Cell replacement therapy offers a therapeutic approach for patients with advanced disease in which there has been loss of photoreceptors, RPE or retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Age-related macular ...
The rates at which ganglion cell-inner plexiform layer (GCIPL) and retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) thin in the eyes was ...
Glaucoma is a progressive eye disorder characterized by fluid buildup inside the eye, causing ocular hypertension. By 2040, ...
Proper survival and regeneration of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), which constitute the optic nerve, is crucial for managing traumatic or ischemic optic nerve injury, optic neuropathy, or optic ...
Artificial intelligence-enabled discovery of a RIPK3 inhibitor with neuroprotective effects in an acute glaucoma mouse model ...
While diabetic retinopathy is typically associated with vascular damage, recent work has shown that the density of retinal ganglion cells is also reduced in diabetes prior to the development of ...
USC researchers use 3D microscopy and genetically engineered viruses to visualize and distinguish specific retinal ganglion cell types (shown here in green) from other cells in the retina (purple).
In the tadpole stage, the eyes are lateral and all ganglion cells project axons to the contralateral side of the brain (retina is denoted by curves, ganglion cell axons are denoted by lines).
The trial is designed to assess the tolerability, efficacy, and safety of two different dosages of the therapy.
This process happens via cells known as ganglion cells in the retina. Refrain from using electronic devices at night due to ...
