This study shows that human Muller glia can proliferate and differentiate into multiple retinal cell types when exposed to FGF-2 and GSK-3 inhibition.

This paper engineers human TRPV1 channels to detect near-infrared light by shifting their temperature sensitivity, enabling light-induced heat activation in retinal cells without immunogenicity issues.

This study compares cell-type development and transcriptomes in human retinal organoids and adult retinas, finding convergence in transcriptomes and cell-type-specific disease gene expression.

The paper develops synthetic promoter AAVs for cell-type-specific gene delivery in mice, non-human primates, and humans, showing 11% of AAVs target neuronal and glial cell types in multiple species.
