Low-Level Gestational Lead Exposure Increases Retinal Progenitor Cell Proliferation and Rod Photoreceptor and Bipolar Cell Neurogenesis in Mice

BACKGROUND: Gestational lead exposure (GLE) produces novel and persistent rod-mediated electroretinographic (ERG) supernormality in children and adult animals. OBJECTIVES: We used our murine GLE model to test the hypothesis that GLE increases the number of neurons in the rod signaling pathway and to...
