  • The Molecular Progression from Retina Through Retinoma to Retinoblastoma and the Role of the P75(NTR) Neurotrophin Receptor

    In this thesis

    I looked at a potential role for p75NTR in retinoblastoma and retinoma development

    and analyzed the status of RB1 in retinoma. Retinoma results after complete RB1 loss

    but prior to p75NTR loss

    evident only in retinoblastoma. Unlike retina or retinoblastoma

    retinoma expresses senescence marker p16 INK4a.
