Sentences with phrase «maintenance of photoreceptor cell»

Not exact matches

In particular we are interested to unravel the mechanisms that ensure the maintenance of the apical membrane when exposed to physical stress, e. g. during morphogenesis of epithelial tissues, or when exposed to light stress in photoreceptor cells, using Drosophila and zebrafish as model organisms.

Whereas the genes implicated in early - onset diseases are those necessary for the correct development of photoreceptors the genes associated with later - onset forms of disease are those necessary for the long - term maintenance and function of these cells.
