Abstract excerpt
PRPH2 mutations cause inherited retinal dystrophies (IRDs), but how photoreceptor outer segment (OS) disruption reshapes the surrounding retina remains unclear. Using a heterozygous Prph2C213Y/+ mouse model generated by CRISPR/Cas9, we characterized age-related retinal pathology and responses of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and Müller glia. Independent age- and sex-matched cohorts were examined at 1, 3, and...
