Scientists have discovered a new way to protect the retina in diseases such as diabetes, glaucoma and hypertension.. A positive effect has an enzyme that helps the liver get rid of ammonia..

Scientists from the Medical College of the University of Augustus in Georgia conducted laboratory tests on mice to find a way to restore vision in diabetes, glaucoma, hypertension, or prematurity of the child.. When blood flow is impaired, the retina suffers, and scientists are going to reduce the damage, as they already have the first results.. As a result of the experiment, it was possible to prove that arginase 1 enzyme therapy helps to solve vision problems..

In particular, the experiment was performed with ischemic retinopathy, as a result of which it was proved that the enzyme helped macrophages achieve a less destructive effect in the retina. However, in chronic diseases such therapy may have undesirable side effects..

At the moment, scientists are studying in detail the effect of arginase 1 on the retina to achieve a more effective solution to the problem.. Also, doctors recommend eating turkey meat, pumpkin seeds and peanuts to replenish stocks of L-arginine..
