Mashup Score: 0Scientists pinpoint genetic target with promise for treating many forms of blindness - 2 year(s) ago
Developing therapies for genetic forms of blindness is extremely challenging, in part because they vary so widely, but scientists from Trinity College Dublin have highlighted a target with great promise for treating a range of these conditions. The scientists have highlighted that a specific gene (SARM1) is a key driver in the damage that ultimately leads to impaired vision (and sometimes…

Mashup Score: 0Serotonin transporter-mediated molecular axis regulates regional retinal ganglion cell vulnerability and axon regeneration after nerve injury - 2 year(s) ago
Author summary Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are the only neurons in the retina that convey visual information to the brain, doing so via the optic nerve. Major causes of optic nerve damage and subsequent RGC death are ocular trauma and optic neuropathies. At the end-stage pathology in the retina, remaining RGCs have high neuroprotective capacity, and active resilience mechanisms exist. In…
