We previously demonstrated that 350 bp of the human rod cGMP phosphodiesterase beta-subunit (beta-PDE) gene promoter are sufficient to direct high levels of gene expression in human Y-79 retinoblastoma cells in vitro. In this study the cell specifici

We evaluated adeno-associated virus (AAV)-mediated gene transfer of basic fibroblast growth factor (FGF-2) as a therapy for photoreceptor degeneration in a transgenic rat model of retinitis pigmentosa.Recombinant adeno-associated virus vector (rAAV)

To determine the extent to which rhodopsin mis-sorting and constitutive activation of the phototransduction cascade contribute to retinal degeneration in a transgenic rat model of retinitis pigmentosa.Retinas from transgenic rats expressing truncated

We have examined eyes from a heterozygote (carrier) of choroideremia, an X-linked disease. Gross examination revealed irregular pigmentation at the level of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) except at the posterior pole, and islands of well define

Unexplained physical distress, when associated with alexithymia, becomes a diagnostic puzzle leading to prolonged investigation, ineffective treatment, and psychiatric referral. The persistent, often almost indescribable quality of the distress sugge

The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is responsible for transport of retinol from the choroidal circulation to the photoreceptors. In the intact eye, this process is mediated by membrane receptors for plasma retinol binding protein (RBP) distributed

To further examine the endogenous rhythm of disc shedding and phagocytosis observed in several species, adult Xenopus were entrained to a 12 hr light/12 hr dark cycle and then placed in constant darkness. At various times during a 3-day period of con

The eyes of a 17-year-old male donor who was affected with autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa with variable expressivity have recently become available for study. Initial macroscopic examination of the fundus revealed bone spicules located in 18

Quantitative electron microscope immunocytochemistry, employing an antibody specific to opsin, was used to evaluate the amount and location of opsin in Rana pipiens rod photoreceptors throughout a 24 hr light/dark cycle. We found a distinct diurnal r

The concentration of cGMP, cAMP, protein and the number of cone and rod photoreceptors have been measured in parallel arrays of punches, 3 mm in diameter, taken from each quadrant of normal human retinas. A separate punch containing the fovea and par
