Here, we used deep full-length single-cell RNA-sequencing to distinguish post-mitotic cone and rod developmental states and cone-specific features that contribute to retinoblastomagenesis. The ...

This disrupts normal cell metabolism, leading to the death of photoreceptor cells and, eventually, geographic atrophy, which causes irreversible vision loss. Wet macular degeneration accounts for ...

11月15日，著名国际顶尖学术期刊《Cell》在线发表了深圳大学刘宏涛课题组题为“The Arabidopsis blue-light photoreceptor CRY2 is active in darkness to inhibit root growth”的研究论文。

Trilobites lived between 521 and 252 million years ago. They were one of the first groups of creatures to develop complex, compound eyes, where many individual lenses focus light onto groups of ...

Our ability to see starts with the light-sensitive photoreceptor cells in our eyes. A specific region of the retina, termed fovea, is responsible for sharp vision. Here, the color-sensitive cone ...
