Abstract
These observations indicate that modification of FN by alpha-dicarbonyl compounds triggers apoptosis through a combination of increased oxidative stress and reduction of alphaB-crystallin. This mechanism may contribute to loss of pericytes in diabetic retinopathy and contribute to the resultant vascular lesions.
