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

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.This review presents recent progress in vision‐augmented wearable interfaces that combine artificial vision, soft wearable sensors, and exoskeletal robots. Inspired by biological visual systems, these technologies enable multimodal perception and intelligent human–machine interaction.

A Method to Evaluate the Stimulation of a Real World Field of View by Means of a Spectroradiometric Analysis [PDF]
, 2015 Stimulation elicited by a real world field of view is related to the color, the intensity and the direction of the information reaching the eye: different spectral power distributions of light trigger different responses. An evaluation of the stimulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Ectodermal tissue excised from Xenopus embryos self‐organizes into a three‐dimensional mucociliary organoid. Here, we generate a neural variant, termed neurobot, by implanting neural precursor cells. Neurobots develop mature neurons, adopt distinct morphologies, exhibit more complex motility, and respond differentially to neuroactive compounds. Imaging

Tumour-associated retinal pigment epitheliopathy [PDF]
Eye, 1990 Choroidal tumours are associated with several degenerative changes in the overlying tissues, which can be called 'Tumour-Associated Retinal Pigment Epitheliopathy (TARPE)'. These changes include (i) proliferation, detachment, atrophy, and metaplasia of the retinal pigment epithelium, (ii) the accumulation of hard and soft drusen and basal laminar ...

Absorption Characteristics of Vertebrate Non-Visual Opsin, Opn3. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Most animals possess multiple opsins which sense light for visual and non-visual functions. Here, we show spectral characteristics of non-visual opsins, vertebrate Opn3s, which are widely distributed among vertebrates. We successfully expressed zebrafish

Adult-Onset Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis in a Shikoku Inu
Veterinary Sciences, 2021 A two-year-and-eleven-month-old male Shikoku Inu was referred for evaluation of progressive gait abnormality that had begun three months prior. Neurological examination revealed ventral flexion of the neck, a wide-based stance in the hindlimb, wide ...

Embedded CRISPRi Enhances Gene‐Silencing Efficiency in Drosophila
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Current CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) technology in Drosophila has limited efficiency. This study introduces the emCRISPRi platform, which significantly enhances transcriptional silencing efficacy by embedding inhibitory domains within the dCas9 architecture.

Retinoid isomerase inhibitors impair but do not block mammalian cone photoreceptor function [PDF]
, 2018 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 ...
