ncRNA name | RhoA siRNA |
ncRNA Category | siRNA |
Disease name | glaucoma |
Species | Mus musculus |
Tissues/Cell_line | mouse embryonic fibroblast cell line NIH3T3; TM tissues |
Methods | siRNA transfection and injection, qPCR, Western blot, immunohistochemical and H&E staining |
Expression pattern | associated |
Functional description | (1) siRNA injection into the anterior chamber leads to transient gene transfection in TM; (2) inhibiting RhoA expression in TM with siRNA is effective in suppressing elevated IOP in mice, suggesting that siRhoA is a potential pharmaceutical intervention for glaucoma. |
