Acute caffeine treatment protects the developing retina from ischemia‐induced cell death

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 16, Issue 9, Page 1726-1740, September 2026.
Caffeine reduces cell death in the developing retina under ischemia (OGD). This effect does not involve BDNF upregulation or antioxidant pathways (NRF2/VEGF). Neuroprotection occurs mainly through adenosine A2A receptor antagonism, decreasing glutamate release and excitotoxicity, highlighting caffeine's potential as an acute neuroprotective agent in ...
