Abstract

Background/Aims: Osmotic swelling of Muller cells is a common phenomenon in animal models of ischemic and diabetic retinopathies. Muller cells possess a swelling-inhibitory purinergic signaling cascade which can be activated by various receptor ligands including vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and glutamate. Here, we investigated whether deletion of P2Y(1) (P2Y(1)R) and adenosine A(1) ...
