Inside the human eye, the retina is made up of several types of cells, including the light-sensing photoreceptors that ...

Researchers discovered that abnormal tau proteins accumulate in the retinal ganglion cells of Alzheimer’s patients, linking ...

Researchers have developed pig retinal organoids to understand how stem cell-derived photoreceptor cells work as a ...

The center–surround receptive-field organization in retinal ganglion cells is widely believed to result mainly from lateral inhibition at the first synaptic level (in the outer retina).

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 ...

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 ...

One area where it is making a difference is in the understanding of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) loss in optic nerve disorders like glaucoma. Effective strategies for retinal repair and ...
