Retinal Ganglion Cell Death [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
1.1 Topographic and cellular organization of the retina The retina is the thin (0.2 mm) lining of the back of the eye that gathers light focused on it by the cornea and lens. The retina has a complex laminar organization; cells are organized into layers (Fig. 1). These layers are named by reference to the middle of the eyeball; the innermost layers are

The functional diversity of retinal ganglion cells in the mouse

open access: yesNature, 2015
In the vertebrate visual system, all output of the retina is carried by retinal ganglion cells. Each type encodes distinct visual features in parallel for transmission to the brain. How many such ‘output channels’ exist and what each encodes are areas of

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.

A Novel Reporter Mouse Uncovers Endogenous Brn3b Expression. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Brn3b (Pou4f2) is a class-4 POU domain transcription factor known to play central roles in the development of different neuronal populations of the Central Nervous System, including retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), the neurons that connect the retina with ...

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

open access: yesNeural 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

open access: yesBiology, 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 ...

Elevated expression of human bHLH factor ATOH7 accelerates cell cycle progression of progenitors and enhances production of avian retinal ganglion cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The production of vertebrate retinal projection neurons, retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), is regulated by cell-intrinsic determinants and cell-to-cell signaling events.

Therapeutic potential of co-enzyme Q10 in retinal diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) plays a critical role in mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation by serving as an electron carrier in the respiratory electron transport chain.

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

open access: yesFolia 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 ...

Single cell transcriptome profiling of retinal ganglion cells identifies cellular subtypes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) convey the major output of information collected from the eye to the brain. Thirty subtypes of RGCs have been identified to date. Here, we analyze 6225 RGCs (average of 5000 genes per cell) from right and left eyes by single-
