Graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) is a common and severe complication that occurs after stem cell transplantation, where the ...

As blood leaks into the eye, it can cause a separation of the light-sensing photoreceptor cells from the retinal membrane. This separation prevents cells from receiving much-needed nutrients ...

These four are the first to receive transplants of reprogrammed stem cells to heal injured corneas, the eye’s clear outer ...

Older women could be vulnerable to harmful inflammation from new gene therapies to treat incurable eye diseases, new research ...

US military veteran Aaron James has received the world's first eye transplant after suffering a devastating accident back in 2021.

Eventually, the light-sensitive spot evolved into a retina, the layer of cells and pigment at the back of the human eye. Over time a lens formed at the front of the eye. It could have arisen as a ...

Researchers will explore a promising approach for treating degenerative diseases by replacing damaged cells with new ones and ...

This enhanced the contrast enough to view cells with the naked eye. M’Saad says that using the technique, she could discern the shape of an enlarged cell, and identify the cell’s nucleus and cytoplasm ...

Injections of cells taken from the back of the eye have brought about dramatic improvements in patients with Parkinson's disease. Experts believe the new technique could have the potential to ...

The Gonzales Lab at UNR Med, led by Albert Gonzales, Ph.D., assistant professor of physiology and cell biology, spearheaded ...

We found that it functions in maintaining homeostasis in the tissue, keeping an eye on whether stem cells are proliferating too much. By doing so, it prevents cells from becoming cancerous and ...
