Rapamycin prevents retinal neovascularization by downregulation of cyclin D1 in a mouse model of oxygen-induced retinopathy

Abstract Background Rapamycin (RAPA) is a potent angiogenic inhibitor and the aim of this study is to identify the inhibitory effect of RAPA on retinal neovascularization (RNV) in experimental oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR). Methods Forty-two 7-day-old C57BL/6 J mice were randomly divided into nor...
