Hereditary retinal disease (HRD) is the primary retinal degeneration that leads to severe visual impairments and refractory blindness, and the therapy of HRD was most important in ophthalmology. The apoptosis of retinal cells plays important roles in HRD progression. Therefore, in this study, we explore the mechanism of H2O2 and blue light-induced apoptosis of ARPE-19 cells. Co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP) is employed to test the interactions between proteins, and western blotting is used to detect the protein levels. Apoptosis is analyzed by Flow cytometry. Our results found that PRDX6 could interact with RARA in ARPE-19 cells, and H2O2 and blue light could significantly reduce the RARA protein expression, and also could inhibit the interaction between PRDX6 and RARA. Using a rescue experiment, we further elucidated that H2O2 and blue light reduced the RARA expression via down-regulating PRDX6. And H2O2 and blue light induced the ARPE-19 cell apoptosis via decreasing the expression of PRDX6. Our results suggested that the interaction between PRDX6 and RARA played important roles in the apoptosis of ARPE-19 cells.
