Inherited retinal degeneration: T-type voltage-gated channels, Na <sup>+</sup> /Ca <sup>2+</sup> -exchanger and calpain-2 promote photoreceptor cell death
2023-07-18
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Inherited retinal degeneration (IRD) refers to a group of untreatable blinding diseases characterized by a progressive loss of photoreceptors. IRD pathology is often linked to an excessive activation of cyclic nucleotide-gated channels (CNGC) leading to Na + – and Ca 2+ -influx, subsequent activation of voltage-gated Ca 2+ -channels (VGCC), and further Ca 2+ influx. However, whether and how...
