Great collaboration between the labs of Katie Kindt (NIDCD) and Wei Li (NEI).

Substantial changes since the preprint, including a new url to our interactive plotter: github.com/angueyraLab/drRNAseq/ & https://angueyralab.github.io/drRNAseq/lab/
Go check them out. There are several datasets to be explored in there and hopefully more to come.

How #photoreceptors die in #retinitispigmentosa using #scRNAseq, proteomics & quantitative imaging with slow #RPGR & fast #PDE6B mouse models- understanding early and late disease mechanisms! Great talk by Fay Newton, postdoc extraordinaire funded by Fight for Sight UK in Megaw/Mill labs at MRC HGU, University of Edinburgh. #ukcilia2023 /7

This #EMmonday we’re looking at microvesicle release from inner segments of #photoreceptors. #TEM image shows microvesicle next to endocytic, clathrin-coated pit.

Meet Dr Tylor Lewis, postdoc in Dr Vadim Arshavsky's lab @dukeeyecenter @DukeHealth & first author of a new paper exploring #microvesicle release from healthy #photoreceptors, which is amplified in inherited #VisualDiseases
Read his interview and research article below:

Definitely one of my favorites was https://biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.11.10.516020v1 from Dr.

studying the mechanism of 'disc' recycling of #photoreceptors likely revealed a likely mechanism of #retinitispigmentosa, which causes blindness.

In a remarkable biological feat, #photoreceptors regrow their #OuterSegments every week, to ensure normal vision. Our sub-tomogram averaging studies definitively show that #actin filaments extend into newly forming discs to regulate this process. /3
