Increased blood pressure induces a diameter response of retinal arterioles that increases with decreasing arteriolar diameter.

abstract：PURPOSE:Cystinosis is caused by a deficiency in the lysosomal cystine transporter, cystinosin (CTNS gene), resulting in cystine crystal accumulation in tissues. In eyes, crystals accumulate in the cornea causing photophobia and eventually blindness. Hematopoietic stem progenitor cells (HSPCs) rescue the kidney in a mou...
