Influence of subretinal fluid in advanced stage retinopathy of prematurity on proangiogenic response and cell proliferation [PDF]
Purpose The clinical phenotype of advanced stage retinopathy of prematurity (ROP, stages 4 and 5) cannot be replicated in an animal model. To dissect the molecular events that can lead up to advanced ROP, we examined subretinal fluid (SRF) and surgically

The juxtamembrane and carboxy-terminal domains of Arabidopsis PRK2 are critical for ROP-induced growth in pollen tubes. [PDF]
Polarized growth of pollen tubes is a critical step for successful reproduction in angiosperms and is controlled by ROP GTPases. Spatiotemporal activation of ROP (Rho GTPases of plants) necessitates a complex and sophisticated regulatory system, in which

The Role of Anti-vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (anti-VEGF) in Retinopathy of Prematurity (ROP)
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a leading cause of childhood blindness, with a higher burden in middle-income countries, such as India. Traditional treatment with cryotherapy and laser photocoagulation has evolved with the introduction of ...

Pentoxifylline dose finding trial in preterm neonates with suspected late onset sepsis (PTX‐trial)
Aim The aim of this study (PTX‐trial) is to determine the optimal dose of pentoxifylline (PTX) in preterm neonates (gestational age < 30 weeks) with (suspected) late onset sepsis (LONS). Methods The PTX‐trial is a prospective multicentre open‐label sequential dose‐optimization study with an adapted continual reassessment method.
