The role of plasmalemma vesicle-associated protein in pathological breakdown of blood –brain and blood–retinal barriers: potential novel therapeutic target for cerebral edema and diabetic macular edema
AbstractBreakdown of the blood –brain barrier (BBB) or inner blood–retinal barrier (BRB), induced by pathologically elevated levels of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) or other mediators, can lead to vasogenic edema and significant clinical problems such as neuronal morbidity and mortality, or vision loss. Restoratio n of the barrier function with corticosteroids in the brain, or by blocking VEGF in the eye are currently the predominant treatment options for brain edema and diabetic macular edema, respectively. However, corticosteroids have side effects, and VEGF has important neuroprotective, vascular protect...
