Pericyte Expression of VEGF-A Minimally Impacts Ocular Vascular Development and Neovascularization

Cells
Pericytes produce vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A; hereafter referred to as VEGF). VEGF inhibits pericyte proliferation and migration through enhanced VEGFR2 and PDGFRβ heterodimerization.

Limited Efficacy of Autologous Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Injections in Immunomodulatory‐Dependent Dogs With Aqueous Deficient Dry Eye Disease

Veterinary Ophthalmology, Volume 29, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Objective Aqueous deficient dry eye disease (ADDE) results from a quantitative reduction in aqueous tears. We sought to determine the clinical effect of autologous mesenchymal stromal cell (MSC) injections into the region of the lacrimal gland and the gland of the third eyelid in immunomodulatory‐dependent ADDE‐affected dogs. Methods Dogs (n =

Lung Pericytes: Molecular Mechanisms, Signaling Pathways, and Roles in Pulmonary Diseases

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 4, August 2026.
Central role of pericytes across major pulmonary diseases. Conceptual wheel diagram illustrating the central role of lung pericytes across diverse pulmonary disease states. A pericyte positioned at the center expresses canonical markers, including PDGFRβ, CD146, and NG2, and connects radially to five major disease contexts.

The roles of macrophage migration inhibitory factor in retinal diseases

Neural Regeneration Research
Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF), a multifunctional cytokine, is secreted by various cells and participates in inflammatory reactions, including innate and adaptive immunity. There are some evidences that MIF is involved in many vitreoretinal

Moutan Cortex Extract Mediates Diabetic Retinopathy by Blocking the ROS‑Triggered HIF‐1α/VEGF Axis in Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells

eFood, Volume 7, Issue 4, August 2026.
Schematic diagram of the mechanism by which Moutan Cortex extract (MCE) ameliorates DR. MCE alleviates retinal structural damage and reduces neovascular lesions by downregulating the ROS/HIF‐1α/VEGF signaling axis. ABSTRACT Moutan Cortex is a functional food ingredient with multiple health benefits, but its effects on diabetic retinopathy (DR) remain ...

SIRT Family: Biological Functions and Therapeutic Targets

MedComm, Volume 7, Issue 8, August 2026.
SIRT1–SIRT7 networks from transgenic mice to human‑relevant therapeutic targets. SIRT1–SIRT7 form an isoform‑, organ‑, and disease‑specific regulatory network. Transgenic Sirt1–7 mouse models define central regulatory SIRTs (SIRT1, SIRT3, SIRT6), context‑dependent modifiers (SIRT2, SIRT4, SIRT5, SIRT7), and their key mechanisms and target organs. These
