Blocking the PROX1 protein allowed KAIST researchers to regenerate damaged retinas and restore vision in mice. Vision is one ...

We have investigated whether electronic glasses can improve function for persons with tunnel vision due to retinitis pigmentosa and those with visual field loss after a stroke. Electronic glasses ...

Researchers have uncovered the 3D structure of RBP3, a key protein in vision, revealing how it transports retinoids and fatty ...

A team of Brown University researchers has identified a promising new approach that may one day help to restore vision in ...

Scientists have associated this deterioration with a variety of ocular diseases, such as retinitis pigmentosa (RP), which encompasses a group of inherited diseases, and age-related macular ...

This paper reports a clinical case of retinitis due to congenital CMV infection in a preterm infant and reviews the relevant literature. Case presentation: A 2-day-old female infant at 36 +2 gestation ...

For individuals with inherited eye disorders such as retinitis pigmentosa or macular degeneration, the irreversible degeneration of the retina—a layer of photoreceptors at the back of the eye—can ...

Figure 2. Retinal regeneration and visual recovery in a retinitis pigmentosa model mouse through Anti-PROX1 gene therapy. After administration of adeno-associated virus expressing PROX1 ...

Conditions such as retinitis pigmentosa and age-related macular degeneration involve the irreversible loss of light-sensitive neural cells in the retina. While current treatments may slow ...
