One of my lab's long-term goals is to elucidate the transcriptional and epigenetic mechanisms regulating retinal progenitor cell proliferation and differentiation, leading to new therapeutic ...
A section through the retinal pigment epithelium layer from an infected ACE2-expressing mouse: upper image, bright-field plus SARSCoV-2 N-protein (green) and complement component C3b ...
Two new compounds may be able to treat retinitis pigmentosa, a group of inherited eye diseases that cause blindness. The compounds were identified using a virtual screening approach.
This means these stem cells can live in mouse and rabbit retinal matrixes, allowing them to create more photoreceptor cells and replace those lost to degeneration. The researchers used a retinal ...
In retinitis pigmentosa, the retina protein rhodopsin is often misfolded ... mutants in vitro and slow photoreceptor cell death in a mouse model of RP, offering a potential new therapeutic ...
