Estudio de la retina periférica (Lesiones predisponentes al desprendimiento de la retina)
… de los años cincuenta un período en el que la Retina Periférica ha ido tomando una relevancia cada vez mayor. Desde entonces se ha ocupado de ella diversas Escuelas en distintas partes del mundo, realizando estudios anatomopatológicos y clínicos, destacando los grupos de SCHEPENS en Boston, …

Inhibierende Netzwerke in der äußeren Retina
Horizontalzellen der Retina bilden ein über Gap Junctions gekoppeltes Netzwerk, das für die rezeptiven Felder nachgeschalteter Neurone essentiell ist. Die Horizontalzellen in einer Connexin57-Knockout-Maus, in der die interzellulären Kanäle dieser Zellen fehlen, zeigen verkleinerte rezeptive …

Effect of Drugs on Rabbit Retina
… isolated cone function, but it does not affect retinal morphology. Ranibizumab, bevacizumab, and pegaptanib are inhibitors of the cytokine vascular endothelial growth factor. Pegaptanib and ranibizumab are approved for injection into the vitreous. Bevacizumab is a cancer drug injected off-label …

Calcium-dependent mechanisms in the chicken retina
Multiple classes of retinal amacrine cells use L-type Ca2+ channels to mediate synaptic transmission. I have used whole cell voltage clamp recordings from primary cultures of amacrine cells to investigate the regulation of these channels. In this study, I show that inhibiting mitochondrial calcium …

S-nitrosylation mediates synaptic plasticity in the retina
… by a factor of 10¹⁰. In order to do so, the retina adapts to large, daily changes in natural light intensity by shifting its dynamic range of coding. For example, as morning light intensity increases, the retina implements multiple strategies that result in decreases in overall sensitivity in …

Target Motion Discrimination with Model Retina and Cortex
… of its lateral geniculate nucleus. Turtle's retina model also shown the capability of discriminating motion targets verifying the biological experimental results. However, the two models are studied separately and driven by different input stimuli in the past. Here, in this thesis we will be …

Nuove prospettive terapeutiche per la protezione della retina
… neuroprotettive. La neurodegenerazione della retina è caratterizzata dalla deprivazione di neurotrofine, come il brain-derived growth factor (BDNF) o il nerve growth factor (NGF). Infatti, il trattamento con neurotrofine esogene o con farmaci che stimolano l’espressione di queste, …

Longitudinal Visualization of Neurodegeneration: Digital Biopsy of the Retina
As treatment for most retinal diseases only begins after vision impairing degeneration is detectable, a better understanding of what changes lead to neurodegeneration is required. Due to the isolated physiology of the eye, the classical markers of inflammation are not detectable in-vivo without an …

Optical frequency domain imaging of human retina and choroid
… preventing them from effective screening of the retina and having a larger impact on the clinical environment. While other technological advances have addressed this problem, they are inadequate for imaging the choroid, which can be useful for evaluating choroidal disorders as well as early …

Retina: Cross-Layered Key-Value Store using Computational Storage
… we propose a cross-layered key-value store named Retina that decouples the design to delegate control path manipulations to host CPU and data path manipulations to computational SSD to maximize performance and reduce compute bottlenecks. We employ many design choices not explored in other …

The Role of Fractalkine-mediated Neuroprotection in the Diabetic Retina
… Inflammation caused by microglia exacerbates retinal pathology. Microglia, the resident immune cells of the central nervous system (CNS), become activated due to hyperglycemia and are believed to contribute to the development of DR. The microglia-neuronal crosstalk mediated by CX3CR1 and …

Decoding the Little Skate Retina: Structural Variants and Developmental Dynamics
<p>The retinal development of Elasmobranchs (the superclass comprising sharks, skates and rays) is a poorly understood phenomenon, but it represents a critical component of the broader picture of vertebrate visual development. Evolutionary divergence between these organisms and the mammals is vast, …

Mach bands, Hermann grid, and lateral inhibition in the retina
