Deletion of p75NTR prevents vaso-obliteration and retinal neovascularization via activation of Trk- A receptor in ischemic retinopathy model
Abstract Ischemic retinopathy is characterized by ischemia followed by retinal neovascularization (RNV) resulting in visual impairment. Given the role of neuron-secreted growth factors in regulating angiogenesis, we examined how genetic deletion of the neurotrophin receptor; p75NTR can overcome reti...
