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 ...

The retina is often called an “outpost of the brain” because crucial visual signal processing happens in the eye’s nerve ...

A team of UC Davis Health researchers has shown that CD34+ stem cells can be safely administered into retinitis pigmentosa ...

This research evaluates the effects of various gene therapy viral vectors on RPE cells to determine efficacy for therapeutic ...

Using microelectrodes, scientists could show that cells in the retina play different roles. The produce different signals, which is important for the processing of visual information. These ...

This cross-institutional, multi-methodological study provided a comprehensive analysis of retinal proteins, comparing three mouse models of inherited retinal degeneration to healthy wild-type mice.
