mTOR activity is essential for retinal pigment epithelium regeneration in zebrafish
2021-06-01
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) plays numerous critical roles in maintaining vision and this is underscored by the prevalence of degenerative blinding diseases like age-related macular degeneration (AMD), in which visual impairment is caused by progressive loss of RPE cells. In contrast to mammals, zebrafish possess the ability to intrinsically regenerate a functional RPE layer after severe...
