Do microglial cells invade the outer retina as photoreceptors degenerate in Royal College of Surgeons rats?
These findings suggest that phagocytic cells during the early stages of dystrophy in RCS rat retinas are derived from resident microglial cells, not from peripheral macrophages. The migration of microglial cells into the outer retina when photoreceptor cells begin to degenerate further suggests that they may play a major role in photoreceptor cell death in the dystrophic retina.
RTDs were most popular among young people aged 14-17 years, and females. RTDs predicted higher typical occasion alcohol consumption and heavier drinking better than any other beverage for females aged 14-17 years. For the other age and gender groups, other beverages predicted higher quantity and frequency consumption.
