Calcium sensor proteins play a crucial role in the functioning of photoreceptor cells, which are essential for vision. These proteins, particularly the guanylate cyclase-activating proteins (GCAPs ...

We see color because photoreceptor cones in our eyes detect light waves corresponding to red, green, and blue, while dimness ...

The companies will work together by using the codon-optimized BBS1 AAV9 vector to minimize the vision loss caused by the ...

A type of pineal photoreceptor cell that contains a protein called parapinopsin 1 (PP1) detects color. These PP1 cells become active and inactive in proportion to the difference in wavelength of ...

Osaka Metropolitan University researchers have elucidated how a single photoreceptor in the pineal gland of zebrafish detects ...

Inherited retinal diseases (IRDs) are a group of monogenic disorders caused by mutations in more than 280 genes, and are characterized by progressive degeneration of photoreceptor cells in the retina.

Researchers uncovered how zebrafish detect colors using photoreceptor cells in the pineal gland. The protein parapinopsin 1 ...

The Gonzales Lab at UNR Med, led by Albert Gonzales, Ph.D., assistant professor of physiology and cell biology, spearheaded ...

Jan. 28, 2025 — The latest findings on the interaction between cell death and cellular senescence in cancer and their pathophysiological significance have been ... Keeping the Steps of Cell ...

Lineage Cell Therapeutics, Inc. , a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing allogeneic cell therapies for unmet medical needs, today announced the closing of the second tranche of its ...
