Rho dephosphorylation at both sites was extremely delayed in P23H retina as compared to normal ones. Kinetics of Rho regeneration was not altered between normal and P23H rats under dark adaptation. Next, to study the effects of several Ca2+ channel blockers on this model, retinal function and morphology were evaluated. Among them, nilvadipine showed a significant protective effect against P23H retinal degeneration. Neurotrophic factor, fibroblast growth factor-2 and Arc, known to suppress the apoptosis in the central nervous system, were significantly upregulated upon administration of nilvadipine. The present study indicates that misregulation of Rho phosphorylation may be involved as an important step in retinal degeneration of P23H and administration of nilvadipine may be a potential therapeutic agent for the retinal degenerations.Keywords: rhodopsin, P23H rat, retinitis pigmentosa, mutation Yoshiyuki SaitoHiroshi OhguroIkuyo OhguroNoriyuki SatoFutoshi Ishikawaet alDove Medical PressarticleOphthalmologyRE1-994ENClinical Ophthalmology, Vol 2008, Iss Issue 4, Pp 821-828 (2008)
