Further analysis of our RNA sequencing data [17] confirmed significant decrease in the relative expression of SKI, GTF2H4, and TNXB transcripts in RPE (n = 5) donor samples from AMD patients when compared with controls (n = 7) (Additional file 2: Figure S7, Additional file 1: Table S2). Here, GTF2H4 is linked to age-related macular degeneration.
