Lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 1 controls the mitochondrial reactive oxygen species generation and survival of the retinal photoreceptor cells
2021-10-07
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Due to the high energy demands and characteristic morphology, retinal photoreceptor cells require a specialized lipid metabolism for survival and function. Accordingly, dysregulation of lipid metabolism leads to the photoreceptor cell death and retinal degeneration. Mice with a frameshift mutation of lysophosphatidylcholine acyltransferase 1 ( Lpcat1 ), which produces saturated phosphatidylchol...
