Aberrant growth of blood vessels in the choroid layer of the eye, termed choroidal neovascularization (CNV), is the pathological hallmark of exudative age-related macular degeneration (AMD), causing irreversible blindness among the elderly. Co-locali

The retinal pigmented epithelial (RPE) layer is one of the major ocular tissues affected by oxidative stress and is known to play an important role in the etiology of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the major cause of blinding in the elderly.

PURPOSE Muller cells, the major glial cell in the retina, play a significant role in retinal neovascularization in response to tissue hypoxia. We previously designed and tested a vector using a hypoxia-responsive domain and a glial fibrillary acidic

Wolfram syndrome 1 (WFS1, OMIM 222300), a rare genetic disorder characterized by optic nerve atrophy, deafness, diabetes insipidus and diabetes mellitus, is caused by mutations of WFS1, encoding WFS1/wolframin. Non-syndromic WFS1 variants are associa

Mouse retinal photoreceptor cell generation and morphogenesis take place in a well-characterized temporal sequence. Both rod and cone photoreceptor differentiation and synaptogenesis occur postnatally, but the relative timing of these events has been

Selective degeneration of rod photoreceptor cells in the retinal degenerative (rd) mouse prior to their complete maturation is thought to result from elevated cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) levels owing to the inherited defect in cGMP-phosphod

Purpose. A retroviral marker was used to label daughter cells arising from individual neuroblasts in the rd mouse retina, in order to investigate the hypothesis that a clonal relationship exists among degenerating photoreceptor cells. METHODS. On the

Lens epithelial cells undergo a dramatic transformation during the process of differentiation into elongated fiber cells. The membrane-associated actin cytoskeleton is likely to play a critical role in the stabilization and maintenance of the highly

Morphometric analysis of the numbers of neurons in the ganglion cell layer (GCL) of the central retina (fovea/foveola/parafoveal retina) in eyes from 9 Alzheimer's disease (AD) and 11 age-matched control cases revealed an overall decrease of 25% in t

Somatostatin (SRIF) is a neuroactive peptide that is distributed throughout the nervous system, including the retina. This peptide has been localized to populations of amacrine cells in a variety of vertebrate species. In the rabbit retina, SRIF immu
