Effects of an Aquaporin 4 Inhibitor, TGN-020, on Murine Diabetic Retina
Purpose: To investigate the effect of a selective aquaporin 4 (AQP4) inhibitor, 2-(nicotinamide)-1,3,4-thiadiazole (TGN-020), on the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, as well as on the retinal edema in diabetic retina. Methods: Intr...
