Retinal gene therapy with a large MYO7A cDNA using adeno-associated virus. [PDF]
Usher 1 patients are born profoundly deaf and then develop retinal degeneration. Thus they are readily identified before the onset of retinal degeneration, making gene therapy a viable strategy to prevent their blindness.

Observation of cone and rod photoreceptors in normal subjects and patients using a new generation adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope. [PDF]
We demonstrate the capability of a new generation adaptive optics scanning laser ophthalmoscope (AOSLO) to resolve cones and rods in normal subjects, and confirm our findings by comparing cone and rod spacing with published histology measurements.

Attenuation of Oxygen-Induced Neovascularization and Inflammation by Neutralizing VEGFA and/or ANG-2 With an Antibody. [PDF]
The effects of intraocular administration of neutralizing antibodies against VEGFA, ANG‐2, or bispecific to these two factors on pathological findings were examined in the oxygen‐induced retinopathy (OIR) mouse model. The antibody to VEGFA or ANG‐2 attenuated oxygen‐induced neovascularization and inflammation, and the bispecific antibody more ...

A nonhuman primate model of inherited retinal disease. [PDF]
Inherited retinal degenerations are a common cause of untreatable blindness worldwide, with retinitis pigmentosa and cone dystrophy affecting approximately 1 in 3500 and 1 in 10,000 individuals, respectively.

Exposure to the complement C5b-9 complex sensitizes 661W photoreceptor cells to both apoptosis and necroptosis. [PDF]
The loss of photoreceptors is the defining characteristic of many retinal degenerative diseases, but the mechanisms that regulate photoreceptor cell death are not fully understood.

Elevated expression of human bHLH factor ATOH7 accelerates cell cycle progression of progenitors and enhances production of avian retinal ganglion cells. [PDF]
The production of vertebrate retinal projection neurons, retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), is regulated by cell-intrinsic determinants and cell-to-cell signaling events.
