Diabetic Retinopathy

Information about Diabetic Retinopathy: characteristics, related genes and pathways, plus antibodies you can use for research. This page is being enriched constantly, if you see some information you would like this page to include please send your suggestions to us.

Overview of Diabetic Retinopathy

Most recent studies have shown that Diabetic Retinopathy shares some biological mechanisms with age-related-macular-degeneration, blind-vision, cataract, complications-of-diabetes-mellitus, diabetes-mellitus, diabetes-mellitus-insulin-dependent, diabetes-mellitus-non-insulin-dependent, diabetic-angiopathies, diabetic-macular-edema, diabetic-nephropathy, diabetic-neuropathies, disorder-of-eye, edema, glaucoma, hypertensive-disease, kidney-diseases, macular-retinal-edema, pathologic-neovascularization, proliferative-diabetic-retinopathy, retinal-diseases.

Among the many pathways, these few ones have gauged particular interests from scientists studying Diabetic Retinopathy, and have been seen in publications frequently: Aging, Angiogenesis, Cell Adhesion, Cell Death, Cell Growth, Cell Proliferation, Coagulation, Endothelial Cell Proliferation, Excretion, Glomerular Filtration, Glycosylation, Insulin Secretion, Localization, Pathogenesis, Platelet Aggregation, Secretion, Segmentation, Transport, Tube Formation, Wound Healing

Quite a number of genes have been found to play important roles in Diabetic Retinopathy, such as ABCB6, ACE, ADH1A, ADH1B, ADH1C, ADH4, ADH6, AKR1A1, AKR1B1, ALB, ERG, IGF1, IL6, INS, KCNH2, PRNP, SERPINF1, ST3GAL4, TNF, VEGFA.

In a later update, we will include information such as current drugs and therapy solutions as well as on-going and past clinical trials for this disease. Plesae stay updated.
