PDGFD-induced pericyte contractility drives pathological neoangiogenesis

Andreia Pena, Lenka Henao Misikova, Yi Jin…·Claudio Areias Franco

This study identifies PDGFD-ROCK-NMIIA signaling in pericytes as a driver of pathological neoangiogenesis in retinopathies, revealing cell-type-specific actomyosin contractility mechanisms.

Mouse retinal cell behaviour in space and time using light sheet fluorescence microscopy

Claudia Prahst, Parham Ashrafzadeh, Thomas Mead…·Katie Bentley

This paper demonstrates the feasibility of 3D/4D light-sheet fluorescence microscopy for imaging mouse retinal pathology, revealing new features in the OIR model and highlighting distorted morphology from flat-mounting.
