Free swimming zebrafish larvae depend mainly on their sense of vision to evade predation
and to catch prey. Hence, there is strong selective pressure on the fast maturation of visual …

A hallmark of inherited retinal degenerative diseases such as retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is
progressive structural and functional remodeling of the remaining retinal cells as …

The male abnormal gene family contains 3 members, named mab21l1, mab21l2 and
mab21l3. Since their first discovery in C. elegans, homologues of mab21l1 and mab21l2 …

Purpose The axonal projections of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) of the eye are
topographically organized so that spatial information from visual images is preserved. This …

Mammalian retinas comprise a variety of interneurons, among which amacrine cells
represent the largest group, with more than 30 different cell types each exhibiting a rather …

Abstract mab21l1 and mab21l2 paralogs have widespread and dynamic expression
patterns during vertebrate development. Both genes are expressed in the developing eye …

Inherited retinal degenerative diseases such as Retinitis Pigmentosa (RP) result in
progressive loss of photoreceptors until an individual is completely blind. A hallmark of these …

Purpose To characterize the expression pattern of cadherin 23 (cdh23) in the zebrafish
visual system, and to determine whether zebrafish cdh23 mutants have retinal defects …

Calcium binding proteins show stereotypical expression patterns within diverse neuron
types across the central nervous system. Here, we provide a characterization of …

The retinal dopaminergic amacrine cell plays multiple roles in vision; it optimizes the
encoding of visual stimuli, serves as an output of the circadian rhythm, and influences …
