GENE - TERM ANNOTATION REPORT

RGD ID: 2279
Species: Rattus norvegicus
RGD Object: Gene
Symbol: Cat
Name: catalase
Acc ID: DOID:13207
Term: proliferative diabetic retinopathy
Definition: This advanced, severe stage of diabetic retinopathy mainly occurs when many of the blood vessels in the retina close, preventing sufficient blood flow. In an attempt to supply blood to the area where the original vessels closed, the retina responds by growing new blood vessels, which is called neovascularization.
Note: Use of the qualifier "multiple interactions" designates that the annotated interaction is comprised of a complex set of reactions and/or regulatory events, possibly involving additional chemicals and/or gene products.
