Inhibition of Reactive Oxygen Species by Lovastatin Downregulates Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Expression and Ameliorates Blood-Retinal Barrier Breakdown in db/db Mice: Role of NADPH Oxidase 4
OBJECTIVE: Oxidative stress is a key pathogenic factor in diabetic retinopathy. We previously showed that lovastatin mitigates blood-retinal barrier (BRB) breakdown in db/db mice. The purpose of this study is to determine the mechanisms underlying the salutary effects of lovastatin in diabetic retin...
