    SARM1 depletion rescues NMNAT1-dependent photoreceptor cell death and retinal degeneration

    Yo Sasaki, Hiroki Kakita ... Jeffrey Milbrandt
    A mouse model of retinal degeneration reveals a common mechanism for axonal degeneration and photoreceptor cell death and identifies SARM1 as a therapeutic candidate for retinopathies.

    Homeostatic plasticity in the retina is associated with maintenance of night vision during retinal degenerative disease

    Henri Leinonen, Nguyen C Pham ... Frans Vinberg
    Mouse retina manifests homeostatic plasticity and adapts to photoreceptor degeneration to resist visual decline.

    Impaired ABCA1/ABCG1-mediated lipid efflux in the mouse retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) leads to retinal degeneration

    Federica Storti, Katrin Klee ... Christian Grimm
    Lipid efflux by the retinal pigment epithelium is crucial for proper retinal integrity and function, and its impairment may contribute to diseases like age-related macular degeneration.

    Small molecule Photoregulin3 prevents retinal degeneration in the RhoP23H mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa

    Paul A Nakamura, Andy A Shimchuk ... Thomas A Reh
    Regulating rod gene expression with a small molecule ligand for the orphan nuclear receptor Nr2e3 rescues photoreceptors from degeneration in a mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa.

    Absence of TGFβ signaling in retinal microglia induces retinal degeneration and exacerbates choroidal neovascularization

    Wenxin Ma, Sean M Silverman ... Wai T Wong
    TGFβ signaling to retinal microglia is central to the regulation of neuroinflammatory responses relevant to age-related macular degeneration (AMD), a leading cause of blindness in the developed world.

    KIT ligand protects against both light-induced and genetic photoreceptor degeneration

    Huirong Li, Lili Lian ... Ling Hou
    A combination of in vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrate a cell-autonomous role of the KIT ligand/KIT signaling pathway in protecting retinal photoreceptor cells from environmentally or genetically caused degeneration.

    Quantitative transportomics identifies Kif5a as a major regulator of neurodegeneration

    Sahil H Shah, Lucio M Schiapparelli ... Jeffrey L Goldberg
    Transportomic analysis of the changes underlying neurodegeneration reveals the importance of Kif5a for neuronal survival and highlights the need to restore specific anterograde cargo transport to for regeneration.

    Proposed therapy, developed in a Pcdh15-deficient mouse, for progressive loss of vision in human Usher syndrome

    Saumil Sethna, Wadih M Zein ... Zubair M Ahmed
    A preclinical study using exogenous retinoids in a novel Usher syndrome 1F mouse model reveals a possible therapy to treat mutant PCDH15-mediated visual dysfunction.

    mTORC1-induced retinal progenitor cell overproliferation leads to accelerated mitotic aging and degeneration of descendent Müller glia

    Soyeon Lim, You-Joung Kim ... Jin Woo Kim
    Comprehensive mouse genetic analyses show, by having mTORC1 constitutively active, a RPC divides and exhausts mitotic capacity faster than neighboring RPCs, and thus produces retinal cells that degenerate with aging-related changes in the mature mouse retina.

    CCR1 mediates Müller cell activation and photoreceptor cell death in macular and retinal degeneration

    Sarah Elbaz-Hayoun, Batya Rinsky ... Itay Chowers
    A novel therapy for a common blinding retinal disease uses an innovative CCR1 blocking-based strategy.
