    Abstract Genetic mosaicism is an intriguing physiological feature of the mammalian brain that generates altered genetic information and provides cellular, and prospectively functional, diversity in a manner similar to that of the immune system. However, both its origin and its physiological significance remain poorly characterized. Most, if not all, cases of somatic mosaicism require prior generation and repair of DNA double strand breaks (DSBs). The relationship between DSB generation, neurogenesis, and early neuronal cell death revealed by our studies in the developing retina provides new perspectives on the different mechanisms that contribute to DNA rearrangements in the developing brain. Here, we speculate on the physiological significance of these findings.

    Abstract Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a genetically heterogeneous disease and the predominant cause of hereditary blindness. Irrespective of the causative mutation, traits common to all forms of RP include photoreceptor dysfunction and death, activation of the retinal glial component, and retinal inflammation. Activation of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) in response to tissue damage is associated with inflammatory processes that contribute to neurodegeneration. We show that retinal expression of the genes Tlr1 to Tlr9 is increased in the rd10 mouse model of RP, with Tlr2 showing the greatest increase (36-fold). Flow cytometry analysis of the retinal myeloid population revealed significant increases in numbers of microglia and infiltrating monocytes and macrophages in rd10 retinas. Furthermore, TLR2 expression, which was restricted to myeloid cells, was increased in rd10 retinal microglia. These observations, together with our previous finding of delayed RP progression following Tlr2 deletion, point to TLR2 as a potential therapeutic target for RP.

    Abstract Insulin-degrading enzyme (IDE) was named after its role as a proteolytic enzyme of insulin. However, recent findings suggest that IDE is a widely expressed, multitask protein, with both proteolytic and non-proteolytic functions. Here, we characterize the expression of IDE in the mammalian retina in both physiological and pathological conditions. We found that IDE was enriched in cone inner segments. IDE levels were downregulated in the dystrophic retina of several mouse models of retinitis pigmentosa carrying distinct mutations. In

    Abstract Although considered a rare retinal dystrophy, retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is the primary cause of hereditary blindness. Given its diverse genetic etiology (>3000 mutations in >60 genes), there is an urgent need for novel treatments that target common features of the disease. TLR2 is a key activator of innate immune response. To examine its role in RP progression we characterized the expression profile of

    Abstract The short and long isoforms of FAIM (FAIM-S and FAIM-L) hold important functions in the central nervous system, and their expression levels are specifically enriched in the retina. We previously described that Faim knockout (KO) mice present structural and molecular alterations in the retina compatible with a neurodegenerative phenotype. Here, we aimed to study Faim KO retinal functions and molecular mechanisms leading to its alterations. Electroretinographic recordings showed that aged Faim KO mice present functional loss of rod photoreceptor and ganglion cells. Additionally, we found a significant delay in dark adaptation from early adult ages. This functional deficit is exacerbated by luminic stress, which also caused histopathological alterations. Interestingly, Faim KO mice present abnormal Arrestin-1 redistribution upon light reception, and we show that Arrestin-1 is ubiquitinated, a process that is abrogated by either FAIM-S or FAIM-L in vitro. Our results suggest that FAIM assists Arrestin-1 light-dependent translocation by a process that likely involves ubiquitination. In the absence of FAIM, this impairment could be the cause of dark adaptation delay and increased light sensitivity. Multiple retinal diseases are linked to deficits in photoresponse termination, and hence, investigating the role of FAIM could shed light onto the underlying mechanisms of their pathophysiology.
