Selective Rod Degeneration and Partial Cone Inactivation Characterize an Iodoacetic Acid Model of Swine Retinal Degeneration

PURPOSE. Transgenic pigs carrying a mutant human rhodopsin transgene have been developed as a large animal model of retinitis pigmentosa (RP). This model displays some key features of human RP, but the time course of disease progression makes this model costly, time consuming, and difficult to study...
