This study reports on the pathological significance of the vitreous fatty acid-binding protein (Vt-FABP) 4 and 5, and vascular endothelial growth factor A (Vt-VEGFA) in patients with retinal vascular diseases (RVDs) including proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) and retinal vein occlusion (RVO). Here, VEGFA is linked to proliferative diabetic retinopathy.
