Allogeneic Transplantation of Müller-Derived Retinal Ganglion Cells Improves Retinal Function in a Feline Model of Ganglion Cell Depletion
This study investigated the effect of allogeneic transplantation of feline Müller glia with the ability to differentiate into cells expressing retinal ganglion cell (RGC) markers, following ablation of RGCs by N-methyl-d-aspartate. The results suggest that Müller glia with stem cell characteristics...
