ncRNA name | mTOR siRNA |
ncRNA Category | siRNA |
Disease name | proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR) |
Species | Oryctolagus cuniculus |
Tissues/Cell_line | retinas |
Methods | siRNA injection, fundus photography |
Expression pattern | associated |
Functional description | Decreasing mTOR expression by about 82% using small interfering RNA resulted in a significant decrease in cell spreading and migration. Whereas retinal detachment occurred in 100% of the control group animals, co-injection of the mTOR specific siRNA substantially reduced the severity and incidence (50%) of retinal detachments. |
