Effects of intravitreal insulin and insulin signaling cascade inhibitors on emmetropization in the chick

PURPOSE: Intravitreal insulin has been shown to be a powerful stimulator of myopia in chickens, in particular if the retinal image is degraded or defocused. In most tissues, the insulin receptor activates two main signaling pathways: a) the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascade (e.g., mito...
