Generation of retinal ganglion cells with functional axons from human induced pluripotent stem cells
TL;DR: The ability to generate self-induced retinal ganglion cells with functional axons uniformly and at a high rate may contribute to both basic and clinical science, including embryology, neurology, pathognomy, and treatment of various optic nerve diseases that threaten vision.
PAX6 expression in the developing human eye.
Sachiko Nishina,Shinichi Kohsaka,Yuki Yamaguchi,Hiroshi Handa,Atsushi Kawakami,Hajime Fujisawa,Noriyuki Azuma +6 more
TL;DR: PA6 is expressed on the surface and neuroectoderms at an early stage, then in the differentiating cells in the cornea, lens, ciliary body, and retina through development, suggesting that PAX6 may play a role in determining cell fate in the morphogenesis of various human ocular tissue.
