25 Jan 2017
Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) previously thought to be "dark matter" of the genome, play key roles in various biological processes. The lncRNA ANRIL is located at a genetic susceptibility locus for coronary artery diseases and type 2 diabetes. We examined the role of ANRIL in diabetic retinopathy, through study of its regulation of VEGF both in vitro and in vivo. Methods: Human retinal endothelial cells...
