Exploration of Oxygen-Induced Retinopathy Model to Discover New Therapeutic Drug Targets in Retinopathies [PDF]
Oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) is a pure hypoxia-driven angiogenesis model and the most widely used model for ischemic retinopathies, such as retinopathy of prematurity (ROP), proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR), and retinal vein occlusion (RVO ...

Amelioration of oxygen-induced retinopathy in neonatal mice with fetal growth restriction [PDF]
Introduction: With the aim of optimizing the balance of maintaining a safe oxygen saturation and reducing the risk of retinopathy of prematurity in human neonates with fetal growth restriction (FGR), the present study investigated the distinct effects of

Identification of reference genes for the normalization of retinal mRNA expression by RT-qPCR in oxygen induced retinopathy, anemia, and erythropoietin administration [PDF]
Background Anemia and retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) are common comorbidities experienced by preterm infants, yet the role of anemia on the pathogenesis of ROP remains unclear. Reverse-transcriptase quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) is a

Metabolomics Analyses of Mouse Retinas in Oxygen-Induced Retinopathy. [PDF]
Retinal neovascularization is a severe pathological process leading to irreversible blindness. This study aims to identify the altered metabolites and their related pathways that are involved in retinal neovascularization.To reveal the global metabolomic profile change in the retinal neovascularization process, an untargeted metabolomics analysis of ...

Long–Term Impairment of Retinal Ganglion Cell Function After Oxygen–Induced Retinopathy [PDF]
Premature infants with retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) have neovascularization of the retina, potentially resulting in low vision and even blindness. Some of these infants still have visual impairment, even if ROP resolves as they age.

The Protective Effects of Endogenous PACAP in Oxygen-Induced Retinopathy. [PDF]
Abstract Pituitary adenylate cyclase–activating polypeptide (PACAP) is a neuropeptide having trophic and protective functions in neural tissues, including the retina. Previously, we have shown that intravitreal PACAP administration can maintain retinal structure in the animal model of retinopathy of prematurity (ROP).
