Comparative Effects of Coenzyme Q10 or <i>n</i>-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Supplementation on Retinal Angiogenesis in a Rat Model of Oxygen-Induced Retinopathy

Comparative Effects of Coenzyme Q10 or <i>n</i>-3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Supplementation on Retinal Angiogenesis in a Rat Model of Oxygen-Induced Retinopathy

Neonatal intermittent hypoxia (IH) or apnea afflicts 70% to 90% of all preterm infants &lt;28 weeks gestation, and is associated with severe retinopathy of prematurity (ROP). We tested the hypotheses that coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) or omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (<i>n</i>-3 PUFAs)...
