The diverse roles of inhibition in identified neural circuits [PDF]

, 2010
Inhibitory interneurons represent a diverse population of cell types in the central nervous system, whose general role is to suppress activity of target neurons.

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

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

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

PLoS 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.

Gender difference in the neuroprotective effect of rat bone marrow mesenchymal cells against hypoxia-induced apoptosis of retinal ganglion cells

Neural Regeneration Research, 2016
Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells can reduce retinal ganglion cell death and effectively prevent vision loss. Previously, we found that during differentiation, female rhesus monkey bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells acquire a higher neurogenic potential

Cell-Based Neuroprotection of Retinal Ganglion Cells in Animal Models of Optic Neuropathies

Biology, 2021
Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) comprise a heterogenous group of projection neurons that transmit visual information from the retina to the brain. Progressive degeneration of these cells, as it occurs in inflammatory, ischemic, traumatic or glaucomatous ...

Novel rodent models for macular research [PDF]

, 2010
BACKGROUND: Many disabling human retinal disorders involve the central retina, particularly the macula. However, the commonly used rodent models in research, mouse and rat, do not possess a macula.

HIF-1 expression in retinal ganglion cells and optic nerve axons in glaucoma HIF-1 expression in retinal ganglion cells and optic nerve axons in glaucoma

Folia Histochemica et Cytobiologica, 2012
Glaucoma is a result of increased intraocular pressure leading to damage to retinal ganglion cells and<br />optic nerve axons. The aim of this study was to evaluate HIF-1 expression in optic nerve axons and retinal<br />ganglion cells in 42 ...

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

Frontiers 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.

Neurogenesis and Specification of Retinal Ganglion Cells [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Across all species, retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are the first retinal neurons generated during development, followed by the other retinal cell types. How are retinal progenitor cells (RPCs) able to produce these cell types in a specific and timely order?
