Probing Photoreceptor Outer Segment Phagocytosis by the RPE In Vivo: Models and Methodologies

In the vertebrate retina, the light-sensitive photoreceptor rods and cones constantly undergo renewal by generating new portions of the outer segment and shedding their distal, spent tips. The neighboring RPE provides the critical function of engulfing the spent material by phagocytosis. RPE phagocy...
