large proteins were almost absent. The findings indicate that the protein components in the subretinal fluid in uveal effusion are plasma proteins which entered the subretinal space from the choroid through damaged barrier at the level of the pigment epithelium.
