        Nc2Eye

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

Detail of retinitis pigmentosa (RP)
ncRNA name BET2 siRNA
ncRNA Category siRNA
Disease name retinitis pigmentosa (RP)
Species Mus musculus
Tissues/Cell_line N9 microglial cells
Methods siRNA transfection, Western blot, qRT-PCR
Expression pattern associated
Functional description BET inhibition rescues photoreceptor degeneration likely via the suppression of microglial activation. siRNA knockdown of BET2 but not BET4, and the inhibitor of Brom2 (RVX208) but not of Brom1 (Olinone), decreased microglial activation.
PubMed ID 28103888
Year 2017
Title Photoreceptor protection via blockade of BET epigenetic readers in a murine model of inherited retinal degeneration
Drug-related ncRNA NO
