Our study found that none of the circulating inflammation-related factors were changed in PVR or RRD patients, indicating the absence of a system inflammatory biomarkers to predict the development of proliferative vitreoretinopathy. As a supplement to previous research, the concentrations of PDGF-AA, TGF-α, VEGF, IL-6, IL-8, and TNFβ were significantly upregulated in the vitreous of PVR patients. These factors should be considered for preventing PVR.
