Methylnitrosourea (MNU)-induced retinal degeneration and regeneration in the zebrafish: histological and functional characteristics.

open access: yes, 2014
Retinal degenerative diseases, e.g. retinitis pigmentosa, with resulting photoreceptor damage account for the majority of vision loss in the industrial world. Animal models are of pivotal importance to study such diseases.

Inhibition of T cell-mediated inflammation in uveitis by a novel anti-CD3 antibody

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2017
Background A novel anti-mouse CD3ε antibody, Dow2, recognizes mouse CD3ε without activating T cells and suppresses T-cell activation. The purpose of this study was to determine whether Dow2 can inhibit T cells in uveitis.

Use of Lectins to Enrich Mouse ES-Derived Retinal Progenitor Cells for the Purpose of Transplantation Therapy

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2010
Using the mouse ES cell line with green fluorescent protein knocked-in at the Rx locus (Rx-KI ES cell), we previously showed that photoreceptors can be efficiently obtained in defined culture conditions by enriching Rx-positive retinal progenitor cells ...

Successful Transplantation of Retinal Pigment Epithelial Cells from MHC Homozygote iPSCs in MHC-Matched Models

open access: yesStem Cell Reports, 2016
There is an ongoing controversy as to whether major histocompatibility complex (MHC) matching is a solution for allogeneic stem cell transplantation. In the present study, we established retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells from induced pluripotent ...

Adult limbal neurosphere cells: a potential autologous cell resource for retinal cell generation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The Corneal limbus is a readily accessible region at the front of the eye, separating the cornea and sclera. Neural colonies (neurospheres) can be generated from adult corneal limbus in vitro.
