Activation of Survival Pathways In The Degenerating Retina of rd10 Mice
An interesting article was published in Experimental Eye Research by Marijana Samardzija, Hedwig Wariwoda, Cornelia Imsand, Philipp Huber, Severin R. Heynen, Andrea Gubler and Christian Grimm that examines survival pathways that are induced in the retinas of rd10 mice. Dynamics of retinal degeneration in the rd10 mouse was also examined including an analysis of retinal vasculature and …
