• Search for your name and practice location.
• Review your contact details, address, and office hours.
• Confirm that your specialties are correct.

Failing Vision Causes Eye Cells to Rewire

New research reveals that certain retinal cells can rewire themselves as vision declines in retinitis pigmentosa, a genetic eye disease that causes progressive blindness. Affecting millions worldwide, retinitis pigmentosa is a leading cause of inherited vision loss. While the disease often advances slowly, allowing some individuals to retain functional vision into middle age, scientists have long sought to understand how retinal circuits adapt to cell loss.

The study shows that retinal circuits preserve function through distinct adaptation mechanisms at different stages of disease progression. These insights could help researchers identify new therapeutic targets to maintain vision in patients with inherited retinal disorders.

“Our findings show that the retina adapts to the loss of rods in ways that attempt to preserve daytime light sensitivity in the retina,” said senior author A.P. Sampath, Ph.D. of the Jules Stein Eye Institute. “When the usual connections between rod bipolar cells and rods are lost, these cells can rewire themselves to receive signals from cones instead. The signal for this plasticity appears to be degeneration itself, perhaps through the role of glial support cells or factors released by dying cells.”
