Foxp3 expression by retinal pigment epithelial cells: transcription factor with potential relevance for the pathology of age-related macular degeneration

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Ahmad Samir Alfaar from the Institute of Health, Humboldt-University, Berlin, Germany have published the article: FoxP3 expression by retinal pigment epithelial cells: transcription factor with potential relevance for the pathology of age-related macular degeneration, in the Journal: (JOURNAL)
  • what: By analogy to FoxP3 + Tregs that play a critical role in immune tolerance and chronic stress, which promotes a pro-inflammatory phenotype, the authors propose that FoxP3 induces regulatory functions of the RPE as a part of its role in maintaining the outer blood-retina barrier function. The aim of this study was . . .
