BMP4 inhibits corneal neovascularization by interfering with tip cells in angiogenesis
2023-04-14
Abstract excerpt
Corneal neovascularization (CNV) can lead to impaired corneal transparency, resulting in vision loss or blindness. The primary pathological mechanism underlying CNV is an imbalance between pro-angiogenic and anti-angiogenic factors, with inflammation playing a crucial role. Notably, a vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)-A gradient triggers the selection of single endothelial cells(ECs) into primary tip cells...
