The role of interferon regulatory factor 8 for retinal tissue homeostasis and development of choroidal neovascularisation
20 Sept 2021
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Microglia cells represent the resident innate immune cells of the retina and are important for retinal development and tissue homeostasis. However, dysfunctional microglia can have a negative impact on the structural and functional integrity of the retina under native and pathological conditions.
