Research led by scientists at St George's, University of London has discovered 119 areas in the genome that help to determine the size and shape of blood vessels at the back of the eye, and that ...

New research has found that the endothelial cell-specific A disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 10 (ADAM10) regulates abnormal blood vessel growth in the damaged retina ...

Changes to retinal blood vessels may be an indicator of development of preeclampsia, according to a poster presented at the 2024 meeting of the Society for Reproductive Investigation. Preeclampsia ...

The study found that p53—a protein known for protecting against cancer—weakens the Norrin/Frizzled4 signaling system in blood vessels by lowering levels of another protein called NCAPH. These ...

Researchers are planning future studies on HIF, the breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier and 32-134D, and hope to conduct clinical studies of 32-134D in patients with diabetic retinopathy.

The retina is the only organ where blood vessels are directly seen without any invasive measures. A South Korean startup, Mediwhale, wants to use artificial intelligence (AI) to diagnose kidney ...

A new, alternative treatment for those patients may be surgical removal of the abnormal blood vessels followed by the transplantation of stem cell-derived retinal cells, according to a recent study.

A 2022 review of multiple studies on Alzheimer’s disease found that the changes in retinal blood vessels identified by the OCTA test may be a biomarker for early Alzheimer’s disease.

Scientists have known for years that a lattice of blood vessels nourishes cells in the retina that allow us to see -- but it's been a mystery how the intricate structure is created. Now ...
