New 3-D Eye Model

Morein-vivo like ModelWe see our world in 3-D. Diseases of the eye compromise this ability.Neuromics ' is pleased to announce that we have a3-D model aimed at accelerating drug discovery for these diseases. Sight is a terrible thing to lose and the faster new drugs can be discovered, fewer people will have to suffer the loss of sight.Our 3D Human Retinal Microvascular Angiogenesis model is constructed using GFP ‐Tagged human Retinal Microvascular Endothelial cells. They are co-cultured with RFP-Tagged human supporting cells. GFP positive human retinal capillary-like tubule formation can be monitored in real time under fluorescence microscope throughout the whole process of the experiment.
