Figure 9.
Panels illustrate retinal neovascularization in the rat OIR model. Fluorescein-infused retinal flat-mounts from room air (A) and OIR (B) treatments show vaso-attenuation of the retinal periphery in the latter. After a brief post-oxygen exposure period in room air, neovascular tufts arise in the mid-periphery as illustrated in ADPase-stained retinal flat mounts (C).
