Intussusceptive Vascular Remodeling Precedes Pathological Neovascularization [PDF]
Objective— Pathological neovascularization is crucial for progression and morbidity of serious diseases such as cancer, diabetic retinopathy, and age-related macular degeneration. While mechanisms of ongoing pathological neovascularization have been extensively studied, the initiating pathological vascular remodeling (PVR ...

Lack of netrin-4 modulates pathologic neovascularization in the eye [PDF]
Netrins are a family of matrix-binding proteins that function as guidance signals. Netrin-4 displays pathologic roles in tumorigenesis and neovascularization.

RhoA/ROCK Signaling Is Involved in Pathological Retinal Neovascularization
Objective: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of the RhoA/ROCK inhibitor Fasudil on retinal neovascularization (NV) in vivo and angiogenesis in vitro. Methods: C57BL/6 was used to establish an OIR model. First, RhoA/ROCK expression was first examined and compared between OIR and healthy controls. Then, we evaluated the effect of Fasudil on

Angiofluorographic Characteristics of Choroidal Neovascularization associated with Pathologic Myopia
Purpose: To evaluate the incidence of choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in high myopic patients who experienced recent visual loss and to describe the characteristics of CNV that develop as a complication of pathologic myopia and were detected by fluorescein angiography (FA).

A Small-Molecule Pan-Id Antagonist Inhibits Pathologic Ocular Neovascularization [PDF]
Summary: Id helix-loop-helix (HLH) proteins (Id1–4) bind E protein bHLH transcription factors, preventing them from forming active transcription complexes that drive changes in cell states.

Choroidal Changes and Choroidal Neovascularization in Pathological Myopia [PDF]
Among the complications of pathological myopia, myopic macular neovascularization (mMNV) is one of the most vision-threatening complications. Despite significant advances in understanding the epidemiology, pathogenesis, and natural history of the disease, there is no standard definition of mMNV.

The lipid ratio castelli’s risk index II is a novel biomarker for intraplaque neovascularization in patients with carotid stenosis [PDF]
Background Dyslipidemia is a well-established cause of atherosclerosis. Intraplaque neovascularization (IPN), a hallmark of vulnerable stroke-prone plaques, is a critical feature of dyslipidemia progression.
