Neuroprotection in a Novel Mouse Model of Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]

, 2013
Multiple sclerosis is an immune-mediated, demyelinating and neurodegenerative disease that currently lacks any neuroprotective treatments. Innovative neuroprotective trial designs are required to hasten the translational process of drug development.

Intelligent Micro/Nanorobots for Targeted Interventional Therapy: From Bench to Clinic

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Zirui Zhang et al. reviewed the application and challenges of mobile nanomachines in interventional therapy. By converting exogenous energy, including chemical, magnetic, optical, and ultrasonic sources, into mechanical forces, micro/nanorobots (MNRs) enable precise actuation at unprecedented scales. Evolving far beyond traditional drug delivery, these

Retinal ganglion cells: dying to survive

The International Journal of Developmental Biology, 2006
This review examines the maturation of the retinal ganglion cell (RGC) population within the nascent retina. Apoptosis, a form of programmed cell death prevalent throughout the developing central nervous system (CNS), is evident in the growth of RGCs within the ganglion cell layer.

Neuronal Nitric Oxide Synthase Is Crucial for Ganglion Cell Death in Rat Retinal Explant Cultures

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
We examined possible involvement of nitric oxide synthase (NOS) on ganglion cell death in explant cultures of neonatal rat retina. Survival of retinal ganglion cells was significantly prolonged by a broad-spectrum NOS inhibitor Nω-nitro-L-arginine ...

Luminance and contrast adaptation of the inner retina [PDF]

, 2015
Adaptation is a common feature of sensory systems, matching neural activity to the range of inputs from the environment. In the visual system this is of great importance because visual stimulus can change across 9 orders of magnitude.

Engineering Approaches to Modify Immunomodulatory Functions of Mesenchymal Stromal Cells (MSCs): Tissue Regeneration and Clinical Application

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) show promise for treating immune‐related disorders through immunomodulation and tissue regeneration. This review gives a brief overview of current clinical approval of MSC therapies. It also discussed how bioengineering, including genetic modification, biomaterial delivery, extracellular vesicles, and iPSC‐derived MSCs,

Biolistic Labeling of Retinal Ganglion Cells

, 2017
Labeling of cellular structures is of fundamental importance in the investigation of diseases of the central nervous system. Biolistic labeling of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) allows visualization of dendritic and synaptic structures of RGCs in retinal explants from animal models of experimental glaucoma.
