Expression of 8-oxoguanine DNA glycosylase (Ogg1) in mouse retina.
2009
Purpose
The retina is highly exposed to oxidative stress due to the high level of oxygen consumption in this tissue and its exposure to light. The main DNA base lesion generated by oxygen free radicals is 8-oxoguanine (8-oxoG). However, its presence in retinal cells and the mechanisms underlying its repair remain undetermined.
