Efficacy of Fampridine on Refractory Optic Neuritis in Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders (NMOSD) usually occur with acute refractory optic neuritis (ON). However, there is a lack of efficacious treatments to improve recovery. Since fampridine has been found to improve the prognosis of multiple sclerosis (MS) and MS‐related ON, it is necessary to explore the efficacy of fampridine ...

Graft survival of major histocompatibility complex deficient stem cell-derived retinal cells

Communications Medicine
Background Gene editing of immunomodulating molecules is a potential transplantation strategy to control immune rejection. As we noticed the successful transplantation of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) derived from embryonic stem cells of a cynomolgus ...

Detection of Retinal Pigment Epithelium-Specific Antibody in iPSC-Derived Retinal Pigment Epithelium Transplantation Models

Stem Cell Reports, 2017
Summary: Antibody-mediated rejection is characterized by donor-specific antibody produced by B cells. However, to our knowledge, B cell invasion and antibody in the inflamed retina after transplantation of retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells has not ...

Stabilization of the retinal vascular network by reciprocal feedback between blood vessels and astrocytes [PDF]

, 2005
Development of the retinal vasculature is controlled by a hierarchy of interactions among retinal neurons, astrocytes and blood vessels. Retinal neurons release platelet-derived growth factor (PDGFA) to stimulate proliferation of astrocytes, which in ...

Identification and characterization of human retinal stem cells capable of retinal regeneration

Science Translational Medicine, 2023
Abstract Human retinal stem cells hold great promise in regenerative medicine, yet their existence and characteristics remain elusive. Here, we preformed single-cell multi-omics and spatial transcriptomics of human fetal retinas and uncovered a novel cell subpopulation, human neural retinal stem-like cells (hNRSCs), distinct from RPE stem-like ...
