RNA interference inhibits expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in human retinal pigment epithelial cells

Choroidal neovascularization (CNV), a major cause of vision loss, is the result of the increased vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression in human retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. It is important to inhibit the expression of VEGF protein in RPE cells.
