Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1) is a non-selective cation channel its endogenous agonists include mediators released during inflammatory and degenerative processes (e.g. lipid peroxidation products, free radicals, fatty acids). Upon activation, Ca2+ influx occurs, which influences intracellular processes and plays an important role in modulating degeneration, inflammation or apoptosis. Literature data suggests that TRPA1 is found in the cornea, the retina and the optic nerve. Our aim is to investigate whether TRPA1 contributes to cornea, retina and optic nerve damage in mouse models of various ocular diseases using complex pharmacokinetic, functional-morphological and molecular biological methods. A deeper understanding of the mechanisms underlying these diseases may bring us closer to identifying new therapeutic targets.
