Overexpressing ANXA2 or MPP1 for glaucoma
Increasing the activity of the cell membrane proteins ANXA2 or MPP1 in retinal ganglion cells could help treat glaucoma by stimulating optic nerve regeneration. A retrograde tracing technique to isolate regenerating and non-regenerating retinal ganglion cells for transcriptomic analysis identified multiple genes that potentiate the regenerative effects of PTEN deletion following optic nerve injury, including ANXA2 and MPP1...
