MiR-203a-3p inhibits retinal angiogenesis and alleviates proliferative diabetic retinopathy in oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) rat model via targeting VEGFA and HIF-1α.
To explore the relationships between the aqueous and vitreous levels of vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A), interleukin-8 (IL-8), placental growth factor (PlGF) and erythropoietin (EPO) in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and neovascular glaucoma (NVG).
We determined vitreous and serum levels of high mobility group box-1 (HMGB-1) in patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and elucidate their relationship with receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and interleukin-1β (IL-1β).
Previous data demonstrated that ORP150 regulates the secretion of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) to drive progression of angiogenesis associated with proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
Outcomes of Eyes Lost to Follow-up with Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy That Received Panretinal Photocoagulation versus Intravitreal Anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor.
Incidence and Risk Factors for Tractional Macular Detachment after Anti-Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Agent Pretreatment before Vitrectomy for Complicated Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy.
The objective was to determine the expression of CD200 in the pre-retinal proliferative fibrovascular membranes (PFVM) of patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and to clarify its correlation with vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and corresponding receptors.
This study determined the colocalization of VEGF and Robo4 in fibrovascular membranes (FVM) from patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR).
We sought to characterize the angiofibrotic and apoptotic effects of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-inhibition on fibrovascular epiretinal membranes in eyes with traction retinal detachment because of proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) being a pro-angiogenic molecule has been found to be high in aqueous and vitreous humour of patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR).
Our aim was to assess the association between VEGF-related rs10738760 and rs6921438 polymorphisms and proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) in Slovenian patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).
Today, the recommended treatment for severe nonproliferative and proliferative diabetic retinopathy is photocoagulation with an argon laser and intravitreal injections of anti-VEGF associated with, or not, focal laser for diabetic macular oedema.
In this study, we for the first time evaluated the concentrations of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and placental growth factor (PlGF) after patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy were treated with intravitreal conbercept (IVC) injection.
We investigated the expression levels of all the four human TIMPs and correlated these levels with those of MMP-9 and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR).
We investigated expression levels of ORP150 and correlated these levels with VEGF and total vitreous antioxidant capacity (TAC) in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR).
Hyperglycemia and intraocular vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) over-accumulation are essential for the progression of diabetic retinopathy, which eventually results in proliferative diabetic retinopathy, characterized by pathologic angiogenesis and impaired vision.
We investigated the expression levels of MMP-14 and correlated the levels with clinical disease activity and with the levels of the angiogenic factors vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and MMP-9 in proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR).
To evaluate the changes in aqueous concentrations of inflammatory cytokines and fibrosis-related factors, and to detect the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and proliferating cells in fibrovascular membranes (FVMs) of patients with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) after injection of intravitreal bevacizumab (IVB).
We aimed to investigate whether vitreous levels of PlGF correlated with proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) status, VEGF levels, and bevacizumab treatment.
