The Tie2 signaling pathway in retinal vascular diseases: a novel therapeutic target in the eye.
Review in International journal of retina and vitreous, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 50 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundRetinal vascular diseases such as neovascular age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy and/or diabetic macular edema, and retinal vein occlusion with macular edema-share several key pathophysiologic aspects including neovascularization, vascular permeability, and inflammation. The role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in these processes, and the therapeutic benefits of VEGF inhibition, have been well characterized. Anti-VEGF therapy is highly effective for many patients but is not uniformly effective in all patients and imposes a significant treatment burden. More recently, the role of the Tie2 signaling pathway in the pathophysiology of retinal vascular diseases has been investigated, and the Tie2 pathway represents a novel therapeutic target for these conditions. AREAS COVERED: The index review describes the Tie2 pathway and its complementary role to the VEGF pathway in the angiogenesis cascade and will summarize studies of molecules in development to therapeutically modulate the Tie2 pathway in retinal vascular diseases.
conclusionsActivation of the Tie2 pathway leads to downstream signaling that promotes vascular health and stability and decreases vascular permeability and inflammation. AXT107 is a collagen IV-derived synthetic peptide with a dual mechanism of action that involves suppression of VEGF signaling and activation of the Tie2 pathway; these actions are accomplished by AXT107 binding to and disrupting different integrin, leading to blockade of the VEGF receptor and rearrangement of cellular Tie2 rendering it susceptible to Ang2 agonism. Other Tie2 agonist compounds are also in development, including faricimab and razuprotafib. Tie2 activation only modestly impacts angiogenesis on its own but significantly potentiates VEGF suppression. Co-regulation of the VEGF and Tie2 signaling pathways has the potential to improve functional and structural outcomes in eyes with retinal vascular diseases.
