Zusammenfassung

PURPOSE. Norrin is essential for the formation of the retinal vasculature during development and promotes its repair after damage via activation of Wnt/beta-catenin signaling. Since retinal TGF-beta signaling has essentially opposite effects on the retinal vasculature we investigated if and how Norrin inhibits TGF-beta signaling, and vice versa. METHODS. Eyes from transgenic mice with an ...
