Retinoic Acid Signalling Regulates Zebrafish Tooth Germ Repair Following Injury
Retinoic acid signalling may regulate the repair processes in a tooth germ injury model using Tg(scpp5:Dendra2‐NTR) zebrafish and the nitroreductase (NTR)/metronidazole (MTZ) system. ABSTRACT Although the role of retinoic acid (RA) signalling in odontogenesis is well established, its involvement in the repair of injured tooth germs remains unclear.

Genome-wide screening of mouse knockouts reveals novel genes required for normal integumentary and oculocutaneous structure and function. [PDF]
Oculocutaneous syndromes are often due to mutations in single genes. In some cases, mouse models for these diseases exist in spontaneously occurring mutations, or in mice resulting from forward mutatagenesis screens.

Neurological disorders are hard to treat. Stem cell‐derived neural organoids enable research, and their transplantation aids CNS therapy, with this article reviewing relevant advances, challenges and prospects. ABSTRACT Neurological disorders are often devastating and notoriously difficult to repair, creating an urgent need for novel research models ...

Cyclic AMP modulation of ion transport across frog retinal pigment epithelium. Measurements in the short-circuit state. [PDF]
In the frog retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), the cellular levels of cyclic AMP (cAMP) were measured in control conditions and after treatment with substances that are known to inhibit phosphodiesterase (PDE) activity (isobutyl-1-methylxanthine, SQ65442)

The technical and practical implementation of fundus photography in equids
Summary Background Fundus photography is an important diagnostic tool in human and veterinary medicine. Advances in research are increasing its accessibility in human medicine. However, there is a lack of studies on modern fundus photography in animals, particularly in horses. Objectives To assess the use of a portable fundus camera developed for human

Genome editing by CRISPR-Cas holds promise for the treatment of retinal dystrophies. For therapeutic gene editing, transient delivery of CRISPR-Cas9 is preferable to viral delivery which leads to long-term expression with potential adverse consequences ...

Induction of dark-adaptive retinomotor movement (cell elongation) in teleost retinal cones by cyclic adenosine 3,5-monophosphate. [PDF]
In the teleost retina, the photoreceptors and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) undergo extensive movements (called retinomotor movements) in response to changes in light conditions and to an endogenous circadian rhythm.

Retinoid isomerase inhibitors impair but do not block mammalian cone photoreceptor function [PDF]
Visual function in vertebrates critically depends on the continuous regeneration of visual pigments in rod and cone photoreceptors. RPE65 is a well-established retinoid isomerase in the pigment epithelium that regenerates rhodopsin during the rod visual ...
