Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of new onset blindness among working age individuals. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) has been strongly implicated as a primary mediator of ocular complications in diabetes and age-related macular degeneration. We reported that mechanical stretch induced expression of VEGF and its receptors in retinal vascular cells and demonstrated that retinal expression of VEGF and VEGF-R2 was increased during hypertension in vivo. It has recently been demonstrated that G protein-coupled receptor 91 (GPR91: a succinate receptor) plays a major role in both vasculature development and retinal angiogenesis. Recently, we have reported increases of succinate in vitreous from proliferative diabetic retinopathy patients and the signaling pathways involved in hypertension-dependent succinate release.
