Retinal transplantation of photoreceptors results in donor–host cytoplasmic exchange
Integration of transplanted photoreceptors into the host retina has been assumed as the underlying mechanism for vision improvement in pre-clinical studies. Here, the authors show that the majority of transplanted photoreceptors do not structurally integrate but exchange intercellular material with...
