Inhibitory Peptide of Mitochondrial μ-Calpain Protects against Photoreceptor Degeneration in Rhodopsin Transgenic S334ter and P23H Rats

Mitochondrial μ-calpain and apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF)-dependent photoreceptor cell death has been seen in several rat and mouse models of retinitis pigmentosa (RP). Previously, we demonstrated that the specific peptide inhibitor of mitochondrial μ-calpain, Tat-µCL, protected against retinal de...
