Researchers at The Scripps Institute in San Diego have found a way to repair and normalize blood vessels in the eyes of mice using stem cells obtained from bone marrow. The findings could have implications for developing human treatments for a certain type of eye diseases, such as a type of blindness that can occur in people with diabetes called diabetic retinopathy or retinopathy of prematurity.
