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 ...
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).
This important study is the first comprehensive analysis of the modulatory effects of nitric oxide (NO) on the response properties of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in the mouse retina using two-photon ...
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).
