Abstract excerpt
Retinitis Pigmentosa represents a group of genetic disorders that cause progressive vision loss via degeneration of photoreceptors, but there is in principle no treatment available. For any therapy development, a deeper comprehension of the disease-leading mechanism(s) at the molecular level is needed. Here we focused on the cGMP-PKG system, which has been suggested to be a driver in several models of the...
