CSF-1R haploinsufficiency causes adult-onset leukoencephalopathy with axonal spheroids and pigmented glia (ALSP). Previous studies in the Csf1r+/- mouse model of ALSP hypothesized a central role of elevated cerebral Csf2 expression. Here, we show that monoallelic deletion of Csf2 rescues most behavioral deficits

Leakage of retinal blood vessels, which is an essential element of diabetic retinopathy, is driven by chronic elevation of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). VEGF quickly relaxes the endothelial cell barrier by triggering signaling events that post-translationally modify pre-existing components
