Molecular Pathway to Protection From Age-Dependent Photoreceptor Degeneration in Mef2 Deficiency
24 Jul 2017
Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Photoreceptor degeneration in the retina is a major cause of blindness in humans. Elucidating mechanisms of degenerative and neuroprotective pathways in photoreceptors should afford identification and development of therapeutic strategies. Methods: We used mouse genetic models and improved methods for retinal explant cultures. Retinas were enucleated from Mef2d+/+ and Mef2d-/- mice, stained for MEF2...
