A summary of the identified associations of Eph and ephrins with proliferative vitreoretinopathy.

Name Established Association with
Proliferative Vitreoretinopathy
Possible Mechanism Possible Use in Clinical Practice Reference
ephrinB2 and EphB4 Expression in PVR membranes Effect on migration and transdifferentiation of RPE cells Potential therapeutic target [63]
EphB4 Reduction of PDGF-induced
migration and proliferation of
RPE cells by the soluble form of EphB4
Reduction in FAK and p42/44 MAPK dependent phosphorylation Potential therapeutic target [69]
