The retina is subject to degenerative diseases that often lead to significant visual impairment. Non-mammalian vertebrates have a remarkable ability to replace neurons lost through damage. Fish, and to a limited extent birds, replace lost neurons by de-differentiation of Müller glia to a progenitor state followed by replication of these neuronal progenitor cells. Over the past five years, studies have investigated whether regeneration can be stimulated in the mouse and rat retina. Several groups have reported that at least some types of neurons can be regenerated in the mammalian retina in vivo or in vitro, and that the regeneration of neurons can be stimulated using growth factors, transcription factors or subtoxic levels of excitatory amino acids. These recent results suggest that some part of the regenerative program that occurs in non-mammalian vertebrates remains in the mammalian retina, and may provide a basis to develop new strategies for retinal repair in patients with retinal degenerations.
