Morphological changes in injured retinal pigment epithelium and photoreceptor cells after transplantation of stem cells into subretinal space
Introduction: Degenerative retinal diseases are main cause of irreversible blindness. Stem cells therapy is a promising way in these diseases. Therefore, mesenchymal stem cells because of its safety can produce degenerated cells and can play important role in treatment. The aim of this study was to examine morphological changes in injured retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and photoreceptor cells...
متن کاملActin-dependent pigment granule transport in retinal pigment epithelial cells.
Since diffusion of particles as large as vesicles or organelles is constrained by the high viscosity of cytoplasm, directed translocation of these particles from one cytoplasmic site to another must be achieved by cytoskeletal intervention. In most cases, this is achieved by attaching the particle to a molecular motor which then navigates along a microtubule or an actin filament track (Fath and...
متن کاملAutophagy in visual cells and pigment epithelium
In the process of autophagy, parts of the cell's own cytoplasm are enclosed by membranes and digested by enzymes. The phenomenon of intracellular degradation is well known to occur in various tissues under different conditions. Autophagy in vertebrate visual cells was observed by Reme and Young, in the retina of hibernating ground squirreh, but has not been documented in vertebrate visual cells...
متن کاملMalaria pigment paralyzes dendritic cells
The capacity of malarial infection to suppress the patient's immune responses both to the parasite and to other antigens has long puzzled researchers. A prime suspect, the parasite-produced pigment hemozoin, has now been clearly shown to mediate immunosuppression by inhibiting dendritic cell activity.
متن کاملCalcium-independent regulation of pigment granule aggregation and dispersion in teleost retinal pigment epithelial cells.
In the eyes of teleosts and amphibians, melanin pigment granules of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) migrate in response to changes in light conditions. In the light, pigment granules disperse into the cells' long apical projections, thereby shielding the rod photoreceptor outer segments and reducing their extent of bleach. In darkness, pigment granules aggregate towards the base of the RPE...
