Imatinib Ameliorated Retinal Neovascularization by Suppressing PDGFR-α and PDGFR-β

Background/Aims: Platelet-derived growth factors (PDGFs) have emerged as pivotal in pathological angiogenesis, which is a hallmark of various tumors and retinal diseases. Here we evaluated the anti-angiogenic effect of imatinib, an inhibitor of PDGF receptors α and β (PDGFR-α and -β), in retinal neo...
