Retinal Ganglion Cells Can Rapidly Change Polarity from Off to On
Retinal ganglion cells are commonly classified as On-center or Off-center depending on whether they are excited predominantly by brightening or dimming within the receptive field. Here we report that many ganglion cells in the salamander retina can switch from one response type to the other, depending on stimulus events far from the receptive field. Specifically, a shift of the peripheral image...
متن کاملStem Cells in Glaucoma Management
Glaucoma is the leading cause of preventable blindness worldwide. Despite tremendous advances in medical and surgical management of glaucoma in the recent years, the prevalence of glaucoma related blindness is anticipated to increase in the future decades because of the aging population. Stem cells have the potential to change the glaucoma management in several ways. There are several areas of ...
متن کاملDevelopmental time course distinguishes changes in spontaneous and light-evoked retinal ganglion cell activity in rd1 and rd10 mice.
In a subset of hereditary retinal diseases, early photoreceptor degeneration causes rapidly progressive blindness in children. To better understand how retinal development may interact with degenerative processes, we compared spontaneous and light-evoked activity among retinal ganglion cells in rd1 and rd10 mice, strains with closely related retinal disease. In each, a mutation in the Pde6b gen...
متن کاملCorrelated firing among major ganglion cell types in primate retina.
Retinal ganglion cells exhibit substantial correlated firing: a tendency to fire nearly synchronously at rates different from those expected by chance. These correlations suggest that network interactions significantly shape the visual signal transmitted from the eye to the brain. This study describes the degree and structure of correlated firing among the major ganglion cell types in primate r...
متن کاملP129: Use of Stem Cells to Regenerate Degenerative Optic Nerve
Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the ability to convert to different types of cells and after dividing, they can produce their own cells or other cells. Axons of the retinal ganglion cells, from the optic nerve. These cells lose the ability to regenerate themselves before birth. Optic nerve degeneration can result from various causes including increased intraocular pressure, comp...
