Glial cells expressing visual cycle genes are vital for photoreceptor survival in the zebrafish pineal gland
Photoreceptors in the vertebrate eye are dependent on the retinal pigmented epithelium for a variety of functions including retinal re-isomerization and waste disposal. The light-sensitive pineal gland of fish, birds, and amphibians is evolutionarily related to the eye but lacks a pigmented epitheli...
