Investigating the integrity of the vasculature and structural relationships of pericytes, astrocytes and the endothelial glycocalyx in an ex vivo hyperglycaemic rat retinal model

Background: Diabetes mellitus-induced retinopathy is the leading cause of adult-onset blindness. The retinopathy is characterised by the degeneration of the retinal microvascular and neural components that form the blood retinal barrier (BRB), and is due to diabetic metabolic derangements such as hy...
