Ethanol causes cell death and neuronal differentiation defect during initial neurogenesis of the neural retina by disrupting calcium signaling in human retinal organoids
Abstract:Background: Over 90% of children with fetal alcohol syndrome live with ocular aberration due to the susceptible and intricate human eye development process. Initial neurogenesis of the neural retina around six-week gestation is the critical period of human eye development while sustaining the highest risk of prenatal ethanol exposure because of ignorance of early pregnancy. However, the influence and mechanism of short-term ethanol exposure on this developmental process of the human neural retina remain largel… Show more
