Background: Notch1 – Delta-like ligand 4 (Dll4) signaling pathway has a biological effect of negative feedback regulation to VEGF in retinal vascular development process. There are few studies on the inhibition of Notch1-Dll4 signaling pathway in ROP and the regulatory pathway of VEGF.Objective and hypotheses: 67-day-old mice were divided into oxygen-induced retinopathy group and control group. We took ten mice from each group at postnatal day 7 (p7...

Background: Notch1-Delta-like ligand 4 (Dll4) signalling pathway has a biological effect of negative feedback regulation to VEGF in retinal vascular development process. There are few studies on the inhibition of Notch1-Dll4 signalling pathway in ROP and the regulatory pathway of VEGF.Objective and hypotheses: To investigate the role that Notch1-DLL4 signal pathway played in the oxygen-induced retinal neovascularization of mice by analyzing the expressio...

Background: Management of transient neonatal diabetes mellitus is complex. Conventional insulin therapy may be increase additional medical problems. From the case is presented, We suggested s.c. insulin pump therapy of neonatal diabetes is a safe and effective approach to management.Objective and hypotheses: To evaluate the therapeutic effect of continuous s.c. insulin infusion with insulin pump in a case with transient neonatal diabetes mellitus (TNDM)....
