Shihabeddin et al utilized single-cell RNA-Seq analysis of adult P23H zebrafish animals to identify transcription factors (e2fs, Prdm1a, Sp1) expressed selectively in neural progenitors and immature ...

A new study has found that blood vessels in the retina may hold early clues about a person’s risk of developing dementia.

It consists of layers of neurons: light-sensitive photoreceptor cells, bipolar cells, horizontal cells, amacrine cells and retinal ganglion cells, which transmit the visual information to other ...

The risk score test used 2,673 genetic variants, and the study assessed IOP, macular retinal nerve fiber layer thickness, macular ganglion cell inner plexiform layer thickness and prevalent ...

Individuals who have healthier lifestyle scores and lower inflammation are more likely to have better retinal neurovascular health.

The experimenter was blinded to the identity of the retinal sections and from the 40x images, a count was made. Only in focus RGCs entirely contained within a section were counted, and only those ...

In celebration of Ophthalmology Times 50th anniversary, we asked leading experts in the field what they see as the biggest ...

Axonal fibers from ganglion cells in the retina merge to form the optic nerve, which sends visual signals to the visual center via the optic disc. Defects in the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL) and ...
