Clinical evidence of sustained chronic inflammatory reaction in retinitis pigmentosa.

TL;DR: Sustained chronic inflammatory reaction may underlie the pathogenesis of RP, suggesting interventions for ocular inflammatory reaction as a potential treatment for patients with RP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Laboratory Evidence of Sustained Chronic Inflammatory Reaction in Retinitis Pigmentosa

TL;DR: Sustained chronic inflammatory reaction may contribute to the pathogenesis of retinal degeneration in rd10 mice, suggesting interventions for ocular inflammatory reaction using antioxidants as a potential treatment for patients with RP.
Journal ArticleDOI

Astrocyte-Mediated Ischemic Tolerance

TL;DR: It is shown that astrocytes play an essential role in the induction of brain ischemic tolerance, and that upregulation of P2X7 receptors in astroCytes is essential, and the results suggest that hypoxia-inducible factor-1α, a well known mediator of ischeic tolerance, is involved in P2x7 receptor-mediated ischeMIC tolerance.

Dynamic Increase in Extracellular ATP Accelerates Photoreceptor Cell Apoptosis via Ligation of P2RX7 in Subretinal Hemorrhage

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that neovascular AMD with subretinal hemorrhage accompanies a significant increase in extracellular ATP, and that extracllular ATP initiates neurodegenerative processes through specific ligation of Purinergic receptor P2X, ligand-gated ion channel, 7 (P2RX7; P2 X7 receptor).
