NCK-dependent pericyte migration promotes pathological neovascularization in ischemic retinopathy

Pericytes are perivascular cells that regulate blood vessel formation and function. Here Dubrac et al. show that pericyte recruitment contributes to pathological neovascularisation in a mouse model of ischemic retinopathy, and that this depends on the regulation of PDGF-B signaling by NCK adaptor pr...
