Arginase 2 deletion reduces neuro-glial injury and improves retinal function in a model of retinopathy of prematurity.

Arginase 2 deletion reduces neuro-glial injury and improves retinal function in a model of retinopathy of prematurity.

Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a major cause of vision impairment in low birth weight infants. While previous work has focused on defining the mechanisms of vascular injury leading to retinal neovascularization, recent studies show that neurons are also affected.
