Résumé
The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) performs several functions that are crucial for normal retinal function and vision, including the daily phagocytosis of photoreceptor outer segment (POS) membranes. Defects in the motility and degradation of POS phagosomes may be associated with some inherited and age-related retinal degenerations. Given the apical to basal translocation of phagosomes during maturation and degradation, studies of the underlying mechanisms require analyses of the dynamics in 3-D. In this chapter, we report a method for investigating the 3-D motility of POS phagosomes and lysosomes, utilizing high-speed, spinning disk confocal microscopy of live RPE flatmounts.
