Dexamethasone Protects Retinal Ganglion Cells But Not Muller Glia Against Hyperglycemia In Vitro
(Public Library Science, 2018-11-26)
Diabetic retinopathy (DR) is a common complication of diabetes, for which hyperglycemia is a major etiological factor. It is known that retinal glia (Muller cells) and retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are affected by diabetes, ...
Effect of Hypoxia on the Retina and Superior Colliculus of Neonatal Pigs
(Public LIbrary Science, 2017-04-13)
Purpose
To evaluate the effect of hypoxia on the neonatal pig retina and brain, we analysed the retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and neurons in the superior colliculus, as well as the response of astrocytes in both these ...
Comparative lipidomic analysis of mammalian retinal ganglion cells and Muller glia in situ and in vitro using High-Resolution Imaging Mass Spectrometry
(Nature, 2020-11-18)
In order to better understand retinal physiology, alterations to which underlie some ocular diseases, we set out to establish the lipid signature of two fundamental cell types in the retina, Muller Glia and Retinal Ganglion ...
Differential Distribution of RBPMS in Pig, Rat, and Human Retina after Damage
(MDPI, 2020-12-07)
RNA binding protein with multiple splicing (RBPMS) is expressed exclusively in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in the retina and can label all RGCs in normal retinas of mice, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, cats, and monkeys, ...
The mito-QC Reporter for Quantitative Mitophagy Assessment in Primary Retinal Ganglion Cells and Experimental Glaucoma Models
(MDPI, 2020-03-10)
Mitochondrial damage plays a prominent role in glaucoma. The only way cells can degrade whole mitochondria is via autophagy, in a process called mitophagy. Thus, studying mitophagy in the context of glaucoma is essential ...
Neuroprotection of retinal ganglion cells by Müller Glia in vitro in health and disease
(2019-10-07)
Las células ganglionares de la retina (RGCs) son las únicas neuronas aferentes de la retina y transmiten la información visual al cerebro a través de sus axones, que forman el nervio óptico y su muerte causa una ceguera ...
Effects of Adult Müller Cells and Their Conditioned Media on the Survival of Stem Cell-Derived Retinal Ganglion Cells
(MDPI, 2020-07-22)
Retinal neurons, particularly retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), are susceptible to the degenerative damage caused by different inherited conditions and environmental insults, leading to irreversible vision loss and, ultimately, ...
Neuroprotective Strategies for Retinal Ganglion Cell Degeneration: Current Status and Challenges Ahead
(MDPI, 2020-03-25)
The retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are the output cells of the retina into the brain. In mammals, these cells are not able to regenerate their axons after optic nerve injury, leaving the patients with optic neuropathies ...
