Organization of the dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus in the mouse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of the thalamus is the principal conduit for visual information from retina to visual cortex. Viewed initially as a simple relay, recent studies in the mouse reveal far greater complexity in the way input from

Repeatability of Perimacular Ganglion Cell Complex Analysis with Spectral-Domain Optical Coherence Tomography

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2015
Purpose. To assess the repeatability of spectral-domain optical coherence tomography to measure macular and perimacular ganglion cell complex thicknesses and compare retinal ganglion cell parameters between algorithms. Methods. Ninety-two nonglaucomatous

Hyperactivity of ON-type retinal ganglion cells in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Impairment of visual function has been detected in the early stage of diabetes but the underlying neural mechanisms involved are largely unknown.

Melanopsin ganglion cells are the most resistant retinal ganglion cell type to axonal injury in the rat retina. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
We report that the most common retinal ganglion cell type that remains after optic nerve transection is the M1 melanopsin ganglion cell. M1 ganglion cells are members of the intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cell population that mediates non ...

Cell transplantation to replace retinal ganglion cells faces challenges – the Switchboard Dilemma

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2021
The mammalian retina displays incomplete intrinsic regenerative capacities; therefore, retina degeneration is a major cause of irreversible blindness such as glaucoma, age-related macular degeneration and diabetic retinopathy.

Non-viral delivery and optimized optogenetic stimulation of retinal ganglion cells led to behavioral restoration of vision [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Stimulation of retinal neurons using optogenetics via use of chanelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) has opened up a new direction for restoration of vision for treatment of retinitis pigmentosa (RP).

R-28 cell-derived extracellular vesicles protect retinal ganglion cells in glaucoma

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research
Glaucoma is characterized by chronic progressive optic nerve damage and retinal ganglion cell death. Although extensive research has been conducted on neuroprotection for retinal ganglion cells, there is still no treatment for clinical use.

Pluripotent Stem Cell-Based Approaches to Explore and Treat Optic Neuropathies

open access: yesFrontiers in Neuroscience, 2018
Sight is a major sense for human and visual impairment profoundly affects quality of life, especially retinal degenerative diseases which are the leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide.

Dendritic and axonal targeting patterns of a genetically-specified class of retinal ganglion cells that participate in image-forming circuits. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BackgroundThere are numerous functional types of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), each participating in circuits that encode a specific aspect of the visual scene.
