Retinal microglial densities. Vasculature (IB4) and microglia (Iba1) at the vascular front of retinas from 3-day-old WT and Mas1^−/− mice (a); microglial density in an avascular area (b) and at the vascular front (c); (n = 5–9). Il-6 and Mas1 mRNA expressions by primary microglia during hypoxia (d); Il-10, Notch1, Dll4 and Jag1 mRNA expressions in microglia treated with a MAS agonist (AVE0991, 1 µM) (e); (n = 2 experiments, triplicates). *p < 0.05 versus WT
