Cause, develop pharmacological treatment for reducing retinitis pigmentosa vision loss: Inhibiting ceramide accumulation in retina protects photoreceptors, improves vision - Science Daily

Researchers have discovered that the absence of Adiponectin receptor 1 protein (AdipoR1), one of the principal enzymes regulating ceramide homeostasis in the retina, leads to an accumulation of ceramides in the retina, resulting in progressive photoreceptor c…
