Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a group of sight-threatening genetic diseases characterized by progressive degeneration of photoreceptors, leading to severe vision loss from childhood to adulthood. With limited treatment options, understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying RP is crucial. Evidence points to increased DNA methylation, especially in degenerating photoreceptors, as a contributing factor to retinal damage in RP. To exploit the molecular insights into methylation-driven pathways...
