Effects of a metabotropic glutamate 1 receptor antagonist on light responses of retinal ganglion cells in a rat model of retinitis pigmentosa.
BACKGROUND: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a progressive retinal degenerative disease that causes deterioration of rod and cone photoreceptors. A well-studied animal model of RP is the transgenic P23H rat, which carries a mutation in the rhodopsin gene. Previously, I reported that blocking retinal GAB...
