Glutathione-dependent formaldehyde dehydrogenase (ADH3) and low km mitochondrial aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH2). New evidence for differential expression in the rat retina in response to oxidative stress

Changes in the GSH and GSH enzymatic system, and in the ADH3 and ALDH2 retinal expression and distribution might be crucial in assessing the intrinsic mechanisms of LPO-mediated retinopathies. Further research is needed to evaluate these findings and their application to new ophthalmological therapy.
