Epigenetic Modifications in the Retinal Pigment Epithelium of the Eye During RPE-Related Regeneration or Retinal Diseases in Vertebrates by Eleonora Grigoryan, Yuliya Markitantova

“…The retinal RPE-dependent pathologies in mammals are characterized by different epigenetic signatures, and have a shared characteristic: specifically, a deficient epigenetic landscape (dysregulations in DNA methylation and histone modifications). Knowledge of the patterns and features of the epigenetic regulation of RPE cell behavior will allow us to obtain RPE cells that are in demand in medicine, from direct reprogramming with the possibility of epigenetically maintaining the cellular identities to the creation of neuro-regenerative technologies for the replacement therapy of RPE-dependent retinal pathologies in humans.…”
