WNT-inhibitory factor 1-mediated glycolysis protects photoreceptor cells in diabetic retinopathy
Abstract Background In diabetic retinopathy (DR), hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1α) induces oxidative stress by upregulating glycolysis. This process leads to neurodegeneration, particularly photoreceptor cell damage, which further contributes to retinal microvascular deterioration. Further, the reg...
