Salidroside Prevents Hypoxia-Induced Human Retinal Microvascular Endothelial Cell Damage Via miR-138/ROBO4 Axis

Purpose: Retinopathies are associated with the injury of retinal microvascular endothelial cells. Salidroside (SAL) is a medicinal supplement that has antioxidative and cytoprotective properties. We hypothesized that SAL might have a protective function in retinopathies. This research aims to explore the function and mechanism of SAL in hypoxia-induced retinal microvascular endothelial cell injury. Methods: Human retinal microvascular...
