| Abstract: | More than 80 genes associated with human photoreceptor degenerations have been identified. Attention must now turn toward defining the mechanisms that lead to photoreceptor death, which occurs years to decades after the birth of the cells. Consequently, this review focuses on topics that offer insights into such mechanisms, including the one-hit or constant risk model of photoreceptor death; topological patterns of photoreceptor degeneration; mutations in ubiquitously expressed splicing factor genes associated only with photoreceptor degeneration; disorders of the retinal pigment epithelium; modifier genes; and global gene expression analysis of the retina, which will greatly increase our understanding of the downstream events that occur in response to a mutation.
