Photoreceptor cell death is the ultimate cause of vision loss in various retinal disorders,
including retinal detachment (RD). Photoreceptor cell death has been thought to occur …

Retinal detachment, the separation of the neural retina from the retinal pigmented
epithelium, starts a cascade of events that results in cellular changes throughout the retina …

Photoreceptor apoptosis is a major cause of visual loss in retinal detachment (RD) and
several other visual disorders, but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Recently …

PURPOSE: Although photoreceptor cell apoptosis has been demonstrated in various animal
models of retinal detachment (RD), little is known about its occurrence in human RD. We …

BAX, the BCL-2-associated X protein, is a cardinal proapoptotic member of the BCL-2 family,
which regulates the critical balance between cellular life and death. Because so many …

purpose. To characterize the reactions of retinal glial cells (astrocytes and Müller cells) to
retinal injury in mice that lack glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and vimentin (GFAP …

Apoptotic cell death is implicated in both physiological and pathological processes. Since
many types of cancerous cells intrinsically evade apoptotic elimination, induction of …

Purpose: To assess detached macula in rhegmatogenous retinal detachment by using
spectral-domain optical coherence tomography. Methods: This retrospective study included …

purpose. Retinal Müller glia in higher vertebrates have been reported to possess
progenitor cell properties and the ability to generate new neurons after injury. This study was …

Photoreceptor degeneration is the most critical cause of visual impairment in age-related
macular degeneration (AMD). In neovascular form of AMD, severe photoreceptor loss …
