As we get older, the vitreous &mdash; the gel-like fluid that fills human eyeballs and maintains their rounded shapes &mdash; shrinks away from the retina, which sometimes causes a tear in the macula.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>These injuries are consequential. The macula sits at the center of the retina and is the most active part of the eye, responsible for central \u003Ca href=\"https://quasa.io/media/neuralink-competitor-restores-vision-in-blind-patients-with-eye-implant\">vision \u003C/a>and light processing.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Thus, macular holes cause vision to blur and decline over time,&nbsp;and as&nbsp;\u003Cem>New Scientist&nbsp;\u003C/em>notes, current fixes &mdash; which are only an option in about 90 percent of cases &mdash; come at a cost: loss of peripheral vision. To treat macular holes, doctors will transfer cells from the outskirts of the retina to the middle. But if you&#39;re stealing cells from the outskirts of the eye, periphery vision gaps are somewhat inevitable. Tears are also&nbsp;known&nbsp;to reoccur.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>That&#39;s why researchers are interested in implanting&nbsp;stem cells&nbsp;to repair the problem. Rather than patching the macular hole with the limited cells already in the eye, stem cells present the option of introducing new cells entirely.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>For their study, the scientists started by growing a sheet of retinal cell precursors, derived from a human embryo.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Those cells were then transplanted into the right-side retina of a macular hole-plagued snow&nbsp;monkey&nbsp;that struggled to pass vision tests.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>After six months, the scientists re-tested the monkey&#39;s eyesight. Before the transplant, the monkey was able to focus its gaze on just 1.5 percent of dots in a series of tests. But six months into the transplant, the primate was, across three tests, able to fix its eye&#39;s gaze on between 11 and 26 percent of dots &mdash; a marked improvement.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, there are some thorny ethical considerations: to comprehensively examine the efficacy of the stem cell treatment beyond dot tests, the scientists had to remove the snow monkey&#39;s eye altogether. In doing so, though, the scientists&nbsp;\u003Cem>did\u003C/em>&nbsp;find that the retina had grown new visual cells.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>However, they couldn&#39;t tell whether those cells had grown out of the implanted stem cell or the monkey&#39;s native retina, meaning that scientists aren&#39;t sure exactly how the stem cells actually worked inside of the snow monkey&#39;s eye. Questions remain: did they sprout new cells on their own? Or did they spark regeneration in the primate&#39;s original cells?\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>More research needs to be done to determine whether this treatment is suitable for human eyes.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cp>Even so, the study reaffirms stem cells&#39; promise as an exciting future treatment for a range of ocular woes, including age-related vision decline.\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Chr />\n\u003Cp>Also read:\u003C/p>\n\n\u003Cul>\n\t\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"https://quasa.io/media/cornell-astronomer-hoping-the-james-webb-will-confirm-alien-life-in-2025\">Cornell Astronomer Hoping the James Webb Will Confirm Alien Life in 2025\u003C/a>\u003C/li>\n\t\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"https://quasa.io/media/the-simulation-is-clearly-glitching-because-bird-flu-has-been-detected-in-raw-milk\">The Simulation Is Clearly Glitching Because Bird Flu Has Been Detected in Raw Milk\u003C/a>\u003C/li>\n\t\u003Cli>\u003Ca href=\"https://quasa.io/media/scientists-use-ar-to-make-arachnophobes-see-huge-spiders\">Scientists Use AR to Make Arachnophobes See Huge Spiders\u003C/a>\u003C/li>\n\u003C/ul>\n\n\u003Chr />\n\u003Cp>Thank you!\u003Cbr />\nJoin us on social media!\u003Cbr />\nSee you!\u003C/p>","scientists-use-human-stem-cells-to-restore-a-monkey-s-vision","2024-11-01T10:13:33.000000Z","2024-11-02T11:00:00.000000Z","02.11.2024",{"image":81,"image_webp":82,"thumb":83,"thumb_webp":84},"https://cdn.quasa.io/images/news/9qOHji8kK6ZFra9z69GB9gHL3m6TwUNYn6iuPabD.jpg","https://cdn.quasa.io/images/news/9qOHji8kK6ZFra9z69GB9gHL3m6TwUNYn6iuPabD.webp","https://cdn.quasa.io/thumbs/news-thumb/images/news/9qOHji8kK6ZFra9z69GB9gHL3m6TwUNYn6iuPabD.jpg","https://cdn.quasa.io/thumbs/news-thumb/images/news/9qOHji8kK6ZFra9z69GB9gHL3m6TwUNYn6iuPabD.webp","small",null,1188,6,"en",0,{"id":42,"title":43,"slug":44,"meta_title":92,"meta_description":93,"meta_keywords":94,"deleted_at":86,"created_at":95,"updated_at":96,"lang":89},"Quasa media blog about growth hacking in Tech","All the most interesting and useful about technologies.
