Expression and localization of GPR109A (PUMA-G/HM74A) mRNA and protein in mammalian retinal pigment epithelium

PURPOSE: GPR109A has been identified as a G-protein-coupled receptor for niacin. β-hydroxybutyrate (β-HB) is a physiologic ligand for the receptor. β-HB, the predominate ketone body in circulation, is an important energy source for neurons, including retinal neurons, under various physiologic and pa...
