"We know that AMD starts in the outer blood-retina barrier," said Kapil Bharti, Ph.D., who heads the NEI Section on Ocular and Stem Cell Translational Research. "However, mechanisms of AMD initiation ...
On day nine, the scientists seeded retinal pigment epithelial cells on the flip side of the scaffold. The printed tissue reached full maturity on day 42. Tissue analyses and genetic and functional ...
In the retina, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) affects the complex of photoreceptors, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE), Bruch’s membrane (BM) and the choriocapillaris, the innermost layer of ...
Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of irreversible vision loss in persons over the age of 50. While poorly understood, AMD pathogenesis begins with structural disorganization ...
(Nanowerk News) Scientists, under the guidance of Professor Barbara Pierscionek from Anglia Ruskin University (ARU), have achieved a groundbreaking breakthrough by utilizing nanotechnology to ...
RPE cells displaying cobblestone morphology. Cells were immunolabeled with tight-junction ZO-1 marker (shown in green) and co-stained with nuclei marker, Hoechst (shown in blue). Image Credit: ...
“These findings potentially support employing anti-aging therapies such as senolytic pharmacologic compounds to prevent or ameliorate progression to AMD [...]” “This matter is, therefore, critical for ...
Scientists have found a way to use nanotechnology to create a 3D ‘scaffold’ to grow cells from the retina –paving the way for potential new ways of treating a common cause of blindness. Researchers, ...
