Generation of a Transgenic Rabbit Model of Retinal Degeneration
25 Feb 2009
Abstract excerpt
PURPOSE: To generate a transgenic (Tg) rabbit model of retinal degeneration and to characterize the pattern of degeneration by using histology and electrophysiology. METHODS: Rhodopsin Pro347Leu Tg rabbits were generated by BAC transgenesis. Tg rabbits were identified by Southern blot analysis, and the expression levels were measured by quantitative RT-PCR. Retinal histology was examined by light and electron...
