The center–surround receptive-field organization in retinal ganglion cells is widely believed to result mainly from lateral inhibition at the first synaptic level (in the outer retina).

We individually stimulated subregions of the receptive fields of retinal ganglion cells and asked whether separate regions within a ganglion cell's receptive field adapt individually. Can the ...

Wenzhou Medical University and collaborating institutions have identified a population of human neural retinal stem-like ...

"We discovered that abnormal tau proteins accumulate in retinal ganglion cells, which are key nerve cells in the eye that send information to the brain," said Maya Koronyo-Hamaoui, Ph.D ...

Glaucoma is one of the leading causes of global irreversible blindness. It is characterized by a progressive loss of retinal ganglion cells with corresponding optic nerve alterations and visual field ...

The data captured is then used to group similar cells together, giving in-depth insight into the nature of all the cell types found in the organoid, including rod and cone photoreceptors and other ...
