In advanced dry disease, a key problem is failure of retinal pigment epithelium, often shortened to RPE. These cells help ...

Scientists at USC are launching a new trial to test a tiny stem cell implant that could restore vision in people with ...

Until now, it has been difficult to maintain retinal ganglion cells deep inside organoids over extended periods. The supply ...

This story is part of a series on the current progression in Regenerative Medicine. This piece is part of a series dedicated to the eye, and it marks the first of a three-part series on dry ...

Human stem cell transplants successfully repaired macular holes in a monkey model, researchers report. After transplantation, the macular holes were closed by continuous filling of the space with ...

Researchers from Bonn and Basel have developed a new method to equip human retinal organoids – small, lab-grown models of ...

Scientists have found a way to use nanotechnology to create a 3D ‘scaffold’ to grow cells from the retina –paving the way for potential new ways of treating a common cause of blindness. Researchers, ...

The vertebrate retina is a highly organised neural circuit, comprising diverse cell types that transform light into the complex neural codes underlying vision. At the forefront are photoreceptors, ...

For the first time, an international research team led by Nanyang Technological University, Singapore (NTU Singapore) has recorded a tiny mechanical "twitch" in living human and rodent eyes at the ...

This stunning image may look like a particularly lively Jackson Pollock painting, but it’s actually an example of a new cell imaging technique. The subject? A human retina. In fluorescence microscopy, ...

Identification of a nitric oxide-regulated transitional state of Müller glia reveals a key mechanism enabling neuronal regeneration in the injured vertebrate retina.
