RGD Curation Notes
Note Type Note Reference
strain_characteristics Rats demonstrate both photoreceptor degeneration and immunodeficiency (background: NIH nude rat). The outer nuclear layer is reduced to one row at the age of 3-4 weeks. The rod photoreceptors do not develop outer segments. 2292495
strain_other Transplantation of human cells to replace demaged or lost photoreceptors or to prevent retinal degeneration without the need of immunosuppression. For experiments, rats can have 1 or 2 copies of transgene, but need to be homozygous nude. The advantage of not having to use immunosuppression means healthier transplant recipients, and healthier transplants. Although the rats need to be housed under protective conditions, they are in general much healthier than immunosuppressed rats. 2292495
