Neurotransmitter-Regulated Regeneration in the Zebrafish Retina
Current efforts to repair damaged or diseased mammalian retinas are inefficient and largely incapable of fully restoring vision. Conversely, the zebrafish retina is capable of spontaneous regeneration upon damage using Müller glia (MG)-derived progenitors. Understanding how zebrafish MG initiate regeneration may help develop new treatments that prompt mammalian retinas to regenerate. We show th...
متن کاملCharacterization of Light Lesion Paradigms and Optical Coherence Tomography as Tools to Study Adult Retina Regeneration in Zebrafish
Light-induced lesions are a powerful tool to study the amazing ability of photoreceptors to regenerate in the adult zebrafish retina. However, the specificity of the lesion towards photoreceptors or regional differences within the retina are still incompletely understood. We therefore characterized the process of degeneration and regeneration in an established paradigm, using intense white ligh...
متن کاملParallel visual cycles in the zebrafish retina.
Vertebrate vision necessitates continuous recycling of the chromophore 11-cis retinal (RAL). The classical (or canonical) visual cycle employs a number of enzymes located in the photoreceptor outer segment and RPE (retinal pigment epithelium) of the retina to regenerate 11-cis RAL from all-trans RAL. Cone-dominant species are believed to utilize a second, intra-retinal, pathway for 11-cis RAL g...
متن کاملSelective regeneration of photoreceptors in goldfish retina.
Previous work has shown that the neural retina in adult goldfish can regenerate. Following retinal damage elicited by surgical or cytotoxic lesions, missing neurons are replaced by foci of proliferating neuroepithelial cells, which previous studies have suggested are derived from rod precursors. In the intact retina, rod precursors proliferate but produce only new rods. The regenerative respons...
