BackgroundDiabetic retinopathy (DR) is one of the most common microvascular complications of diabetes, which is associated with damage of blood-retinal barrier and ischemia of retinal vasculature. It
Retinal hypoxia is one of the causative factors of diabetic retinopathy and is also one of the triggers of VEGF release. We hypothesized that specific dysregulated miRNAs in diabetic retinopathy could
This dataset comprises peripheral blood DNA samples from patients with diabetic retinopathy (DR), focusing on the results of five single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The SNPs include rs10061133 (M
