Furthermore, they no longer occupy space in the photoreceptor layer, so that more of the light can be captured. These factors might help to explain the inverted nature of the vertebrate retina.

The light-detecting part of the retina is formed of rod and cone photoreceptor cells that are responsible for everything we see. The lower third of this image depicts the layer of blood vessels ...

Bringing the retinal NFL (labeled P2𝑃2) into focus on the fundus camera facilitates the focusing of the STOC-T image on the photoreceptor layer in the retina (labeled P1𝑃1), after a ...

Visual perception begins as soon as the eye focuses light onto the retina, where it is absorbed by a layer of photoreceptor cells. These cells convert light into electrochemical signals ...

This accumulation eventually leads to the breakdown of the retinal layer called the retina pigment ... leading to the death of photoreceptor cells and, eventually, geographic atrophy, which ...

Based on in situ hybridization and hypothyroid studies, thyroid hormone appears to target photoreceptor development. The hormone may be acting in at least two ways. It could instruct neuronal ...

InMed Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: INM) , a leader in the research, development, manufacturing and commercialization of rare cannabinoids and proprietary cannabinoid analogs, is reporting on additional ...
