CNG Channel-Related Retinopathy Explained (Phototransduction in Retina) | Originals

Welcome to Science With Tal!

In this video, we will cover the phototransduction pathway in the retina and discuss what a mutation in CNG channels can lead to in cones and rods. We will also briefly cover gene therapy and how this treatment could help cure diseases caused by CNG channel mutations.

To improve the quality of my content, I highly value the feedback from the viewer so do not hesitate to give any feedback in the comment section.
