ISG15+ Müller glial subtype contributes to early blood–retinal barrier breakdown in diabetic retinopathy

Diabetic retinopathy features early glial stress and neurovascular dysfunction, yet Müller glial programs linking inflammatory cues to oxidative injury remain unclear. We identify a spatially clustered interferon-stimulated gene 15 (ISG15) + Müller glial subtype expanded in strep...

Lactate-induced MBD2 K186 lactylation promotes YAP1-dependent myofibroblast-like remodeling of Müller cells in diabetic retinopathy

Abstract Tractional retinal detachment caused by fibroproliferative membrane formation is a vision-threatening complication of proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). Müller cells can acquire myofibroblast-like features during retinal fibroproliferative remodeling, yet the meta...
