It exerts multiple effects directly through activation of its related receptors and indirectly through increases in the synthesis of activity-dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP).

Accumulating evidence has reported the role of microRNA (miR) on diabetic retinopathy (DR). Thus, the aim of the study was to investigate the effect of exosomal miR-17-3p targeting signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) on inflammatory reaction and antioxidant injury of DR mice. A mouse diabetes model was established and injecte...
