  • Sfrp2 is highly expressed in the retina following ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury.
  • Sfrp2 localizes in microglia in the I/R model.
  • Microglial Sfrp2 deficiency worsens retinal damage, neuronal degeneration, and inflammation in I/R.
  • Sfrp2 deficiency activates the TRAF6-TAK1-NF-κB signaling pathway, increasing inflammatory mediator S100a8.
  • S100a8 inhibitor partially mitigates retinal injury caused by Sfrp2 deficiency.
  • Sfrp2 in microglia protects the retina by inhibiting neuroinflammation in I/R.
