In Irvine California researchers report adult nervous system stem cells may regenerate damaged retinal and brain areas. UC Irvine neurobiology professor Anne Calof and student Joon Kim show GDF1 inhibits retinal stem cell development, limiting optic nerve size. future work aims to block GDFs with drugs to promote repair, potentially treating retinal diseases like macular degeneration.
