Müller Glia Cell Activation in a Laser-induced Retinal Degeneration and Regeneration Model in Zebrafish. [PDF]
A fascinating difference between teleost and mammals is the lifelong potential of the teleost retina for retinal neurogenesis and regeneration after severe damage.

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

Retinal Regeneration![Figure][1] Glia cell progenitors (cyan) divide after retina damage CREDIT: K. RAJARAM ET AL., DEVELOPMENTAL BIOLOGY 392 , 393 © ELSEVIER LIMITED Damage to the retina causes blindness in humans but not in zebrafish. Muller glia, a cell type shared by both mammals and zebrafish, helps zebrafish retinas regenerate. Rajaram et al.

Mutation of IPO13 causes recessive ocular coloboma, microphthalmia, and cataract
Hereditary eye disease: Looking for blindness in the family tree In-depth genomic analysis of the family of a young man with severe visual impairment reveals a new gene involved in eye development. Ocular coloboma encompasses various hereditary disorders

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