Interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein (651-670) (IRBP651-670) is a peptide fragment of IRBP, also known as retinoid-binding protein 3, which is involved in pigment regeneration by transporting retinol and retinal from photoreceptor cells to retinal pigment epithelium.1,2 IRBP651-670 has been used to induce autoimmune uveoretinitis in C57BL/6 mice, which bear the H-2b haplotype. Immunization with IRBP651-670 (300 µg/animal) increases ocular IL-1β, IL-6, IL-17, TNF-α, and IFN-γ levels, immune cell infiltration, and photoreceptor damage in mice.
