AbstractEpiretinal and subretinal membranes are fibrocellular proliferations which form on the surfaces of the neuroretina as a sequel to a variety of ocular diseases. When these proliferations complicate rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (a condition known as proliferative vitreoretinopathy or PVR), the membranes often contain numerous retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells and a variety of extracellular proteins. The extracellular proteins include adhesive proteins like collagen, laminin and fibronectin. In addition, several matricellular proteins with potential counter-adhesive functions are present in the membranes. Two such matricellular proteins, thrombospondin 1 and osteonectin (or SPARC: Secreted Protein Acidic and Rich in Cysteine), tend to be codistributed with the RPE cells in PVR membranes. By virtue of their counter-adhesive properties, thrombospondin 1 and SPARC may reduce RPE cell-matrix adhesion and so permit key RPE cellular activities (for example, migration or shape change) in periretinal membrane development. Furthermore, within a 'cocktail' containing other proteins such as the metalloproteinases and growth factors like the scatter factor/hepatocyte growth factor family, matricellular proteins may play a role in the RPE cell dissociation from Bruch's membrane, which characterises early PVR.
