Several preclinical data support a main role of Muller glia, a type of retinal glial cells, in sensing hyperglycemia and, subsequently, acquiring a pro-inflammatory polarization during diabetic retinopathy onset and progression. Recently, we reported that stimulation of rat Muller glia cells (rMC1) with high glucose triggers a very early (<β15Β min) and atypical signaling cascade, regulated by a Ca Show less
