Carnosic acid slows photoreceptor degeneration in the Pde6brd10 mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa
The photoreceptor cell death associated with the various genetic forms of retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is currently untreatable and leads to partial or complete vision loss. Carnosic acid (CA) upregulates endogenous antioxidant enzymes and has proven neuroprotective in studies of neurodegenerative mode...
