Sentences with phrase «host photoreceptor»

These data suggest that human iPS - RPE cells are able to contribute to host photoreceptor cell integrity by removing retinal debris at this time - point.

Not exact matches

But illumination of the network with a brief flash (10 milliseconds) of blue light causes each of these bacterial photoreceptors to jolt their host cell a bit.

A concomitant preservation of host cone photoreceptors was also observed.

Both unmodified and genetically modified groups were found to have cells that migrated and survived in two distinct locations: (i) as a separate, nearly continuous, subretinal layer lying between the host RPE and photoreceptors, and (ii) as individual cells distributed throughout the neurosensory retina, especially within the inner retinal layers (Figure 5A).

Qualitative examination of the host anatomical response to the presence of hNPCctx or hNPCctx - GDNF revealed substantial preservation of the photoreceptor outer nuclear layer (ONL) overlying all subretinal donor cells (Figure 5E and F), with photoreceptor rescue gradually declining outside the distribution of the transplanted cells (Figure 5E and G).

To examine host cone photoreceptors, we performed antibody staining for cone arrestin antigen.

iPS - RPE cells were injected into the subretinal space between the host RPE and photoreceptor cells (B) A layer of iPS - RPE cells in the subretinal space of the dystrophic RCS rat 20 hours following transplantation.

Conservation of visual acuity in the iPS - RPE transplanted eyes was associated with the preservation of photoreceptors in the host outer nuclear layer (ONL — Fig. 7A), identified by the expression of rhodopsin in the outer segments of photoreceptors (Fig. 7A inset, Dystrophic + transplant).
