Retinal Photographs

Caption

Geographic atrophy is induced by DICER1 reduction as seen in the retinal photograph (top right, blue arrowheads). This is prevented by blocking Alu RNA (top left). Flat mount pictures show that the degeneration of the RPE cells induced by DICER1 reduction (bottom right) is prevented by blocking Alu RNA (bottom left).
