retina, central nervous system and the adrenal gland. Despite identification of the gene almost 10 years ago, we are only now beginning to understand how VHL functions in the cell and how its ...

An experimental study in mice shows that SARS-CoV-2 infection can damage the retinas, with long-term implications for vision.

This pathway depends on the crossing of neurons from one side of the central nervous system (CNS ... All axons from the retina must properly connect to a precise spatial pattern in the brain ...

Light passes through the eyeball to the retina. There are two main types of light receptors called rods and cones. Rods are more sensitive to light than cones so they are useful for seeing in dim ...

In both cases, rays of light do not focus on the retina so a clear image is not formed. These two defects are treated with spectacle lenses, which refract (bend) the light rays so that they do ...

An experimental study in mice shows that SARS-CoV-2 infection can damage the retinas, with long-term implications for vision.

"This kind of gene therapy that controls tau production can be designed to target neurons in the brain and central nervous ...
