Phagocytosis-dependent ketogenesis in retinal pigment epithelium
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2017 Daily, the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) ingests a bolus of lipid and protein in the form of phagocytized photoreceptor outer segments (OS). The RPE, like the liver, expresses enzymes required for fatty acid oxidation and ketogenesis.

Superior cervical gangliectomy induces non-exudative age-related macular degeneration in mice
Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2018 Non-exudative age-related macular degeneration, a prevalent cause of blindness, is a progressive and degenerative disease characterized by alterations in Bruch's membrane, retinal pigment epithelium, and photoreceptors exclusively localized in the macula.

Intrinsic signal optoretinography of dark adaptation abnormality due to rod degeneration [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Significance: Multiple eye diseases such as age-related macular degeneration, diabetic retinopathy, and retinitis pigmentosa can cause photoreceptor dysfunction. Rod photoreceptors are known to be more vulnerable than cone photoreceptors. Therefore, functional assessment of rod photoreceptors is important for early detection of eye diseases.
