Project description:To study early and late transcriptional changes introduced to blood and retinal tissue in murine oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR). From blood MNCs total RNA was extracted at three time points: immediately after end of hyperoxia (P12), at P17 and P28.

Project description:Using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) we profiled miRNA expression in the retina and choroid during degenerative and NV phases of oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR).
Project description:Analysis of gene expression changes in oxygen-induced retinopathy mice treated intravitreally with inhibitors. oxygen-induced retinopathy(OIR)mice is one of the experimental systems that mimic retinal ischemic diseases. This model is widely used as an evaluation system for various surgical procedures.
Project description:High-throughput sequencing of murine retina of the oxygen induced retinopathy (OIR) model compared to control mice at 5 consecutive days (P12-P16)
Project description:Retinal ischemia is believed to initiate a series of events that leads to retinal neovascularization observed in several retinal diseases such as diabetetic retinopathy and retinal vein occlusion. Although some molecules such as VEGF and MCP-1 have been implicated in the process, its underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In order to identify genes associated with retinal ischemia, we performed gene expression analyses in retinas of mouse model of oxygen-induced retinopathy using DNA microarray technology.
Project description:To investigate the expression profile of genes involved in oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) and the effect of caspase1 deletion on those genes in retina.
Project description:Pathologic ocular angiogenesis is a common cause of blindness in proliferative retinopathy. Small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs) play critical roles in normal development and diseases, and their function in eye diseases and angiogenesis are increasingly recognized. In the present study, we aimed to identify the function and therapeutic potential of sncRNAs in retinopathy. We used microarray to analyze the retinal expression profile of sncRNAs in a mouse oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR) model that mimic human proliferative retinopathy.
