This study identifies MYO1C as a regulator of rhodopsin trafficking and rod photoreceptor homeostasis, showing its cell-autonomous role in maintaining phototransduction recovery.

This study shows that dietary beta-carotene reduces lipofuscin accumulation in Stargardt disease mice by modulating the vitamin A receptor RBPR2.

This study shows that loss of RBPR2 affects retinoid homeostasis and visual pigment synthesis, leading to visual function defects in mice under vitamin A deficiency.
