Photoreceptors Degenerate Through Pyroptosis After Experimental Retinal Detachment
22 Jul 2020
Abstract excerpt
Purpose: Gasdermin D (GSDMD) is crucial in neuronal pyroptosis. GSDMD-N and GSDMD-C are two subdomains of the protein GSDMD. GSDMD-N is an executor of pyroptosis, and GSDMD-C has an inhibitory effect on pyroptotic cell death. This study evaluated the role of GSDMD in photoreceptor cell pyroptosis caused by retinal detachment (RD). Methods: RD models were established in rats, and GSDMD cleavage was detected by...
