Connexin 43 (Cx43) regulates high-glucose-induced retinal endothelial cell angiogenesis and retinal neovascularization
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is an important microvascular complication of type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) and a major cause of blindness. Retinal neovascularization plays a critical role in the proliferative DR. In this study, high glucose-induced connexin 43 (Cx43) expression in human retina...
