General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | calpain-1 and calpain-2 play opposite roles in retinal ganglion cell death induced by acute intraocular pressure elevation. Calpain-1 activity supports survival of retinal ganglion cell after intraocular pressure elevation. Calpain-2 activity promotes cell death of retinal ganglion cells after intraocular pressure elevation. Calpain-2 activation cleaves striatal-enriched protein tyrosine phosphatase and activates STEP-mediated pro-death pathway in retinal ganglion cells after intraocular pressure elevation | Mus musculus |
