abstractText | The effects of photoreceptor cell degeneration on the expression of nine alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-isoxasole-4-propionate (AMPA)/kainate glutamate receptor subunit genes were investigated in the rd mouse retina by in situ hybridization. All known AMPA/kainate receptor subunits were found to be expressed in normal mouse retina. Following retinal degeneration, the expression of KA-1 was reduced, that of the GluR7 subunit was greatly increased, and that of the other seven subunits were not significantly affected. |
