ON-Type Retinal Ganglion Cells are Preferentially Affected in STZ-Induced Diabetic Mice.

abstract：PURPOSE:Retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) is a major cause of visual handicap in the pediatric population. To date, this disorder is thought to stem from deficient retinal vascularization. Intriguingly, functional electrophysiological studies in patients with mild or moderate ROP and in the oxygen-induced retinopathy (O...
