Visual arrestin modulates gene expression in the retinal pigment epithelium: Implications for homeostasis in the retina

The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) is essential for maintaining retinal homeostasis by removing and recycling photoreceptor outer segment (POS) in membranes. It also produces and secretes growth factors involved in retinal homeostasis. Arrestin 1 (ARR1) is specifically expressed in photoreceptors...
