Activation of the TRAAK two-pore domain potassium channels in rd1 mice protects photoreceptor cells from apoptosis

AIM: To investigate the expression of TWIK-related arachidonic acid-stimulated K+ channel (TRAAK) in retinal degeneration mice (rd1) and further evaluate how TRAAK affect photoreceptor cell apoptosis. METHODS: The rd1 mice were distributed into blank (no treatment), control (1.4% DMSO, intraperiton...
