Activation of NF-κB signaling via cytosolic mitochondrial RNA sensing in kerotocytes with mitochondrial DNA common deletion

Abstract excerpt

Scar formation as a result of corneal wound healing is a leading cause of blindness. It is a challenge to understand why scar formation is more likely to occur in the central part of the cornea as compared to the peripheral part. The purpose of this study was to unravel the underlying mechanisms. We applied RNA-seq to uncover the differences of expression profile in keratocytes in the central/peripheral part of...
