Clinically Verified Hybrid Deep Learning System for Retinal Ganglion Cells Aware Grading of Glaucomatous Progression [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 Objective: Glaucoma is the second leading cause of blindness worldwide. Glaucomatous progression can be easily monitored by analyzing the degeneration of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). Many researchers have screened glaucoma by measuring cup-to-disc ratios from fundus and optical coherence tomography scans. However, this paper presents a novel strategy

Distribution of melanopsin positive neurons in pigmented and albino mice: evidence for melanopsin interneurons in the mouse retina. [PDF]
, 2014 Here we have studied the population of intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs) in adult pigmented and albino mice. Our data show that although pigmented (C57Bl/6) and albino (Swiss) mice have a similar total number of ipRGCs, their ...

Graded potential of neural crest to form cornea, sensory neurons and cartilage along the rostrocaudal axis [PDF]
, 2004 Neural crest cells arising from different rostrocaudal axial levels form different sets of derivatives as diverse as ganglia, cartilage and cornea. These variations may be due to intrinsic properties of the cell populations, different environmental ...

Functional imaging of ganglion and receptor cells in living human retina by osmotic contrast [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Imaging neuronal activity non-invasively in vivo is of tremendous interest, but current imaging techniques lack either functional contrast or necessary microscopic resolution. The retina is the only part of the central nervous system (CNS) that allows us direct optical access.

The Effects of L(+), D(-), and DL-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyrate (APB) on Electroretinogram and Ganglopn Cell Activity in the Cat Retina [PDF]
, 1995 L(+)-, D(-)-, or DL-2-amino-4-phosphonobutyric acid (APB; 2.5- 16 μmol) were injected into the vitreous body of anesthetized adult cats. The retina was stimulated by diffuse square wave light flashes (10- 60 ms). The flash-induced electroretinogram (ERU)

Engineering the Future of Restorative Clinical Peripheral Nerve Surgery
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.What if damaged nerves could regenerate more effectively? This review unveils cutting‐edge strategies to restore nerve function, from biomaterial scaffolds and bioactive molecules to living engineered tissues. By accelerating axonal regrowth, preserving Schwann cells, and enhancing connectivity, these approaches are reshaping nerve repair—offering new ...

The eyes of suckermouth armoured catfish (Loricariidae, subfamily Hypostomus): pupil response, lenticular longitudinal spherical aberration and retinal topography [PDF]
, 2002 The dilated, round pupils of a species of suckermouth armoured catfish (Liposarcus pardalis) constrict slowly on illumination (over 35-40 min) to form crescent-shaped apertures. Ray tracing of He-Ne laser beams shows that the lenses of a related species (

A double-label study of efferent projections from the Edinger-Westphal nucleus in goldfish and kelp bass [PDF]
, 1988 The Edinger-Westphal nucleus in goldfish was identified by retrograde labeling from the ciliary ganglion. In the same animals a few neurons near this nucleus (perinuclear Edinger-Westphal neurons) were labeled by a different retrograde tracer injected ...
