Embryonic stem cells growing in a dish can spontaneously form complex structures resembling the retinaa discovery that could one day help restore sight to the blind.
A clump of mouse embryonic stem cells can self-organize into three-dimensional structures reminiscent of the retina in the early stages of embryonic development, according to a new study published Wednesday in Nature. Researchers believe this process could one day serve as a source of cells to transplant into diseased and damaged retinasa potential way to restore sight to the blind.
