Fluorescein angiography compared to three-dimensional measurements by the retinal thickness analyzer in classic choroidal neovascularization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Purpose: To compare and correlate imaging of classic subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) with noninvasive 3-dimensional imaging by the retinal thickness analyzer (RTA) to conventional fluorescein angiography (FA).

Susceptibility to neurodegeneration in a glaucoma is modified by Bax gene dosage. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2005
In glaucoma, harmful intraocular pressure often contributes to retinal ganglion cell death. It is not clear, however, if intraocular pressure directly insults the retinal ganglion cell axon, the soma, or both.

Retinal Degeneration in the Fly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Many genes are functionally equivalent between flies and humans. In addition, the same, or similar, mutations cause disease in both species. In fact, nearly three-fourths of all human disease genes have related sequences in Drosophila. The fly has a relatively small genome, made up of about 13,600 genes in four pairs of chromosomes.

Toll-like Receptor 2 Facilitates Oxidative Damage-Induced Retinal Degeneration

open access: yesCell Reports, 2020
Summary: Retinal degeneration is a form of neurodegenerative disease and is the leading cause of vision loss globally. The Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are primary components of the innate immune system involved in signal transduction.

Gene therapy restores vision in rd1 mice after removal of a confounding mutation in Gpr179 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The rd1 mouse with a mutation in the Pde6b gene was the first strain of mice identified with a retinal degeneration. However, AAV-mediated gene supplementation of rd1 mice only results in structural preservation of photoreceptors, and restoration of the ...

Necroptosis and Neuroinflammation in Retinal Degeneration

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2022
Necroptosis mediates the chronic inflammatory phenotype in neurodegeneration. Receptor-interacting protein kinase (RIPK) plays a pivotal role in the induction of necroptosis in various cell types, including microglia, and it is implicated in diverse neurodegenerative diseases in the central nervous system and the retina.

Long-term visual and microperimetry outcomes following autologous retinal pigment epithelium choroid graft for neovascular age-related macular degeneration

open access: yes, 2009
To describe the 2- to 4-year visual and microperimetry outcomes of autologous retinal pigment epithelium (RPE)-choroid graft in patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (AMD).In this retrospective cohort study, 12 patients with ...

Topographic mapping of retinal function with the SLO-mfERG under simultaneous control of fixation in Best's disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Purpose: To introduce the scanning laser ophthalmoscope-evoked mfERG (SLO-mfERG) as a new method to measure focal retinal function. Methods: Sixty-two healthy individuals and 12 patients with Best's disease were examined.

Generation of a Double Reporter mES Cell Line to Simultaneously Trace the Generation of Retinal Progenitors and Photoreceptors

open access: yesCells
Three-dimensional retinal culture systems help to understand eye development and the pathology of disorders. There is a need for reporter stem cell lines to allow in vitro studies on retinal progenitors and photoreceptors and their developmental dynamics
