Introduction: Neurosphere-free transdifferentiation of bone marrow stem cells into Retinal Pigment Epithelium (RPE) and Retinal Cells (RCs) in vitro could offer an exceptional opportunity to study cell replacement in degenerative eye diseases.

Visual Impairment Secondary to Unilateral Isolated Epicapsular Star
We aimed to report a rarely observed case of unilateral epicapsular star and the visual impairment developed secondary to it. A 8-year-old girl presented with a complaint of blurred vision in the right eye; best-corrected visual acuity was 0.7 in the ...

Photoreceptor Outer Segment-like Structures in Long-Term 3D Retinas from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells. [PDF]
The retinal degenerative diseases, which together constitute a leading cause of hereditary blindness worldwide, are largely untreatable. Development of reliable methods to culture complex retinal tissues from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) could ...

Blue light regenerates functional visual pigments in mammals through a retinyl-phospholipid intermediate. [PDF]
The light absorbing chromophore in opsin visual pigments is the protonated Schiff base of 11-cis-retinaldehyde (11cRAL). Absorption of a photon isomerizes 11cRAL to all-trans-retinaldehyde (atRAL), briefly activating the pigment before it dissociates ...

Identification of Pigment Epithelium-Derived Factor in the Interphotoreceptor Matrix of Bovine Eyes
Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is a neurotrophic protein and a member of the serine protease inhibitor superfamily. Here we describe the identification of PEDF in bovine eyes and optimization of its purification from this natural source.

Delayed dark adaptation in central serous chorioretinopathy
Purpose: To evaluate the effect of central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR) on retinal function using dark adaptation in a human subject, and to follow it through resolution of the disease.

The retinal pigment epithelium of the eye regulates the development of scleral cartilage
The majority of vertebrate species have a layer of hyaline cartilage within the fibrous sclera giving an extra degree of support to the eyeball. In chicks, this is seen as a cuplike structure throughout the scleral layer. However, the mechanisms that control the development of scleral cartilage are largely unknown.

Loss of the Antiangiogenic Pigment Epithelium-Derived Factor in Patients With Angiogenic Eye Disease [PDF]
Retinal neovascularization characterizes proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR). Pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) has been shown to be a major antiangiogenic growth factor in the mammalian eye. PEDF expression is suppressed by hypoxia, and changes in PEDF have been correlated to the development of retinal neovascularization in animal models ...
