The mammalian retina provides an excellent opportunity to study glia–neuron interactions
and the interactions of glia with blood vessels. Three main types of glial cells are found in …

Retinal neurodegenerative diseases like age-related macular degeneration, glaucoma,
diabetic retinopathy and retinitis pigmentosa each have a different etiology and …

The mechanisms limiting neuronal regeneration in mammals and their relationship with
reactive gliosis are unknown. Müller glia (MG), common to all vertebrate retinas, readily …

Degeneration of specific retinal neurons in diseases like glaucoma, age-related macular
degeneration, and retinitis pigmentosa is the leading cause of irreversible blindness …

Human adult dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) are self-renewing stem cells that originate from
the neural crest during development and remain within the dental pulp niche through …

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are highly plastic cells that are able to transdifferentiate or
dedifferentiate under appropriate conditions. In the present study, we reported here that after …

Müller cells are the major glial cells spanning the entire layer of the retina and maintaining
retinal structure. Under pathological conditions, Müller cells are involved in retinal …

Retinal degenerative diseases are a leading cause of visual impairment or blindness. There
are many therapies for delaying the progression of vision loss but no curative strategies …

Müller glia (MG) is the most abundant glial type in the vertebrate retina. Among its many
functions, it is capable of responding to injury by dedifferentiating, proliferating, and …

Cell-type determination is a complex process driven by the combinatorial effect of extrinsic
signals and the expression of transcription factors and regulatory genes. MicroRNAs …
