Endothelial RIPK3 minimizes organotypic inflammation and vascular permeability in ischemia-reperfusion injury

Charmain F. Johnson, Christopher M. Schafer, Kathryn Young Burge…·Courtney T. Griffin

This study shows that endothelial RIPK3 reduces vascular permeability and inflammation in ischemia-reperfusion injury by regulating IL-6 secretion and adhesion molecule expression.

Targeting endothelial ERG to mitigate vascular regression and neuronal ischemia in retinopathies

Eric Ma, Christopher M. Schafer, Jun Xie…·Courtney T. Griffin

This study shows that overexpressing ERG in endothelial cells prevents vascular regression and neuronal damage in OIR models, suggesting ERG as a potential therapeutic target for retinopathies.
