El CRB1 gene provides instructions for making a protein that plays an essential role in normal vision. This protein is found in the brain and the retina, which is the specialized tissue at the back of the eye that detects light and colour.
Normal function
El CRB1 gene provides instructions for making a protein that plays an essential role in normal vision. This protein is found in the brain and the retina, which is the specialized tissue at the back of the eye that detects light and colour.
In the retina, the CRB1 protein appears to be critical for the normal development of light-sensing cells called photoreceptors. Studies suggest that this protein is part of a group (complex) of proteins that help determine the structure and orientation of photoreceptors. The CRB1 protein may also be involved in forming connections between different types of cells in the retina.

El sistema inmunológico
A person with a weak immune system might have difficulty fighting off infections. In autoimmune diseases the body is unable to tell what is its own and what is foreign, so it attacks itself. Autoimmune diseases can attack any part of the body - eg, type 1 diabetes (pancreas), multiple sclerosis (brain and nerves), systemic lupus erythematosus.

Policitemia vera
Polycythaemia rubra vera (PRV) is a myeloproliferative disorder, which means the bone marrow makes too many blood cells. There is an abnormally high number of red blood cells in your blood. You may also have an abnormally high number of platelets and white blood cells. Blood cells, which can be seen under a microscope, make up about 40% of the.

Myelofibrosis
Myelofibrosis es a condition affecting the bone marrow and its blood cell production. What is myelofibrosis. Myelofibrosis belongs to a group of diseases called myeloproliferative disorders. Myelofibrosis is a serious bone marrow disorder that disrupts your body's normal production of blood cells. This leads to reduced levels of: Red blood cells.

Trasplante de células madre
A trasplante de células madre is where blood stem cells (the cells produced by the bone marrow to turn into different types of blood cells) are put back into your body when your bone marrow has been destroyed and cannot make stem cells itself. The bone marrow can be destroyed by diseases such as cancer, chemotherapy or radiotherapy. It is used to.

Leucemia linfoblástica aguda
El immature cells son called lymphoblasts. There are various subtypes of ALL. For example, the abnormal lymphoblasts can be immature B or T lymphocytes. The abnormal lymphoblasts continue to divide and multiply but do not mature into proper lymphocytes. Typically, ALL develops quite quickly (acutely) and rapidly becomes worse (over a few weeks or.
