Plastic roles of pericytes in the blood–retinal barrier
Blood-retinal barrier (BRB) is composed of tightly connected endothelium and supporting pericytes and glia. Here, the authors show that pericytes are crucial for BRB buildup during retinal development and its maintenance in adult retinas in response to VEGF-A-induced endothelial sensitization by reg...
