Human cone photoreceptors represent a rare cell population of the human retina and are largely outnumbered by other retinal cell types. Despite their rarity, cone photoreceptors are critical for optimal daylight vision and their loss has the greatest impact on sight during the progression of retinal...

To define molecular mechanisms underlying rod and cone differentiation, we generated H9 human embryonic stem cell line carrying a GFP reporter that is controlled by the promoter of cone-rod homeobox (CRX) gene, the first known marker of post-mitotic photoreceptor precursors. CRXp-GFP reporter in H9 ...

To enrich mouse rod and cone photoreceptors for mass spectrometric analysis, we optimized our previously established trituration-based fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) strategy (see Lux et al., 2024 for details; PMID: 38481472). For quantitative mass spectrometry, we utilized an ion mobili...

The loss of cone photoreceptor cells, which are critical for optimal daylight vision, have the great impact on vision during retinal degenerations. Retinal differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC) sources could provide a renewable source of cone photoreceptors towards developin...

The outer segments of cones serve as light detectors for daylight color vision, and their dysfunction leads to human blindness conditions. We show that the cone-specific disruption of DiGeorge Syndrome Critical Region Gene 8 (DGCR8) in adult mice led to the loss of miRNAs and the loss of outer segme...

Identification of genes with enriched expression in early developing mouse cone photoreceptors
A LHX4 transgenic reporter line with high specificity for developing mouse cone photoreceptors was identified and used to purify early stage cone photoreceptors for profiling by single cell RNA sequencing.

We have shown that Chrnb4-cre; Dicerflox/flox retinas (Dicer CKO) display a cone dystrophy by postnatal day P21, independent of rod degeneration. To elucidate which gene pathways were affected by Dicer loss, RNA sequencing was performed in whole neural retinas of P21 control and Dicer CKO mice. This...

We have shown that Chrnb4-cre; Dicerflox/flox retinas (Dicer CKO) display a cone dystrophy by postnatal day P21, independent of rod degeneration. To elucidate which miRNAs were involved in such phenotype, miRNA sequencing was performed in whole retinas of P21 and 3.5 month old control and Dicer CKO ...

Cone photoreceptors are the primary initiator of visual transduction in the human retina. Dysfunction or death of rod photoreceptors precedes cone loss in many retinal and macular degenerative diseases, suggesting a rod-dependent trophic support for cone survival. Rod differentiation and homeostasis...
