Animal Models of Retinopathy of Prematurity: Advances and Metabolic Regulators
23 Aug 2024
Abstract excerpt
Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a primary cause of visual impairment and blindness in premature newborns, characterized by vascular abnormalities in the developing retina, with microvascular alteration, neovascularization, and in the most severe cases retinal detachment. To elucidate the pathophysiology and develop therapeutics for ROP, several pre-clinical experimental models of ROP were developed in...
