Oxidative stress facilitates exogenous mitochondria internalization and survival in retinal ganglion precursor-like cells
24 Mar 2022
Abstract excerpt
Ocular cells are highly dependent on mitochondrial function due to their high demand of energy supply and their constant exposure to oxidative stress. Indeed, mitochondrial dysfunction is highly implicated in various acute, chronic, and genetic disorders of the visual system. It has recently been shown that mitochondrial transplantation (MitoPlant) temporarily protects retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) from cell...
