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.

Disruption of profilin1 function suppresses developmental and pathological retinal neovascularization [PDF]
Angiogenesis-mediated neovascularization in the eye is usually associated with visual complications. Pathological angiogenesis is particularly prominent in the retina in the settings of proliferative diabetic retinopathy, in which it can lead to permanent loss of vision.

Potential Role for ADAM15 in Pathological Neovascularization in Mice [PDF]
ADAM15 (named for a disintegrin and metalloprotease 15, metargidin) is a membrane-anchored glycoprotein that has been implicated in cell-cell or cell-matrix interactions and in the proteolysis of molecules on the cell surface or extracellular matrix.

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 ...

Lipid Mediators, M2 Macrophages, and Pathological Neovascularization [PDF]
Sasaki and colleagues [1] (JCI Insight 2018;3,e96902) identified the leukocyte inflammatory lipid mediator leukotriene B4 (LTB4)/LTB4 receptor 1 receptor-signaling axis in M2 macrophages as a causal pathway for the vascular endothelial growth factor-dependent pathological neovascularization in a mouse model that mimics wet age-related macular ...

ADAM9 Is Involved in Pathological Retinal Neovascularization [PDF]
Pathological ocular neovascularization, caused by diabetic retinopathy, age-related macular degeneration, or retinopathy of prematurity, is a leading cause of blindness, yet much remains to be learned about its underlying causes. Here we used oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) and laser-induced choroidal neovascularization (CNV) to assess the ...

Interleukin-18 regulates pathological intraocular neovascularization [PDF]
AbstractRecently, the proinflammatory cytokine IL-18 has been shown to have a role in angiogenesis. This study aimed to elucidate its role in abnormal neovascularization (NV) in an oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) mouse model of the retinopathy seen in human premature newborns.

Sirtuin1 Over-Expression Does Not Impact Retinal Vascular and Neuronal Degeneration in a Mouse Model of Oxygen-Induced Retinopathy [PDF]
Proliferative retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness, including retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) in children and diabetic retinopathy in adults. Retinopathy is characterized by an initial phase of vessel loss, leading to tissue ischemia and hypoxia,
