Microglial phagocytosis and activation underlying photoreceptor degeneration is regulated by CX3CL1‐CX3CR1 signaling in a mouse model of retinitis pigmentosa

Retinitis pigmentosa (RP), a disease characterized by the progressive degeneration of mutation‐bearing photoreceptors, is a significant cause of incurable blindness in the young worldwide. Recent studies have found that activated retinal microglia contribute to photoreceptor demise via phagocytosis...
