The slow component b, which also carries actin, are transported at a rate of 2-3 millimeters per day in retinal cell axons.
32.
However, simulations of the resultant pixelated images assume that all electrodes on the implant are in contact with the desired retinal cell.
33.
The second hit results in the loss of the remaining normal allele ( gene ) and occurs within a particular retinal cell.
34.
The gene is expressed early in the eye primordia, and is required for retinal cell fate determination and also regulates stem cell proliferation.
35.
Verma's lab has used the vector to incorporate genes into the brain, liver, muscle, bone marrow and retinal cells of rats or mice.
36.
Likely, gene therapy may preserve remaining healthy retinal cells while failing to repair the earlier accumulation of damage in already diseased photoreceptor cells.
37.
The retinal cells, which normally are fixed in layers of the retina in the back of the eye, cling to the beads for stability.
38.
Retinal cell transplantation involves moving healthy retinal cells from an area of the eye not yet affected by RP into an area already in decline.
39.
The retinal cells send impulses through the optic nerve and then they form a mapping in the brain of the visual features of the object.
40.
Retinal cell transplantation involves moving healthy retinal cells from an area of the eye not yet affected by RP into an area already in decline.
