Retinal Laminar Architecture in Human Retinitis Pigmentosa Caused by<i>Rhodopsin</i>Gene Mutations

Abstract

Retinal laminar abnormalities were present in both classes of RHO-ADRP and were related to the severity of colocalized vision loss. The results in human class B and the transgenic mice support the following disease sequence: ONL diminution with INL thickening; amalgamation of residual ONL with the thickened INL; and progressive retinal remodeling with eventual thinning.
