Identifying mechanisms of cell–cell interactions initiated by rod-specific mutations and affecting other retinal cells is important for understanding the pathogenesis and progression of retinal ...

Genetic analysis of retinal cells reveals that schizophrenia risk genes are linked to specific retinal neurons, particularly amacrine cells, which are crucial for synaptic communication.

They may be the window to the soul, but researchers have found the eyes also give an insight into the brain that could help ...

Discover the importance of vision, genetic eye disorders, and RNA-based therapies for precision treatment in India and ...

Two new compounds may be able to treat retinitis pigmentosa, a group of inherited eye diseases that cause blindness. The compounds were identified using a virtual screening approach.

AI-powered research on one of the largest eye studies to date has created the most detailed maps of the retina ever produced.

In this Healio Video Perspective from Retina 2025, Allen C. Ho, MD, discusses the growing promise of optogenetic therapy in treating patients with retinal disease.

causing retinal cells to die off and leading to progressive blindness. Small molecules to correct rhodopsin folding are urgently needed to treat the estimated 100,000 people in the United States ...

Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a group of monogenic disorders caused by mutations in more than 280 genes, and are characterized by progressive degeneration of photoreceptor cells in the retina.

IIT's research group saw for the first time that Ziapin2 also acts in a similar manner on neurons in the inner retina unaffected by degeneration, particularly at the bipolar-cell level ...
