Pigment epithelium-derived factor hinders photoreceptor cell death by reducing intracellular calcium in the degenerating retina

Calcium ions play a critical role in neuronal cell death. Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is a promising neuroprotective protein for photoreceptor cells but the mechanisms mediating its effects against retinal degeneration are still not well characterized. We addressed this question in the...
