Substrate stiffness and pressure alter retinal Müller glia response and extracellular matrix production

[Background] The retina is highly influenced by its mechanical environment, with Müller glia (MG) acting as key mechanosensors and extracellular matrix (ECM) producers. This study examined MG responses to substrate stiffness and high pressure (HP), and whether TGF-β1 modulation could mitigate these...

Resumo:[Background] The retina is highly influenced by its mechanical environment, with Müller glia (MG) acting as key mechanosensors and extracellular matrix (ECM) producers. This study examined MG responses to substrate stiffness and high pressure (HP), and whether TGF-β1 modulation could mitigate these effects.
