The blood–retina barrier (BRB) is the term used to define the properties of the retinal
capillaries and the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), which separate the systemic circulation …

Retinal microvasculature is crucial for the visual function of the neural retina. Pericytes and
endothelial cells (ECs) are the two main cellular constituents in the retinal microvessels …

Aim To identify retinal findings using dilated eye examination, which are possibly related to
SARS-CoV-2 infection in hospitalised patients with confirmed severe COVID-19. Methods In …

Over the last seven decades, a significant scientific contribution took place in the delineation
of the implications of vascular endothelial‐derived growth factor (VEGF) in the processes of …

The retinal capillary vasculature serves the formidable role of supplying the metabolically
active inner and middle retina. In the parafoveal region, the retinal capillary plexuses (RCP) …

Vascular development in the mammalian retina is a paradigm for CNS vascular
development in general, and its study is revealing fundamental mechanisms that explain the …

The blood retinal barrier (BRB) is a fundamental eye component, whose function is to select
the flow of molecules from the blood to the retina and vice-versa, and its integrity allows the …

Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a common irreversible ocular disease
characterized by vision impairment among older people. Many risk factors are related to …

Many retinal diseases, such as diabetic retinopathy, glaucoma, and age-related macular
(AMD) degeneration, are associated with elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels …

The Wnt signaling pathway plays a pivotal role in vascular morphogenesis in various organs
including the eye. Wnt ligands and receptors are key regulators of ocular angiogenesis both …
