Molecular mechanisms underlying inherited photoreceptor degeneration as targets for therapeutic intervention
2 Feb 2024
Abstract excerpt
Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a form of retinal degeneration characterized by primary degeneration of rod photoreceptors followed by a secondary cone loss that leads to vision impairment and finally blindness. This is a rare disease with mutations in several genes and high genetic heterogeneity. A challenging effort has been the characterization of the molecular mechanisms underlying photoreceptor cell death...
