Transplanted neurons integrate into adult retinas and respond to light
Replacing lost retinal ganglion cells is a potential treatment for optic neuropathies such as glaucoma. Here, the authors show that transplanted donor RGCs can successfully integrate into a mature host retina in vivo, projecting axons along the intact visual pathway and responding to light stimuli.
