Retinal VEGF-A Overexpression Is Not Sufficient to Induce Lymphangiogenesis Regardless of VEGF-C Upregulation and Lyve1(+) Macrophage Infiltration

PURPOSE: No lymphatic vessels have been identified in the retina. This study investigated whether pathological VEGF-A–overexpressing diabetic retina causes lymphangiogenesis. METHODS: Three genetic mouse models of diabetic retinopathy (DR) (Akita [Ins2(+/−)], Kimba [vegfa(+/+)], and Akimba [Akita ×...
