RCCN2

RCCN2, also known as Retinal Non-Coding Nucleotide 2, is a long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) identified in the retina. Its precise function is still under investigation, but research suggests it plays a role in cellular processes within the retinal tissue. LncRNAs are a class of RNA molecules that are not translated into proteins but are involved in various regulatory mechanisms.

Studies have indicated that RCCN2 may be involved in the development and maintenance of retinal cells. Its expression levels have been observed to vary under different physiological and pathological conditions. For instance, some research points to its potential involvement in photoreceptor differentiation or survival. The specific molecular pathways through which RCCN2 exerts its effects are an active area of scientific inquiry. Understanding the role of RCCN2 could potentially offer insights into retinal diseases and the development of novel therapeutic strategies. Further research is ongoing to elucidate its full spectrum of biological activities and its significance in ocular health.
