Research Abstract |
An Activin concentration in the vitreous of Proliferative Diabetic Retinopathy was higher than that of Simple Diabetic Retinopathy. Activin inhibited tubulogenesis of HUVECs even in the presence of VEGF. Follistatin induced tubulogenesis of HUVECs. Injection of Activin in the vitreous decreased the size of Laser-induced mouse choroidal neovascularization.
