Immunostaining of mouse retina with anti-CEP antibodies (left panel) was prominant only for the rod outer segments (OS) and retinyl pigmented epithelium (RPE). As predicted, CEPs are only generated in ...

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 ...

Retinal degeneration in the disease retinitis pigmentosa is caused by a family of hereditary mutations that slowly lead to blindness over years or decades. A mouse model of one of these forms of ...

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 ...

Biology in the Background The retina is the part of the eye that detects light and allows us to see. It is located at the back of the eye and contains cells that detect light, process visual ...

This polarity could also have implications for retinal-related pathologies ... polarity pathway triggered by light in the developing mouse retina, Developmental Cell (2024).
