Insights on the Regeneration Potential of Müller Glia in the Mammalian Retina [PDF]
Müller glia, the major glial cell types in the retina, maintain retinal homeostasis and provide structural support to retinal photoreceptors. They also possess regenerative potential that might be used for retinal repair in response to injury or disease.

Retinal Müller glia have a capacity to regenerate neurons in lower vertebrates like zebrafish, but such ability is extremely limited in mammals. In zebrafish, Müller glia proliferate after injury, which promotes their neurogenic reprogramming while ...

Heterogeneity in quiescent Müller glia in the uninjured zebrafish retina drive differential responses following photoreceptor ablation [PDF]
IntroductionLoss of neurons in the neural retina is a leading cause of vision loss. While humans do not possess the capacity for retinal regeneration, zebrafish can achieve this through activation of resident Müller glia. Remarkably, despite the presence

Organoid-derived human retinal progenitor cells promote early dedifferentiation of Müller glia in Royal College of Surgeons rats [PDF]
AIM: To explore whether the subretinal transplantation of retinal progenitor cells from human embryonic stem cell-derived retinal organoid (hERO-RPCs) could promote Müller glia dedifferentiation and transdifferentiation, thus improving visual function ...

Regulations of Retinal Inflammation: Focusing on Müller Glia
Retinal inflammation underlies multiple prevalent retinal diseases. While microglia are one of the most studied cell types regarding retinal inflammation, growing evidence shows that Müller glia play critical roles in the regulation of retinal ...

In the lesioned zebrafish retina, Müller glia produce multipotent retinal progenitors that generate all retinal neurons, replacing lost cell types. To study the molecular mechanisms linking Müller glia reactivity to progenitor production and neuronal ...

Clearance phagocytosis is a documented function of Müller glia in the retina. However, the molecular mechanisms of Müller glia phagocytosis remain largely undefined. Here, we show that extracellular galectin-3 and protein S promote clearance phagocytosis

Genome-wide analysis of Müller glial differentiation reveals a requirement for Notch signaling in postmitotic cells to maintain the glial fate. [PDF]
Previous studies have shown that Müller glia are closely related to retinal progenitors; these two cell types express many of the same genes and after damage to the retina, Müller glia can serve as a source for new neurons, particularly in non-mammalian ...

Müller Glia in Retinal Development: From Specification to Circuit Integration
Müller glia of the retina share many features with astroglia located throughout the brain including maintenance of homeostasis, modulation of neurotransmitter spillover, and robust response to injury.
