Disruption of photoreceptor-retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) interface with loss of photoreceptor outer segments (POSs) in the retina is a pathological hallmark of several neurodegenerative and retinal diseases including lysosomal storage disorder's like CLN3 disease. However, the retina is a functional composite Acid ceramidase deficiency and consequently altered sphingolipid signaling promotes disease phenotype(s) in a lysosomal storage disorder, CLN3 disease.

Nutrigenetics research is anticipated to lay the foundation for personalized dietary recommendations; however, it remains unclear if providing individuals with their personal genetic information changes dietary behaviors. Our objective was to evaluate if providing information for a common variant in the fatty acid desaturase 1 ( Show less
