Project description:Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is an inherited eye disease that causes progressive vision loss.To investigate the biological processes and molecular changes that occur in different cell types in the retinas in rd1 mice, a mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa, we performed single-cell RNA-seq to examine the transcriptomes of various retinal cells.
Project description:Recessive retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is often caused by nonsense mutations that lead to low mRNA levels as a result of nonsense-mediated decay. Some RP genes are expressed at detectable levels in leukocytes as well as in the retina. We designed a microarray-based method to find recessive RP genes based on low lymphoblast mRNA expression levels Keywords: Recessive mutations; mRNA expression; nonsense mediated-decay; retinitis pigmentosa; lymphocyte; Affymetrix genechip Human Genome U133Plus2.0.
Project description:Experiment to examine the miRNA profiles in the retina compared to the brain and other body regions. A comparison of a wild type C57 mouse retina versus a retina from a mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa (Pro347Ser) was under taken.
Project description:A Drosophila mutant for the splicing factor Prp31 was generated and characterized as a model for Retinitis pigmentosa 11. The transcriptome of the mutant was compared to the genetic control white.

Project description:The retinal transcriptome of two non-allelic forms of retinitis pigmentosa (RP) in dogs, RCD1 and XLPRA2, was analyzed at clinically relevant advanced stages of the two diseases and compared to that of adult normal dogs.
