        Nc2Eye

           A curated ncRNAomics knowledgebase for bridging basic and clinical research in eye diseases.

Detail of autoimmune uveitis
ncRNA name CRABP-II siRNA
ncRNA Category siRNA
Disease name autoimmune uveitis
Species Mus musculus
Tissues/Cell_line RPE cells
Methods flow cytometry, ELISA, microarray, qRT-PCR, siRNA transfection
Expression pattern associated
Functional description Our data support the hypothesis that RPE cells produce RA, thereby enabling bystander T cells to be converted into Tregs through TGFβ promotion, which can then participate in the establishment of immune tolerance in the eye. RA receptor antagonist-pretreated or RA-binding protein-siRNA-transfected RPE cells failed to convert CD4(+) T cells into Tregs.
