Newest firstAberrant wound healing in the retina can manifest as proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), which involves the myofibroblast transdifferentiation of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells. In this study, experiments were conducted to examine the structure-activity relationships of endocannabinoid-like compounds, N-acyl dopamines, on the myofibroblast transdifferentiation of RPE cells. The collagen matrix contracti…

The loss of central vision results from attenuated maintenance of photoreceptors due to the degeneration of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cells beneath the photoreceptor layer.
