TLDR
In this histopathologic study of retinoblastomas exhibiting an unusual form of dif­ ferentiation, it seemed apparent that these tumors were producing structures resem­ bling elements of the photoreceptor cell.

Immunohistochemistry of retinoblastoma. A review.

TL;DR: The majority of studies appear to support the concept that retinoblastomas arise, in situ, from neuron committed cells and in some cases specifically into photoreceptor-like cells, in selected cases, however, glial cell differentiation may be a feature of the tumor.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cell death and disposal in retinoblastoma: an electron microscopic study

TL;DR: The types of cell death observed in retinoblastoma exhibited similarities to patterns observed in ischemic retina, as well as in other malignant tumors, suggesting type II cell death (apoptosis) may play a role in limiting tumor growth.
Book ChapterDOI

Spezielle Pathologie der Retina

TL;DR: In diesem Kapitel werden Erkrankungen der sensorischen Netzhaut und des retinalen Pigmentepithels abgehandelt und die Zuordnung bestimmter degenerativer und dystrophischer Prozesse zu Uvea oder Retina mag gelegentlich willkurlich erscheinen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human Retinal Dysplasia

TL;DR: The normal developmental sequence of cell death and disappearance of necrotic cells may have gone awry in retinal dysplasia, leading to abnormal relationship between the retina and the retinal pigment epithelium.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glycine release from Y79 retinoblastoma cells.

TL;DR: The results indicate that K + ‐ and veratridine‐stimulated glycine release occurs in Y79 retinoblastoma cells, providing additional evidence that this continuously cultured line may be a useful model for certain human retinal and central nervous system functions.

Cilia and Flagella

Don Fawcett
TL;DR: Cilia are motile, hairlike appendages on the free surface of cells that play an important role in such diverse physiological processes as locomotion, alimentation, circulation, respiration, reproduction, and sensory reception.
Journal ArticleDOI

Beiträge zur Histogenese und Histologie der Netzhaut, des Pigmentepithels und des Sehnerven

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present an overview of the evolution of the Retinazelle and its relationship with the rest of the body of work in the field of physicologischen excavations.
