Lychee seed polyphenol protects blood–retinal barrier by increasing tight joint proteins and inhibiting the activation of TLR4/MYD88/NF-κB-mediated NLRP3 inflammasome
Emerging evidence indicates that blood–retinal barrier (BRB) damage is the main cause of diabetic retinopathy (DR), and the downregulation of tight proteins (TJs) located between endothelial cells and the activation of NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated inflammation in Müller cells result in BRB injury.
