Proteins are fundamental biomolecules that perform a broad range of vital functions within the human body. They serve as an essential structural and functional component of cells, tissues and organs ...

A new study suggests that never-seen-before stem cells in the human retina can restore vision in mice with a common eye disorder. But more work is needed to translate the treatment to people.

It shows the molecular basis for precise photoreceptor spacing crucial for optimal vision and creates opportunities for investigating similar mechanisms in human retinal disorders. This knowledge ...

Human “bodyoids” could reduce animal testing, improve drug development, and alleviate organ shortages. Why do we hear about medical breakthroughs in mice, but rarely see them translate into ...

It shows the molecular basis for precise photoreceptor spacing crucial for optimal vision and creates opportunities for investigating similar mechanisms in human retinal disorders. This knowledge ...

However, the human body evolved to function in the gravity ... including to the optic nerve, retina and even the shape of the eye. And this "spaceflight-associated neuro-ocular syndrome" can ...

Introduction: Genetic manipulation of murine retinal tissue through ocular administration of adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) has become a standard technique to investigate a multitude of mechanisms ...

Clicking two parts together with a twist of its servo-controlled wrists, and handing it to a human colleague is a basic task. But it's also an important moment in the much-hyped world of human ...
