FIELD: biochemistry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to biochemistry. Disclosed is a composition for preventing, treating or diagnosing an eye disease associated with amyloid-beta related pathological abnormalities or changes in visual system tissues. Composition contains an effective amount of amyloid beta-binding antibody. Also disclosed is a method of protecting visual retinal ganglion cells from amyloid-beta induced neuronal degradation, as well as methods of diagnosing, preventing, treating, facilitating development, monitoring minimal residual manifestations, predicting sensitivity of a subject to treatment of eye diseases associated with amyloid-beta related pathological abnormalities or changes. Said methods involve administering a composition containing an antibody to amyloid-beta to a subject.
EFFECT: invention can be used in treating ophthalmic diseases.
