Ceramide is a Mediator of Apoptosis in Retina Photoreceptors [PDF]
, 2006 PURPOSE. The precise mechanisms involved in photoreceptor apoptosis are still unclear. We here investigated the role of ceramide, a sphingolipid precursor that induces apoptosis upon cellular stress, in activating this death in photoreceptors.

The role of mislocalized phototransduction in photoreceptor cell death of retinitis pigmentosa.
PLoS ONE, 2012 Most of inherited retinal diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa (RP) cause photoreceptor cell death resulting in blindness. RP is a large family of diseases in which the photoreceptor cell death can be caused by a number of pathways.

Circadian Photoentrainment in Mice and Humans
Biology, 2020 Light around twilight provides the primary entrainment signal for circadian rhythms. Here we review the mechanisms and responses of the mouse and human circadian systems to light.

Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2021 Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) and macular dystrophy (MD) are characterized by gradual photoreceptor death in the retina and are often associated with genetic mutations, including those in the prominin-1 (Prom1) gene. Prom1-knockout (KO) mice recapitulate key

Photoreceptor Inner Segment Morphology in Best Vitelliform Macular Dystrophy [PDF]
, 2016 PURPOSE To characterize outer retina structure in best vitelliform macular dystrophy (BVMD) and to determine the effect of macular lesions on overlying and adjacent photoreceptors.

Phosphoinositide Profile of the Mouse Retina
Cells, 2020 Phosphoinositides are known to play multiple roles in eukaryotic cells. Although dysregulation of phosphoinositide metabolism in the retina has been reported to cause visual dysfunction in animal models and human patients, our understanding of the ...

Docosahexaenoic acid promotes photoreceptor differentiation without altering Crx expression [PDF]
, 2006 PURPOSE: The precise molecular cues required for photoreceptor development are still unknown. Pax6 and Crx are essential during early retinal development and for photoreceptor differentiation, respectively.
