Here, we show that platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-B/PDGF receptor beta (PDGFRβ) signalling is critical in formation and maturation of BRB through active recruitment of pericytes onto growing retinal vessels. Impaired pericyte recruitment to the vessels shows multiple vascular hallmarks of diabetic retinopathy (DR) due to BRB disruption. However, PDGF-B/PDGFRβ signalling is expendable for maintaining BRB integrity in adult mice. Although selective pericyte loss in stable adult retinal vessels surprisingly does not cause BRB disintegration, it sensitizes retinal vascular endothelial cells (ECs) to VEGF-A, leading to upregulation of angiopoietin-2 (Ang2) in ECs through FOXO1 activation and triggering a positive feedback that resembles the pathogenesis of DR. Accordingly, either blocking Ang2 or activating Tie2 greatly attenuates BRB breakdown, suggesting potential therapeutic approaches to reduce retinal damages upon DR progression. 000124246 536__ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-321$$a321 - Basic Concepts (POF3-321)$$cPOF3-321$$fPOF III$$x0 000124246 588__ $$aDataset connected to CrossRef, PubMed, 000124246 7001_ $$aLee, Junyeop$$b1 000124246 7001_ $$aKim, Jaeryung$$b2 000124246 7001_ $$aKim, Kangsan$$b3 000124246 7001_ $$aHong, Seonpyo$$b4 000124246 7001_ $$aHan, Sangyeul$$b5 000124246 7001_ $$aKubota, Yoshiaki$$b6 000124246 7001_ $$00000-0002-7173-4242$$aAugustin, Hellmut G$$b7 000124246 7001_ $$aDing, Lei$$b8 000124246 7001_ $$aKim, Jin Woo$$b9 000124246 7001_ $$aKim, Hail$$b10 000124246 7001_ $$00000-0002-0099-3749$$aHe, Yulong$$b11 000124246 7001_ $$00000-0003-3031-7677$$aAdams, Ralf H$$b12 000124246 7001_ $$00000-0002-1231-1485$$aKoh, Gou Young$$b13 000124246 773__ $$0PERI:(DE-600)2553671-0$$a10.1038/ncomms15296$$gVol. 8, p. 15296 -$$p15296 -$$tNature Communications$$v8$$x2041-1723$$y2017 000124246 909CO $$ooai:inrepo02.dkfz.de:124246$$pVDB 000124246 9101_ $$0I:(DE-588b)2036810-0$$60000-0002-7173-4242$$aDeutsches Krebsforschungszentrum$$b7$$kDKFZ 000124246 9131_ $$0G:(DE-HGF)POF3-321$$1G:(DE-HGF)POF3-320$$2G:(DE-HGF)POF3-300$$3G:(DE-HGF)POF3$$4G:(DE-HGF)POF$$aDE-HGF$$bGesundheit$$lHerz-Kreislauf-Stoffwechselerkrankungen$$vBasic Concepts$$x0 000124246 9141_ $$y2017 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0100$$2StatID$$aJCR$$bNAT COMMUN : 2015 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0200$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bSCOPUS 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0300$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bMedline 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0310$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bNCBI Molecular Biology Database 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0501$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bDOAJ Seal 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0500$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bDOAJ 000124246 915__ $$0LIC:(DE-HGF)CCBYNV$$2V:(DE-HGF)$$aCreative Commons Attribution CC BY (No Version)$$bDOAJ 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0199$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bThomson Reuters Master Journal List 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0110$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bWeb of Science Core Collection 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)0111$$2StatID$$aWoS$$bScience Citation Index Expanded 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1060$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bCurrent Contents - Agriculture, Biology and Environmental Sciences 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1030$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bCurrent Contents - Life Sciences 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1150$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bCurrent Contents - Physical, Chemical and Earth Sciences 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1040$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bZoological Record 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)1050$$2StatID$$aDBCoverage$$bBIOSIS Previews 000124246 915__ $$0StatID:(DE-HGF)9910$$2StatID$$aIF >= 10$$bNAT COMMUN : 2015 000124246 9201_ $$0I:(DE-He78)A190-20160331$$kA190$$lVaskuläre Onkologie und Metastasierung$$x0 000124246 980__ $$ajournal 000124246 980__ $$aVDB 000124246 980__ $$aI:(DE-He78)A190-20160331 000124246 980__ $$aUNRESTRICTED
