Time courses of excitation and inhibition in retinal ganglion cells
(1970)
Latencies of the different types of ganglion cell responses to stimulation within a receptive field were measured in guinea pigs. The latency of the response evoked by stimulation of the center or intermediate zone was ...
TRPV1 receptors are involved in protein nitration and Muller cell reaction in the acutely axotomized rat retina
(ACADEMIC PRESS LTD- ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2010)
We report here the protein expression of TRPV1 receptor in axotomized rat retinas and its possible participation in mechanisms involved in retinal ganglion cell (RGC) death. Adult rats were subjected to unilateral, ...
Histological, morphometric, protein and gene expression analyses of rat retinas with ischaemia-reperfusion injury model treated with sildenafil citrate
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2017-06-01)
The aim of this study was to better understand the role of apoptosis in a retinal ischaemia-reperfusion injury model and to determine whether sildenafil citrate treatment can prevent retinal cell apoptosis. Thirty-six rats ...
The trophic effect of ouabain on retinal ganglion cells is mediated by IL-1β and TNF-α
(Public Library of Science, 2016)
Effect of experimental diabetic retinopathy on the non-image-forming visual system
(Taylor & Francis, 2013-05)
Diabetic retinopathy is a leading cause of blindness. Intrinsically photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (ipRGCs), which express the photopigment melanopsin, are involved in non-image-forming visual responses such as ...
A SUBPOPULATION OF DISPLACED GANGLION-CELLS OF THE PIGEON RETINA EXHIBITS SUBSTANCE P-LIKE IMMUNOREACTIVITY
(Elsevier B.V., 1991-04-12)
Immunohistochemical and retrograde tracing techniques were combined to demonstrate the occurrence of displaced ganglion cells (DGCs) exhibiting substance P-like immunoreactivity (SP-LI) in the pigeon retina. Following ...
Therapeutic benefit of radial optic neurotomy in a rat model of glaucoma
(Public Library Of Science, 2012-03)
Radial optic neurotomy (RON) has been proposed as a surgical treatment to alleviate the neurovascular compression and to improve the venous outflow in patients with central retinal vein occlusion. Glaucoma is characterized ...
Neuroprotective effect of melatonin loaded in ethylcellulose nanoparticles applied topically in a retinal degeneration model in rabbits
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-11)
We are reporting for the first time the synthesis and application of an innovative nanometric system for the controlled topic release of melatonin in the retina. The ethylcellulose nanocapsules were characterized by diverse ...
Speed-Selectivity in Retinal Ganglion Cells is Sharpened by Broad Spatial Frequency, Naturalistic Stimuli
(2019)
Motion detection represents one of the critical tasks of the visual system and has motivated a large body of research. However, it remains unclear precisely why the response of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) to simple ...
Expression of non-visual opsins Opn3 and Opn5 in the developing inner retinal cells of birds. Light-responses in Müller Glial Cells
(Frontiers Media S.A., 2019-08)
The avian retina is composed of different types of photoreceptors responsible for image and non-image forming tasks: the visual photoreceptor cells (cones and rods), the melanopsin-expressing intrinsically photoresponsive ...
