Cyclic AMP Response Element Binding Protein Mediates Pathological Retinal Neovascularization via Modulating DLL4-NOTCH1 Signaling [PDF]
Retinal neovascularization is the most common cause of moderate to severe vision loss in all age groups. Despite the use of anti-VEGFA therapies, this complication continues to cause blindness, suggesting a role for additional molecules in retinal ...

CM082 suppresses hypoxia-induced retinal neovascularization in larval zebrafish. [PDF]
Retinal neovascularization is a common feature of several ocular neovascular diseases, which are the leading cause of blindness in the world. Current treatments are administered through invasive intravitreal injections, leading to poor patient compliance,
