Abstract: Emerging evidence indicates that diabetes disturbs photoreceptor function and vitamin A homeostasis. However, the biochemical basis of this phenotype is not well established. Here, we compared the effects of streptozotocin-induced diabetes in wild-type (WT) mice… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms24065387
Abstract: Despite the obvious morphological differences in the visual system, zebrafish share a similar architecture and components of the same embryonic origin as humans. The zebrafish retina has the same layered structure and cell types with… read more here.
