Inhibition of reactive gliosis prevents neovascular growth in the mouse model of oxygen-induced retinopathy.
Retinal neovascularization (NV) is a major cause of blindness in ischemic retinopathies. Previous investigations have indicated that ischemia upregulates GFAP and PDGF-B expression. GFAP overexpression is a hallmark of reactive gliosis (RG), which is the major pathophysiological feature of retinal d...
