Accumulation of of iron in Cptm1Hrs/Cptm1Hrs Hephsla/Y retinal pigment epithelium and photoreceptors
|
|
• retinas exhibit increased iron at 5-6 months of age, with highest levels in the RPE and photoreceptor outer segments
(J:92620)
• levels of the cytosolic iron storage protein ferritin are increased in retinas
(J:92620)

|
|
|
• retinas exhibit increased iron at 5-6 months of age, with highest levels in the RPE and photoreceptor outer segments
