Restoring Retinal Function Through Targeted VLC-PUFA Supplementation

Significance Figure: Metascape analysis demonstrated down-regulation of immune response, inflammation, microglial phagocytosis, and cell migration pathways after 24:5n-3 supplementation. The network plot visualizes functionally grouped enriched terms, where each node represents a biological pathway or process. Node size reflects the number of genes associated with each term, and node color indicates statistical significance, with darker colors representing lower P values. Image credit: …
